## Overview
- Runs on macOS via the BlueBubbles helper app ([bluebubbles.app](https://bluebubbles.app)).
- Recommended/tested: macOS Sequoia (15). macOS Tahoe (26) works; edit is currently broken on Tahoe, but other actions (reactions, effects, unsend, etc.) still work.
- Clawdbot talks to it through its REST API (`GET /api/v1/ping`, `POST /message/text`, `POST /chat/:id/*`).
- Incoming messages arrive via webhooks; outgoing replies, typing indicators, read receipts, and tapbacks are REST calls.
- Attachments and stickers are ingested as inbound media (and surfaced to the agent when possible).
