Real-time messaging between Claude sessions (CLI + Desktop + other-devices) — automatic ask/reply, no copy-pasting. Zero deps, localhost-first, MCP-based. Optional cross-network linking.
README
Let any two Claude sessions — CLI or the Desktop app — talk to each other in real time. No more copy-pasting between windows: sessions ask and answer each other's questions automatically, no hand-holding. Same machine or across the network.
⚡ zero deps · 🔒 localhost, 100% free · 🧩 MCP-server · 🪝 skill + hooks, 💻 cross device
Two real Claude sessions (Desktop on the left, CLI on the right) talking to each other through the bridge. No human in the loop for the routing.
