Thin skill wrapper over the existing kei-message jsonl mailbox so the user (and agents) can talk between Claude Code sessions with @id syntax: /msg read my inbox (to me or "all") /msg @frontend text send to a session (identity = its cwd basename) /msg all text broadcast /msg list | who whole bus / known recipients - kei-message.sh send now accepts a leading @name as the recipient (first token only; a later @x stays literal). --to still works. - skills/msg/SKILL.md documents the identity model (cwd-basename), pull delivery (recipient's next turn via mailbox-inject hook), and the first-contact discovery path (who / all). - README skills count 68 -> 69. Verified: @name/all/--to parsing (3 cases) + end-to-end send/inbox/who via the live script in a sandbox HOME. Skill registered + discoverable.

description: Read or write the cross-session mailbox by @id. Send a message to another Claude Code session (`/msg @name text`), read your own inbox (`/msg` with no args), broadcast to everyone (`/msg all text`), list the whole bus, or discover who is reachable. Thin wrapper over the `kei message` jsonl mailbox — messages land in the recipient's NEXT turn via the mailbox-inject hook (pull, not push). Use whenever the user wants sessions/agents to talk to each other.

# /msg — Inter-Session Mailbox
|
|
|
|
A persistent append-only bus so ANY Claude Code session can message ANY other —
|
|
not just Agent-Teams teammates, no tmux, no daemon. Backed by
|
|
`~/.claude/scripts/kei-message.sh` writing `~/.claude/mailbox/messages.jsonl`.
|
|
The `mailbox-inject.sh` UserPromptSubmit hook pulls each session's unread into
|
|
its context once per turn, so delivery is **pull** (arrives on the recipient's
|
|
next turn), not instant push.
|
|
|
|
## Identity model
|
|
|
|
- **Your address** = the basename of this session's working directory (`$PWD`).
|
|
So a session running in `~/Projects/frontend` is reachable as `@frontend`.
|
|
- **`all`** is the broadcast channel — every session sees `to:"all"` messages.
|
|
- You can override the sender with `--from <name>` and the reader identity with
|
|
`--me <name>` if a session's cwd basename isn't the name you want to use.
|
|
|
|
## Command map
|
|
|
|
Interpret `$ARGUMENTS` and run the matching command via Bash, then show its
|
|
output to the user. The launcher `kei message …` and the script path are
|
|
equivalent — prefer the script path (always present after install):
|
|
|
|
| User typed | Run |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `/msg` (no args) | `~/.claude/scripts/kei-message.sh inbox` |
|
|
| `/msg @frontend ship it` | `~/.claude/scripts/kei-message.sh send @frontend ship it` |
|
|
| `/msg all standup in 5` | `~/.claude/scripts/kei-message.sh send all standup in 5` |
|
|
| `/msg list` | `~/.claude/scripts/kei-message.sh list` |
|
|
| `/msg who` (or `channels`) | `~/.claude/scripts/kei-message.sh channels` |
|
|
|
|
Rules for parsing `$ARGUMENTS`:
|
|
|
|
1. **Empty** → read inbox (`inbox`). Show the messages addressed to this
|
|
session or to `all`.
|
|
2. **Starts with `@<name>`** → send to that recipient; the rest is the body.
|
|
A `@x` that appears later in the body stays literal text.
|
|
3. **Starts with `all `** → broadcast; the rest is the body.
|
|
4. **`list`** → print the recent whole bus (every from→to line).
|
|
5. **`who` / `channels`** → print known recipient names (use this to discover
|
|
who is reachable before sending the first message).
|
|
6. Anything else with no leading `@`/`all` → treat as a broadcast body, OR ask
|
|
the user who the recipient is if it's ambiguous.
|
|
|
|
## Discovery (first-message problem)
|
|
|
|
A recipient only appears in `who` after it has sent or been sent a message, so
|
|
for the very first contact either broadcast with `all`, or ask the user for the
|
|
target session's cwd-basename. Don't invent a recipient name.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- Sending never blocks and never notifies the recipient out-of-band — they see
|
|
it on their next turn. For a time-sensitive ping, tell the user it's queued.
|
|
- This is plain files: `cat ~/.claude/mailbox/messages.jsonl` is the raw bus.
|
|
- Bypass the inject hook for a session with `KEI_MAILBOX_BYPASS=1`.
