Messaging channels
Text your agents from anywhere. They do the work at home.
01It’s just a chat
Your agents live in your chat app, like any other contact.
Message them the way you’d message a person: give an order, ask what’s going on, change your mind halfway. They answer in the same chat, and the finished work lands there too. Meanwhile the actual work happens on your computer at home — the phone is just how you talk to them.
Works from Telegram, Discord, Slack, Matrix or Signal — whichever you already use.
02Hook one up
- Open CHANNELS
Find the channel you want and connect it. Each one walks you through its own short setup.
each channel has its own card - Prove it’s you
The app shows you a short pairing message. Send it to your bot and your account becomes the owner. Until then the bot answers nobody, and afterwards only the owner can give the station work — strangers who find the bot get nothing. Pairing is also what grants your account full control (see below).
one-time pairing - Say something
Ask “what are you working on?” or hand over a task. The reply comes back in the chat, from the agent, like a coworker texting you back.
that’s the whole trick
03Staying in control
Your account is paired as the owner. Nobody else can command your station through the channel. That account has full control: by default its direct messages run shell commands, your connected services and desktop control without asking, even where the station window would ask first (send /approvals on in that chat to approve each step there). Change that in SETTINGS › PERMISSIONS (PAIRED OWNER CHATS), and remove the account any time in CHANNELS.
Send the stop command from your phone to interrupt the current task in that chat. As the paired owner, send /halt and then /halt confirm within 60 seconds to stop all station work; RESUME AUTOMATION is only in the station window.
A job from your phone obeys the same spending caps as one started at the keyboard.
