v1.0.0 — Initial release
First public release of Claude Intercom — a Windows desktop app that bridges two Claude conversations via MCP.
What it does
Lets a Claude Desktop instance talk to a real claude.ai conversation as a peer. The Desktop Claude gets three tools:
talk_to_remote_claude(message)— types into the locked claude.ai conversation, waits for the full streamed response, returns itread_recent_messages(count)— pulls the last N turns from the locked conversation with role infoget_relay_status()— checks what's currently locked
Every relayed message is automatically tagged [Message from another Claude instance]: so the receiving Claude knows it's not regular user input.
Install
- Download
claude-intercom-1.0.0-win-x64.zipbelow and extract it anywhere. - Open
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.jsonand add undermcpServers:"claude-intercom": { "command": "<extracted path>\resources\claude-intercom-bridge.exe" }
- Fully quit and restart Claude Desktop (tray → Quit, not just close).
- Run
Claude Intercom.exe. Log into claude.ai in the right pane, navigate to your target conversation, click Lock. - In Claude Desktop, the three tools are now available.
See README.md for the full architecture and TROUBLESHOOTING.md if something breaks.
Platform
Windows x64. macOS and Linux builds aren't yet packaged — the JS will run on those platforms but you'd need to build from source.
Notes
- The MCP bridge
.exeis a self-contained Node binary (~56 MB) so end users don't need Node.js installed. - Driving claude.ai through a browser session is fine for personal use; doing it at scale or commercially is a different conversation with Anthropic's ToS.
