amq-remote

# AMQ Remote `/amq-remote` gives this session its own Buzz agent, "AMQ: <name>", with its own DM. The owner DMs that agent from the Buzz phone app or Buzz Desktop. Several sessions can be connected at once; each has its own agent. - **Default (AMQ mailbox).** Each DM arrives as an AMQ message from `buzz` in this agent's inbox. This agent answers with `amq reply --id <id>`, and that reply is shown in the DM. A reply with `--kind status` shows as progress; any other reply is the final answer. No Stop hook and no wake are needed. Noticing the message is this agent's own business (a wake, a built-in consumer, monitor, or the next drain). - **`--native`.** For a session that is not on AMQ: each DM is typed into this exact conversation, and the harness's own final answer goes back. On Claude Code it needs the AMQ Stop hook. Run the steps in order. When a step says to stop, show the user the command's own message. Do not work around a refusal. ## `/amq-remote` (connect) 1. **Tools.** Run `command -v amq-remote amq-acp`. If either is missing, tell the user to run `brew install avivsinai/tap/amq`, then stop. 2. **Bind.** - Default: run `amq-remote attach --self`. It uses `AM_ROOT` and `AM_ME`. If it says this session is not an AMQ participant, offer `--native`. - `--native`: use `$AM_ROOT` when set, else `$HOME/.amq/remote/root` (create it with `mkdir -p`). Run `amq-remote attach --self --native --root "$ROOT"`. If it fails, show its message and stop. 3. **`--native` on Claude Code only: the Stop hook.** Run `amq-remote doctor --root "$ROOT" --json` and read its `failing` list; the exit code is not the signal. If an entry has `boundary` `native_capability`, tell the user this step adds one Stop hook to `~/.claude/settings.json` (it always exits 0, and `amq-remote claude uninstall-stop-hook` removes it). Ask once, then run `amq-remote claude install-stop-hook`. The default mailbox path never needs this. If a `native_capability` entry says the PermissionRequest hook is not installed (a Claude target with `approve`, shared through a relay share), tell the user: "This adds one PermissionRequest hook. It exits at once in sessions that are not shared. It pins your Buzz public key and this share's relay, body, DM channel and target, so only your signed ✅ in this DM can allow a tool call. Do not allow Claude to edit .claude for a session, use bypassPermissions mode, or allow every Bash command: each lets the pin be changed. The relay is trusted to return the message's full edit and deletion history; replacing the amq-remote binary, or a settings edit you approve, defeats the pin. Run the install again if the share's relay or channel changes. Another decision hook you have can answer first. `amq-remote claude uninstall-approval-hook` removes it." Ask once, then run `amq-remote claude install-approval-hook --root "$ROOT"`. If doctor reports `claude_approval_pin_warnings`, show them to the user. 4. **This session's Buzz agent.** Attach printed the session name `<name>`. Run `amq-acp setup --session <name> --out "$HOME/Downloads/AMQ <name>.agent.json"` and show its printed steps as they are: in Buzz Desktop, Agents, then + then Import, pick that file, then Start, and turn on Auto-start. If AMQ Remote is new and Desktop was open, the owner first clicks Settings, then Agents, then Check again; Desktop needs no restart. Skip this step when the agent "AMQ: <name>" already exists in Desktop. 5. Tell the user: "Connected. DM **AMQ: <name>** from the Buzz app or Desktop." - Default: "DMs arrive in this agent's AMQ inbox. Stop in Buzz stops waiting; a delivered message may still be acted on." - `--native`: "A DM sent while this session is busy waits. Buzz Stop cannot interrupt a Claude turn." - When the approval hook was installed in step 3: "When a Buzz request needs a tool approval, the DM shows it. ❌ blocks that call. ✅ allows it when the DM offers ✅: a Bash command shown whole. Otherwise allow it in the terminal. The first answer wins." Codex with `--native`: attach needs `CODEX_THREAD_ID` and a thread loaded in the Codex app-server daemon. A session started with plain `codex` is not in the daemon; start it with `codex app-server daemon start`, then `codex --remote unix://`. ## Answering a Buzz DM (default mailbox) A message from `buzz` with subject "Buzz DM" is the owner writing from Buzz. Do the work, then answer with `amq reply --id <that message id>`. Use `--kind status` for an interim update. Keep the final answer short; it is read in a chat. ## `/amq-remote off` Run `amq-remote detach --self`. The session keeps running; the Buzz agent then answers "Not connected". ## `/amq-remote status` List `~/.amq/remote/bindings/` (one file per connected session: carrier, root, and handle or target). ## Trust limits The Buzz agent's identity belongs to Buzz Desktop. Its grant has no kind limit and no expiry. Archiving the agent does not invalidate a copied key and grant; only removing the agent's relay access does that. Buzz "owner only" also admits the owner's other agents. See the `amq-acp` README.
