# Connect iMessage to Devin

Let Devin read, triage, and reply across iMessage, governed by SealGate and policy-checked on every call.

Part of the [iMessage setup guide](https://sealgate.ai/connect/imessage) , which covers every agent and how the connection works under the hood.

Paste this into your coding agent, or run it yourself in a terminal.

Please help me connect iMessage to Devin through SealGate on my machine. If I do not already have a SealGate account, have me sign up at https://dashboard.sealgate.ai/start/personal-messaging?utm_source=sealgate.ai&utm_campaign=seo-connect&utm_content=imessage-devin first, since starting there pre-approves the Beeper connector. Then follow the setup steps at https://sealgate.ai/connect/imessage/devin.md and stop whenever I need to act myself: approving this device in the browser when the installer asks, and, only if I already had an account, approving the Beeper connector in the SealGate dashboard.

Requires macOS or Windows (Linux is experimental) with the Beeper desktop app installed.

## Connecting Devin

Devin adds the SealGate gateway as a custom remote MCP server, either in Cloud Devin's Connections settings or through the Devin CLI, so it works even though Cloud Devin runs in Cognition's cloud instead of on your laptop. See the [Devin setup guide](https://sealgate.ai/docs/connect-clients/devin) for the exact steps.

## What Devin can do with iMessage

- Triage unread texts and draft replies in your own voice for you to send.

- Summarize a long thread so you catch up in seconds.

- Find that address, link, or photo someone texted you weeks ago.

- Turn a text conversation into a task or calendar note.

Ready to let Devin handle your iMessage? Paste the setup prompt into your coding agent and you are connected in a couple of minutes.

## Why connect iMessage through SealGate

One setup for every app, works with cloud and mobile agents, fully governed and logged, and your messages are never stored.

### One setup, every network

The same command connects your whole unified inbox, so you are not wiring up a separate bridge for each app.

### Works with cloud and mobile agents

A local daemon tunnels the connector out, so ChatGPT, Claude, and other cloud agents can use it, not just CLI tools.

### Governed and logged

Every tool call runs through SealGate policies and lands in an audit trail that records only metadata, never your message content, so access stays under your control.

### SealGate never stores your messages

Message content only passes through in transit to be checked against your policies, and is never stored or read by anyone at SealGate.

## Connecting iMessage to Devin: FAQ

Can Devin read and send iMessage messages? Yes. Devin adds the SealGate gateway as a remote MCP server, which lets it use your iMessage tools. A local daemon tunnels the connector out, so even Cloud Devin running in Cognition's cloud can reach it.

Do I need a Mac? iMessage runs on Apple's network, so connecting it through the Beeper desktop app needs an Apple device signed in to iMessage. Once connected, any agent you point at it can use it.

Where do my messages go? Your iMessage history and login are never stored on SealGate's servers. When your agent makes a call, the request and response route through SealGate to be policy checked in memory, and only metadata about the call is logged (which tool ran, when, and which agent ran it). SealGate never stores the message content itself.

What does SealGate store about my messages? SealGate routes each tool call to your connector and back, holding the request and response in memory only long enough to apply your policies, then discarding them. That check is automated: the gateway inspects the traffic programmatically to enforce your rules, and no one at SealGate can read your messages. They are never persisted and never used to train any model. SealGate keeps only call metadata (which tool ran, when, and which agent ran it), never the tool-call parameters or results, so your conversations and who you are talking to are never stored on SealGate's servers.

Can the agent send texts, or only read them? Both. You decide through SealGate policies whether a given agent can only read, or can also send, and every send is recorded in the audit log as metadata (that it happened, when, and by which agent), never the text of the message itself.
