Feature
Auto-send, one chat at a time
Auto-send lets send_message deliver without your approval in a chat you pick. It is off in every chat until you switch it on and confirm the warning.
Free to start. No install. Every send needs your OK.
What it does
Each chat in your dashboard has an Auto-send switch next to Share with my AI. When it is on, a send_message call in that chat goes straight to the chat app.
Nothing else changes: draft_reply still only drafts, other chats still need your approval, and delivery is still confirmed by the chat app.
The MCP tool behind it
send_message
Auto-send is not a separate tool. It changes what send_message does in one chat: send at once instead of creating a draft.
Sent.needs_approval
Draft saved. Ask the user to approve it: https://app.connectchats.com/drafts/d_8kz31How it behaves
-
Off by default
Every chat starts with auto-send off, whatever its sharing setting.
-
A warning before it turns on
The dashboard asks you to confirm: With auto-send on, your AI can send messages in this chat without asking you. A message from someone else could trick it into sending something you did not intend. Turn this on only for chats you trust.
-
Off in one click
Turning auto-send off takes effect at once, with no confirmation.
-
Same delivery checks
A message is reported as sent only after the chat app confirms delivery.

Controls and limits
-
One switch per chat
Auto-send is set chat by chat in the dashboard.
-
Only you can turn it on
Your AI cannot change the setting. No tool can.
Limits to know
- Auto-send is one switch per chat. Rules by keyword, contact or time of day are not available.
- It does not make ConnectChats reply on its own. A message is sent only when your AI app runs and calls send_message.
- Text from other people can try to steer your AI. With auto-send on, there is no approval step to catch it.
Questions
Can my AI turn auto-send on?
No. It is a setting in your ConnectChats dashboard, behind a confirmation. No tool can change it.
Which chats should get auto-send?
Chats you trust, where a wrong message is cheap to fix: your partner, close friends, your own notes. Keep it off for strangers, customers and large groups.
Is it an autoresponder?
No. No bot watches your chats. Auto-send only removes the approval step when your AI sends a message.
