+# iMessage
+
+iMessage channels let a Mastra agent receive direct messages and group messages from iMessage. Mastra handles the agent wiring, the webhook route, and the gateway listener; the Photon iMessage adapter docs cover number provisioning, credentials, and webhook registration.
+
+## Install the adapter
+
+Install the Photon iMessage adapter:
+
+**npm**:
+
+```bash
+npm install @photon-ai/chat-adapter-imessage
+```
+
+**pnpm**:
+
+```bash
+pnpm add @photon-ai/chat-adapter-imessage
+```
+
+**Yarn**:
+
+```bash
+yarn add @photon-ai/chat-adapter-imessage
+```
+
+**Bun**:
+
+```bash
+bun add @photon-ai/chat-adapter-imessage
+```
+
+## Agent configuration
+
+Add `createiMessageAdapter()` to the agent's `channels.adapters` object:
+
+```typescript
+import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
+import { createiMessageAdapter } from '@photon-ai/chat-adapter-imessage'
+
+export const imessageAgent = new Agent({
+  id: 'imessage-agent',
+  name: 'iMessage Agent',
+  instructions: 'Answer questions and help with tasks over iMessage.',
+  model: 'openai/gpt-5.6-sol',
+  channels: {
+    adapters: {
+      imessage: {
+        adapter: createiMessageAdapter(),
+        toolDisplay: 'text',
+      },
+    },
+    threadContext: { maxMessages: 0 },
+  },
+})
+```
+
+Register the agent on the Mastra instance:
+
+```typescript
+import { Mastra } from '@mastra/core'
+import { imessageAgent } from './agents/imessage-agent'
+
+export const mastra = new Mastra({
+  agents: { imessageAgent },
+})
+```
+
+Use `imessage` as the adapter key. Mastra derives the webhook path and the `platform` value on `requestContext` from this key.
+
+`toolDisplay: 'text'` describes tool calls in the message, since iMessage has no interactive cards for Approve and Deny actions. `threadContext: { maxMessages: 0 }` skips the platform history lookup Mastra runs when an agent is first mentioned in a group chat, which the adapter can't perform. Both override defaults that assume platform features iMessage lacks.
+
+## Adapter setup
+
+Follow the [Photon iMessage adapter docs](https://github.com/photon-hq/vercel-chat-adapter-imessage) for iMessage-specific setup, including number provisioning, hosted and self-hosted modes, and webhook registration. The adapter picks its mode from the environment variables you set.
+
+For the hosted service, create a project at [app.photon.codes](https://app.photon.codes) and use the project credentials:
+
+```bash
+IMESSAGE_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id
+IMESSAGE_PROJECT_SECRET=your-project-secret
+IMESSAGE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your-webhook-signing-secret
+```
+
+For a self-hosted server, point the adapter at its gRPC address, written as `host:port`. The adapter strips any URL scheme and appends `:443` to a bare host:
+
+```bash
+IMESSAGE_SERVER_URL=imessage.example.com:443
+IMESSAGE_API_KEY=your-server-token
+IMESSAGE_PHONE=+15551234567
+```
+
+`IMESSAGE_PHONE` is optional and routes messages when a self-hosted server has several numbers. You can also pass these values to `createiMessageAdapter()` directly, including a `credentials` function that resolves the project ID and secret at first use from a secret store.
+
+## Webhook URL
+
+Mastra generates the iMessage webhook route from the agent ID and adapter key:
+
+```text
+/api/agents/imessage-agent/channels/imessage/webhook
+```
+
+Use your public Mastra server URL as the base URL:
+
+```text
+https://your-app.example.com/api/agents/imessage-agent/channels/imessage/webhook
+```
+
+Register this URL in the [Photon dashboard](https://app.photon.codes), then set the signing secret it returns as `IMESSAGE_WEBHOOK_SECRET`. The secret is shown once at registration. The adapter verifies the signature on every delivery and rejects requests that don't match. Webhooks are available in hosted mode only.
+
+Photon retries failed deliveries with backoff and delivers at least once, so the same message can arrive twice. Chat SDK drops the repeat using the channel state adapter, and Mastra's default keeps those dedup keys in memory. That covers a single long-running server.
+
+A repeat can still reach the agent after a restart, or on serverless where the retry is routed to a different instance. Pass a shared state adapter on `channels.state` so dedup keys are visible everywhere. Install one alongside the adapter:
+
+**npm**:
+
+```bash
+npm install @chat-adapter/state-redis
+```
+
+**pnpm**:
+
+```bash
+pnpm add @chat-adapter/state-redis
+```
+
+**Yarn**:
+
+```bash
+yarn add @chat-adapter/state-redis
+```
+
+**Bun**:
+
+```bash
+bun add @chat-adapter/state-redis
+```
+
+`createRedisState()` reads the `REDIS_URL` environment variable:
+
+```typescript
+import { createRedisState } from '@chat-adapter/state-redis'
+
+channels: {
+  adapters: {
+    imessage: {
+      adapter: createiMessageAdapter(),
+      toolDisplay: 'text',
+    },
+  },
+  threadContext: { maxMessages: 0 },
+  state: createRedisState(),
+},
+```
+
+This matters most for tools with side effects, where handling the same message twice is visible to the user.
+
+> **Note:** Photon delivers to public HTTPS endpoints only. It won't deliver to `http://`, to private addresses like `localhost`, or through a redirect. For local development, use a tunnel as described in the [Channels overview](https://mastra.ai/docs/capabilities/channels/overview).
+
+## Gateway listener
+
+The adapter can hold an open connection and stream messages in real time instead of receiving webhooks. This works in both hosted and self-hosted modes.
+
+Mastra starts this listener during initialization and reconnects it if it drops, so no cron job or extra route is needed on a long-running server. Set `gateway: false` on the adapter config to turn it off when you use webhooks:
+
+```typescript
+imessage: {
+  adapter: createiMessageAdapter(),
+  toolDisplay: 'text',
+  gateway: false,
+},
+```
+
+On serverless platforms, prefer webhooks. A gateway listener needs a process that stays alive. See [Serverless deployment](https://mastra.ai/docs/capabilities/channels/overview).

 Visit the [Scorers overview](https://mastra.ai/docs/evals/overview) for details on available and custom scorers.
 
+## Control persistence per run
+
+Use `persistence` to skip storage writes for a specific run. Experiment records and score records can be disabled independently:
+
+```typescript
+const summary = await dataset.startExperiment({
+  targetType: 'agent',
+  targetId: 'translation-agent',
+  scorers: ['accuracy'],
+  persistence: {
+    experiments: 'none',
+    scores: 'none',
+  },
+})
+```
+
+The target and scorers still run, and `startExperiment()` still returns the item results and scores in `summary`. The settings are independent. For example, set only `scores: 'none'` to persist the experiment and its item results without creating score records.
+
+Omitted settings default to `'default'`, which preserves the standard storage behavior. This policy only controls experiment and score records created by the run. It doesn't disable storage used by the target, such as agent memory, vectors, observability, or custom tool storage.
+
+When `startExperimentAsync()` runs with `experiments: 'none'`, it doesn't persist an experiment record, progress updates, or item results. Score persistence remains controlled separately by `persistence.scores`. Without an experiment event observer, the run is fire-and-forget, and the experiment API can't report whether it completed or failed.
+
+Use synchronous `startExperiment()` when the caller needs the returned summary. An experiment event observer can receive lifecycle events and the terminal summary.
+
+## Observe experiment events
+
+Use `onEvent` to receive versioned, JSON-safe lifecycle events while an experiment runs. This works with `startExperiment()`, `startExperimentAsync()`, and `runExperiment()`.
+
+```typescript
+import type { ExperimentEvent } from '@mastra/core/datasets'
+
+const events: ExperimentEvent[] = []
+
+await dataset.startExperimentAsync({
+  task: async ({ input }) => processItem(input),
+  persistence: { experiments: 'none' },
+  onEvent: async event => {
+    events.push(event)
+    await publishEvent(event)
+  },
+})
+```
+
+The observer receives these event types:
+
+- `experiment.run.started`: Identifies the run, target, resolved dataset version, and item count.
+- `experiment.item.completed`: Reports a committed item result after scoring, including scores, errors, retry count, tool mock details, and stable item identity.
+- `experiment.run.finished`: Reports the terminal outcome and summary counters.
+
+Mastra awaits each observer call before delivering the next event. This serialized delivery applies backpressure and ensures event `sequence` values match delivery order, while item execution can remain concurrent.
+
+If the observer throws or rejects, Mastra aborts the remaining run and rejects `runExperiment()` with a `MastraError` whose `id` is `EXPERIMENT_EVENT_OBSERVER_FAILED`. It doesn't send a terminal event through the failed observer. For `startExperimentAsync()`, the method has already returned when a detached observer fails, so handle delivery failures inside the observer when the caller needs direct error reporting.
+
+The `experiment.run.finished` event is awaited before Mastra persists the final experiment status. Treat the event as the authoritative terminal signal when experiment persistence is disabled, but don't use it as a read-after-write signal for storage.
+
+The exported event types are `ExperimentEvent`, `ExperimentRunStartedEvent`, `ExperimentItemCompletedEvent`, and `ExperimentRunFinishedEvent`. Use the discriminated `type` field to narrow an event before reading event-specific properties.
+
 ## Tool mocks
 
-When an experiment runs an agent that calls side-effecting tools, you can make the run deterministic by attaching static tool mocks to individual dataset items. During the experiment, a mocked tool returns its declared output instead of executing. By default, tools that have no mock on the item run live.

+Workers are internal infrastructure. They're not exposed to end users and don't need their own subdomain, public URL, or inbound HTTP route.
 
 In a split deployment:
 
-- **The API server is the only public-facing process.** It serves all client HTTP requests — REST endpoints, agent interactions, workflow triggers, and any custom routes.
-- **Workers connect outbound only.** They pull events from the distributed PubSub backend and read/write to the shared storage database. They do not accept inbound traffic from clients.
-- **The orchestration worker calls the API internally.** It sends step execution requests to the API over the container network using `MASTRA_STEP_EXECUTION_URL`. This is internal service-to-service communication, not a public endpoint.

 All three worker types (orchestration, scheduler, background task) sit behind the API on a private network. They share access to the PubSub backend and storage database but never receive traffic directly from clients. If a worker-related feature needs an HTTP route (for example, token minting for a voice integration), that route runs on the API server, not on the worker process.
 
 ## Known limitations
 
-- **No dead-letter queue**: Failed events are nacked and retried, but there is no DLQ for events that repeatedly fail.
+- **No dead-letter queue**: Failed events are nacked and retried, but there's no DLQ for events that fail after all retries.
 - **No built-in health endpoint**: Workers don't expose an HTTP health check. Use container-level liveness probes or process monitoring.
 - **Scheduler is single-instance**: Running multiple scheduler processes causes duplicate schedule fires.
 - **Runs stuck in "running" after API crash**: If the API process crashes while executing a workflow step, the run remains in `running` status with no automatic retry. For [durable agents](https://mastra.ai/docs/long-running-agents/durable-agents), set `recovery.durableAgents` to `'auto'` in the Mastra config to automatically re-drive orphaned runs on server restart. See [Crash recovery](https://mastra.ai/docs/long-running-agents/durable-agents) for details.
