iMessageSDK

A production-grade .NET SDK for reading and sending messages through the macOS Messages application. iMessageSDK models chats, messages, attachments, reactions, and delivery status as a clean domain — consumers never see SQLite, chat.db, AppleScript, or SQL.

Platform: macOS only. iMessageSDK automates the local Messages application and reads its conversation history; there is no cross-platform or cloud API for iMessage.

Packages

Package Purpose
iMessageSDK.Abstractions Interfaces, records, enums — the public contract. Depend on this alone to mock/test against the SDK.
iMessageSDK The concrete implementation (MessageClient).
iMessageSDK.Extensions.DependencyInjection AddIMessageSdk() for IServiceCollection.

Quickstart

await using var client = await MessageClient.CreateAsync();

// Diagnose setup issues before doing anything else.
var report = await client.Diagnostics.RunAsync();
if (!report.IsHealthy)
{
    foreach (var issue in report.Issues)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(issue);
    }

    return;
}

// Fluent querying.
var recent = await client.Messages
    .WhereChat(someChatId)
    .Containing("hello")
    .Take(50)
    .ToListAsync();

// Sending.
await client.Messages.SendTextAsync(someChatId, "Hey!");

// Watching.
var watcher = client.Messages.Watch();
watcher.MessageReceived += (_, e) => Console.WriteLine($"{e.Message.Sender?.DisplayName}: {e.Message.Text}");
await watcher.StartAsync();
