Show HN: Jade – an iMessage blue bubble agent for group chats
itsjade.chatI thought it’d be fun to create an agent that lives in iMessage, and most of all that works in group chats on iMessage. I called her Jade
Multiplayer experiences with agents haven’t been really explored as much, and it was interesting to test the boundaries of LLMs with respect to that.
I used durable objects from Cloudflare for the backend, and a MacMini that’s always online to handle the reading and writing to iMessage.
The nice part is that it decides whether to reply in the group chat, a bit like a human would. It doesn’t always reply like you’d expect in a ChatGPT-like setting. And it can also understand images!
It was a fun project to work on, I may write a detailed technical post about it if there’s interest.

The "AI deciding whether or not to reply" bit seems really interesting to me. Is it just random or do you actually have some algorithm behind it? If so, what all does it take into account? Message content? length? quantity? etc...
