Connect GroupMe to Claude Code

• Catch you up

  Ask what you missed and Claude Code reads your unread GroupMe 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. Claude Code searches your GroupMe history and quotes the message.

  search_messages

• Draft replies

  Claude Code 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 GroupMe account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

3. 3

   Pick the chats Claude Code can see

   Every chat is listed in your ConnectChats dashboard. Share all of them or only the ones you choose. Claude Code never sees the rest.

4. 4

   Ask Claude Code about your GroupMe

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

• GroupMe in ConnectChats

  Groups and direct messages are both supported. GroupMe works with SMS for members without the app. Those members' messages come through like any other. You can stop sharing a group with your AI app at any time from the dashboard. Messages your AI app sends go out from your own account, after you approve them.

• ConnectChats in Claude Code

  Claude Code adds remote MCP servers with one command. Add ConnectChats, sign in once with your passkey, and you can ask Claude Code about your chats without leaving the terminal. The --scope user option makes ConnectChats available in every project. Leave it out to add it to the current project only. Claude Code needs a Claude Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise plan, or an Anthropic Console account. Tokens refresh on their own. To sign out, open /mcp and choose Clear authentication, or run claude mcp logout connectchats. Sign in once in an interactive session. Scripts and headless runs reuse the saved sign-in but cannot complete it.

• You pick the chats

  Claude Code only sees the GroupMe chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.

• Drafts by default

  Claude Code prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches GroupMe, 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.
