Connect Google Messages to OpenClaw

• Catch you up

  Ask what you missed and OpenClaw reads your unread Google Messages 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. OpenClaw searches your Google Messages history and quotes the message.

  search_messages

• Draft replies

  OpenClaw 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 Google Messages account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

   Ask OpenClaw about your Google Messages

   Open a new conversation in OpenClaw and ask about your chats. OpenClaw calls ConnectChats when it needs your messages.

• Google Messages in ConnectChats

  SMS, MMS and RCS chats, including group chats, are supported. Your phone sends and receives the texts, so it needs to stay on and connected to the internet. Each linked chat starts with its last 200 messages, then every new message arrives as it is sent. This is for Android phones. On iPhone, texts go through iMessage, which needs a Mac.

• ConnectChats in OpenClaw

  OpenClaw adds remote MCP servers from its command line or its config file, and ConnectChats works there as one of them. Add it once, sign in with your passkey, and your agent can catch you up on your chats and draft replies you approve. OpenClaw was called Clawdbot, then Moltbot, before taking its current name. OpenClaw runs on your own machine or server, so you control where it lives. ConnectChats itself is hosted, so your chat apps stay linked even when your OpenClaw machine is off. OpenClaw already talks to you through chat apps. ConnectChats is different: it gives the agent read and draft access to your own chats, with approval before anything is sent. The same ConnectChats account works in every AI app, so the chats you already linked are available in OpenClaw without linking them again.

• You pick the chats

  OpenClaw only sees the Google Messages chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.

• Drafts by default

  OpenClaw prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches Google Messages, 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.
