Claude To Im

Bridge Claude Code / Codex to IM platforms — chat with AI coding agents from Telegram, Discord, Feishu/Lark, QQ, or WeChat.

> Want a desktop GUI instead? Check out CodePilot — a full-featured desktop app with visual chat interface, session management, file tree preview, permission controls, and more. This skill was extracted from CodePilot's IM bridge module for users who prefer a lightweight, CLI-only setup.

How It Works

This skill runs a background daemon that connects your IM bots to Claude Code or Codex sessions. Messages from IM are forwarded to the AI coding agent, and responses (including tool use, permission requests, streaming previews) are sent back to your chat.

You (Telegram/Discord/Feishu/QQ/WeChat)
  ↕ Bot API
Background Daemon (Node.js)
  ↕ Claude Agent SDK or Codex SDK (configurable via CTI_RUNTIME)
Claude Code / Codex → reads/writes your codebase

Features

• Five IM platforms — Telegram, Discord, Feishu/Lark, QQ, WeChat — enable any combination
• Interactive setup — guided wizard collects tokens with step-by-step instructions
• Permission control — tool calls require explicit approval via inline buttons (Telegram/Discord) or text /perm commands / quick 1/2/3 replies (Feishu/QQ/WeChat)
• Streaming preview — see Claude's response as it types (Telegram & Discord)
• Session persistence — conversations survive daemon restarts
• Secret protection — tokens stored with chmod 600, auto-redacted in all logs
• Zero code required — install the skill and run /claude-to-im setup, or tell Codex claude-to-im setup

Prerequisites

• Node.js >= 20
• Claude Code CLI (for CTI_RUNTIME=claude or auto) — installed and authenticated (claude command available)
• Codex CLI (for CTI_RUNTIME=codex or auto) — npm install -g @openai/codex. Auth: run codex auth login, or set OPENAI_API_KEY (optional, for API mode)

Installation

Choose the section that matches the AI agent product you actually use.

Claude Code

Recommended: npx skills

npx skills add op7418/Claude-to-IM-skill

After installation, tell Claude Code:

/claude-to-im setup

If you want WeChat specifically, you can also say:

帮我接微信

Alternative: clone directly into Claude Code skills

git clone https://github.com/op7418/Claude-to-IM-skill.git ~/.claude/skills/claude-to-im

Claude Code discovers it automatically.

Alternative: symlink for development

git clone https://github.com/op7418/Claude-to-IM-skill.git ~/code/Claude-to-IM-skill
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
ln -s ~/code/Claude-to-IM-skill ~/.claude/skills/claude-to-im

Codex

Recommended: use the Codex install script

git clone https://github.com/op7418/Claude-to-IM-skill.git ~/code/Claude-to-IM-skill
bash ~/code/Claude-to-IM-skill/scripts/install-codex.sh

For local development with a live checkout:

bash ~/code/Claude-to-IM-skill/scripts/install-codex.sh --link

The install script places the skill under ~/.codex/skills/claude-to-im, installs dependencies, and builds the daemon.

After installation, tell Codex:

claude-to-im setup

If you want WeChat specifically, you can also say:

帮我接微信桥接

Alternative: clone directly into Codex skills

git clone https://github.com/op7418/Claude-to-IM-skill.git ~/.codex/skills/claude-to-im
cd ~/.codex/skills/claude-to-im
npm install
npm run build

Verify installation

Claude Code: Start a new session and type / — you should see claude-to-im in the skill list. Or ask Claude: "What skills are available?"

Codex: Start a new session and say claude-to-im setup, start bridge, or 帮我接微信桥接.

Updating the Skill

Choose the update flow that matches both your AI agent product and your installation method.

Claude Code

If you installed with npx skills, re-run:

npx skills add op7418/Claude-to-IM-skill

If you installed via git clone or symlink:

cd ~/.claude/skills/claude-to-im
git pull
npm install
npm run build

Then tell Claude Code:

/claude-to-im doctor
/claude-to-im start

Codex

If you installed with the Codex install script in copy mode:

rm -rf ~/.codex/skills/claude-to-im
bash ~/code/Claude-to-IM-skill/scripts/install-codex.sh
