Bluesky + Codex integration
Connect Bluesky to Codex
ConnectChats brings your Bluesky chats into Codex. Ask Codex to catch you up, find any message and draft replies. Nothing gets sent until you approve it.
Free to start. No app to install. Every send needs your OK.
What Codex can do with your Bluesky
ConnectChats gives Codex a small set of tools. Codex calls them when you ask about your Bluesky chats, and only for the chats you share.
-
Catch you up
Ask what you missed and Codex reads your unread Bluesky chats, then gives you the short version: who needs an answer, what was decided, what can wait.
get_messages_to_summarize -
Find any message
The address someone sent last month, the price a client agreed to, the link from a group chat. Codex searches your Bluesky history and quotes the message.
search_messages -
Draft replies
Codex writes the reply in your tone, in the chat's language, with the context of the whole thread. You read it, edit it, and send it.
draft_reply -
Send with your OK
When you approve a draft, ConnectChats sends it from your own Bluesky account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

-
Add ConnectChats to Codex

-

-

How Bluesky and Codex work together
ConnectChats connects to your Bluesky direct messages with a Bluesky app password that has access to your DMs. Your main password stays private, and your AI app sees only the conversations you choose.
-
Bluesky in ConnectChats
Your direct messages appear in the dashboard, where you choose which conversations your AI app can see. Only direct messages are included. Posts, replies and your feed are not. An app password can be revoked in Bluesky at any time without changing your main password. Messages your AI app sends go out from your own account, after you approve them.

ConnectChats in Codex
Codex adds remote MCP servers from the command line and keeps them in config.toml. Add ConnectChats once, sign in with your passkey, and Codex can read and search the chats you share. The command writes a [mcp_servers.connectchats] entry with url = "https://api.connectchats.com/mcp" to ~/.codex/config.toml. You can also add it there by hand. Codex CLI, the Codex IDE extension and the desktop app share this configuration, so you set it up once. On a machine without a browser, run codex mcp login connectchats --no-browser, open the printed link elsewhere and paste the redirect URL back. Codex needs a ChatGPT plan that includes Codex, or an OpenAI API key.
Your Bluesky stays under your control
-
You pick the chats
Codex only sees the Bluesky chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.
-
Drafts by default
Codex prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches Bluesky, unless you turn on auto-send for that chat.
-
Stored messages are encrypted
Stored messages are encrypted with a key that only your passkey can unlock. We never train models on your messages.
Questions
Can Codex read my Bluesky messages?
Yes, once you link Bluesky in ConnectChats and add ConnectChats to Codex. Codex reads only the chats you share, and only when you ask it something that needs them.
Can Codex send Bluesky messages for me?
Codex can draft a reply and send it after you approve it. Messages go out from your own Bluesky account. You can allow automatic sending for specific chats, and it stays off everywhere else.
Is the Bluesky to Codex integration free?
Yes. The free plan links two chat apps and works in every supported AI app, with no limit on what you ask. No card needed.
Do I need to install anything?
No. You add ConnectChats inside Codex and link Bluesky from your browser. There is no app to download and nothing runs on your computer.
Does it work with other AI apps too?
Yes. The same ConnectChats account works in ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Manus, Muse and any AI app that supports remote MCP servers. Link Bluesky once and use it everywhere.
Does it read my Bluesky posts?
No. ConnectChats is for messages, so only your direct messages come through.
What do I need to link Bluesky?
Your Bluesky handle and an app password that is allowed to access direct messages. Create it in Bluesky under Settings, Privacy and security, App passwords, then enter both at https://connectchats.com/app.
Is this the same as adding ConnectChats to ChatGPT?
No. ChatGPT on the web does not read your Codex config, so you add ConnectChats there separately. Both use the same ConnectChats account.
Can Codex send messages from a script?
Codex can create drafts in any run. They are only sent after you approve them, unless you turn on auto-send for that chat.
