29
+ Claude Code peer messaging protocol and client library.
30
+
31
+ `claude-chatter` provides a standalone Python implementation of the Claude Code peer-to-peer messaging protocol. It handles peer discovery via local session descriptors (`~/.claude/sessions/*.json`), background jobs inspection (`~/.claude/jobs`), UNIX domain socket IPC, NDJSON message framing, and local SQLite mailbox persistence.
32
+
33
+ This library has no dependencies on FastMCP or Antigravity and can be used directly in any Python application or CLI workflow.
34
+
35
+ ## Installation
36
+
37
+ ```bash
38
+ pip install claude-chatter
39
+ ```
40
+
41
+ ## Messaging tools
42
+
43
+ The library implements the peer messaging tools that Claude Code exposes to its own agents (`SendMessage` and `ListAgents`), so any Python program can act as a peer:
44
+
45
+ - `ClaudeClient.send_message(target_session, message_content, priority="next")` delivers a message to a live session over its UNIX socket. The target is resolved by name, PID, session id or a partial name match.
46
+ - `ClaudeClient.list_sessions()` returns the live sessions found in `~/.claude/sessions`, with peer tokens redacted unless `redact_tokens=False`. `ClaudeWire.scan_sessions()` does the same without a client.
47
+
48
+ Received messages are stored in the local mailbox and read with `get_unread_messages()` and `get_history()`. The CLI equivalents are `--send`, `--list`, `--inbox` and `--history`.
49
+
50
+ ## Quick Start
51
+
52
+ ### As a Library
53
+
54
+ ```python
55
+ import asyncio
56
+ from claude_chatter import ClaudeClient, ClaudeWire
57
+
58
+ async def main():
59
+ # Stateless discovery
60
+ sessions = ClaudeWire.scan_sessions()
61
+ print("Discovered sessions:", sessions)
62
+
63
+ # Initialize client node
64
+ client = ClaudeClient(session_name="my-worker")
65
+
66
+ # Send message to an active session
67
+ res = await client.send_message(
68
+ target_session="other-session",
69
+ message_content="Hello from claude-chatter"
70
+ )
71
+ print("Send status:", res)
72
+
73
+ if __name__ == "__main__":
74
+ asyncio.run(main())
75
+ ```
76
+
77
+ ### Inbound Message Callback
78
+
79
+ ```python
80
+ async def on_message(event):
81
+ print(f"Received frame {event['msg_id']} from {event['sender']}: {event['content']}")
82
+
83
+ client = ClaudeClient(session_name="listener", on_inbound_message=on_message)
84
+ ```
85
+
86
+ ### CLI Tool
87
+
88
+ The package installs both `claude-chatter` and `chatter` CLI entry points:
89
+
90
+ ```bash
91
+ # List all active Claude Code sessions
92
+ claude-chatter --list
93
+
94
+ # List Claude Code background jobs
95
+ claude-chatter --jobs
96
+
97
+ # Inspect unread messages from local mailbox
98
+ claude-chatter --inbox
99
+
100
+ # View full persisted message history
101
+ claude-chatter --history
102
+
103
+ # Send message to a target session
104
+ claude-chatter --send target-session "Hello peer"
105
+
106
+ # Run standalone daemon socket listener
107
+ claude-chatter --standalone --name my-daemon
108
+
109
+ # Proactively scan and purge dead session files
110
+ claude-chatter --purge
111
+ ```
112
+
113
+ ## Provenance
114
+
115
+ `claude-chatter` was extracted from [non7top/claude-chatter-mcp](https://github.com/non7top/claude-chatter-mcp) to provide a reusable, host-independent library for the Claude Code peer messaging protocol with zero MCP dependencies. Full commit history of the protocol core was preserved during the separation.
