# Connect Signal to Town

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

Part of the [Signal setup guide](https://sealgate.ai/connect/signal) , 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 Signal to Town 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 first, since starting there pre-approves the Beeper connector. Then follow the setup steps at https://sealgate.ai/connect/signal/town.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.

Copy

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

## Connecting Town

Town adds the SealGate gateway as a custom remote MCP server, where you enter the gateway's URL, so it works even though Town runs in the cloud instead of on your laptop. See the [Town setup guide](https://sealgate.ai/docs/getting-started) for the exact steps.

## What Town can do with Signal

- Triage new Signal messages and draft replies for you to approve.

- Summarize a group thread so you catch up quickly.

- Search past conversations for a link, file, or detail.

- Every tool call runs through SealGate policy and an audit log, and you approve each send.

## Why connect Signal 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 Signal to Town: FAQ

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

Can I connect ChatGPT or Claude to Signal? Yes. Once you connect Signal through SealGate, your agent can read and send messages, from local tools or cloud apps like ChatGPT and Claude.

Does connecting Signal to an AI break its privacy? Your Signal login never reaches SealGate's servers, and while message content routes through SealGate in transit it is never stored. Be deliberate about it though: any agent you connect can read the messages you point it at, so only grant access to agents and policies you trust.

Does SealGate see my Signal messages? Only the gateway does, and only programmatically. SealGate routes every tool call and checks it against your policies in memory before passing it on, but no one at SealGate can read your messages. Your connector credentials are encrypted and stay on your machine, and SealGate keeps only call metadata, never your message content, so nothing about the conversation is retained after the call.

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.

Does it work with cloud agents, not just CLI tools? Yes. A small local daemon called stdiod tunnels your local Signal connector to any cloud or mobile agent, so apps like ChatGPT and Claude can use it too, not just CLI tools on the same machine.
