# Connect WhatsApp to Codex | Sealgate Connect WhatsApp to Codex with one command. Let Codex read, triage, and reply across WhatsApp through SealGate and Beeper, with your login kept on your device. Source: https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/codex --- // Safety net only. Both entry points preload the chunk they are about to // render, so in practice nothing here suspends. It exists so a route // added without a matching SPLIT_ROUTES entry degrades to a blank frame // instead of throwing.

Paste this into your coding agent, or run it yourself in a terminal. Please help me connect my messaging apps to SealGate on my machine by running this installer: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Edison-Watch/app/main/crates/stdiod/scripts/install-beeper.sh | bash -s -- install --install-deps --yes Source code: github.com/edison-watch/app Copy Requires macOS with the Beeper desktop app installed. ## Connecting Codex Codex adds the SealGate gateway as an MCP server in its configuration, so it can call your messaging tools straight from the terminal as you work. See the [Codex setup guide](https://sealgate.ai/docs/getting-started) for the exact steps. ## What Codex can do with WhatsApp - Draft replies to your unread WhatsApp chats and send them once you approve. - Summarize busy family or work group chats and pull out the action items. - Send the same update to a list of contacts without copy and pasting. - Search past conversations to answer a question or find a shared file. ## Why connect WhatsApp through SealGate One setup for every app, works with cloud and mobile agents, fully governed and logged, and your logins stay on your device. ### 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, so access stays under your control. ### Your logins stay on your device Credentials and message data never reach SealGate's servers. The connector runs on your machine. ## Related guides [WhatsApp to ChatGPT](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/chatgpt) [WhatsApp to Claude](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/claude) [WhatsApp to Devin](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/devin) [WhatsApp to GitHub Copilot](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/copilot) [WhatsApp to Grok](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/grok) [WhatsApp to Grokbot](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/grokbot) [WhatsApp to Hermes](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/hermes) [iMessage to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/imessage/codex) [Telegram to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/telegram/codex) [LinkedIn DMs to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/linkedin/codex) [Signal to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/signal/codex) [Instagram DMs to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/codex) [Messenger to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/messenger/codex) [X DMs to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/x/codex) [Discord DMs to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/discord/codex) [LINE to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/line/codex) [All WhatsApp setups](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp) ## Connecting WhatsApp to Codex: FAQ Can Codex read and send WhatsApp messages? Yes. Codex adds the SealGate gateway as an MCP server, which lets it use your WhatsApp tools. Because it runs on your own machine, you can work with WhatsApp straight from the terminal while you code. Can ChatGPT or Claude send WhatsApp messages? Yes. Once you connect WhatsApp through SealGate, your agent can read your chats and send messages to contacts or groups, whether it runs locally or in the cloud like the ChatGPT and Claude mobile apps. Do I need the WhatsApp Business API? No. SealGate connects to your own WhatsApp account through the Beeper desktop app, so there is no separate Business API account or third-party number to provision. Is it safe to give an AI agent access to WhatsApp? Your WhatsApp login stays on your machine and is never stored on SealGate's servers. Every tool call the agent makes runs through SealGate policy checks and is written to an audit log, so you control and can review exactly what it did. Does it work with cloud agents, not just CLI tools? Yes. A small local daemon called stdiod tunnels your local WhatsApp connector out to any cloud or mobile agent, so apps like ChatGPT and Claude on your phone can use it too. Want the full walkthrough?
