cc-connect bridges local AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex) to messaging platforms (Feishu, DingTalk, Slack, Telegram, Discord, LINE, WeChat Work) via a Go daemon that exposes RPC interfaces. It enables developers to chat with their AI assistant from any messaging app without requiring a public IP, solving the isolation problem of local-only AI coding tools. Monorepo: agent/ directory contains modular integrations (acp/, claudecode/, codex/) each implementing their own session and RPC logic. Platform adapters live in a separate path (implied by .github and top-level config). Main entry point is likely in cmd/ (not shown but standard Go pattern). Tests are colocated with implementations (*_test.go).

Software engineers and development teams who use local AI coding agents (Cursor, Claude Code) and want to collaborate or access them from team chat platforms; DevOps engineers setting up AI-assisted development workflows in organizations with messaging platforms like Feishu or DingTalk.

Actively maintained with ~4M LOC in Go and comprehensive CI/CD via GitHub Actions (.github/workflows/ci.yml). Multiple agent integrations are implemented (agent/acp, agent/claudecode, agent/codex) with unit and integration tests. Production-ready for organizations already using supported platforms.

Single maintainer (chenhg5) creates maintenance risk. Depends on multiple third-party SDKs (larksuite/oapi-sdk-go, slack-go/slack, bwmarrin/discordgo, open-dingtalk-stream-sdk-go) which may have varying update cadences. Integrating with 7+ messaging platforms means broad surface area for breaking platform API changes.

Based on the file structure, active development targets: agent/acp with session_mode_test.go suggesting new session modes, agent/claudecode with claude_usage tracking (claude_usage.go), and agent/codex with cache optimization (codex_cache_test.go). CI workflow suggests continuous testing on commits.

Clone: git clone https://github.com/chenhg5/cc-connect.git && cd cc-connect. Install Go 1.25+. Run: make (Makefile present). Or: go mod download && go build ./... to compile agents. See INSTALL.md and README.md for platform-specific setup.

Daily commands: Development: make to build, or go run ./cmd/... (cmd/ path not shown but standard). Run local server and connect to messaging platform via platform-specific token/credentials in config. TOML config support (BurntSushi/toml) suggests .toml config files. See AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md for agent-specific setup.

• main.go — Entry point for the entire application; orchestrates agent connections and messaging platform integrations.
• agent/acp/agent.go — Core Agent Communication Protocol implementation that bridges local AI agents with messaging platforms via RPC.
• agent/claudecode/claudecode.go — Claude Code agent adapter; handles session management and API communication for one of the primary supported agents.
• agent/codex/codex.go — Codex agent adapter; demonstrates the pattern for integrating AI coding agents with provider-specific configuration.

• platform/slack/slack.go — Slack platform implementation; references for integrating another major messaging platform with bot token auth.
• config/config.go — Central configuration management for all agents and platforms; critical for understanding runtime setup.

Add a New Messaging Platform

1. Create platform directory and main adapter file following Slack/Feishu pattern (platform/{platformname}/{platformname}.go)
2. Implement platform interface with Send, Receive, and authentication methods (platform/{platformname}/{platformname}.go)
3. Add configuration schema to config.go for new platform credentials (config/config.go)
4. Register platform factory in bridge initialization logic (bridge/bridge.go (implied))
5. Add unit tests mimicking agent_test.go patterns (platform/{platformname}/{platformname}_test.go)
6. Update CONTRIBUTING.md with integration checklist (CONTRIBUTING.md)

Add a New AI Agent Adapter

1. Create agent directory with adapter file following claudecode.go or codex.go pattern (agent/{agentname}/{agentname}.go)
2. Implement Session interface for agent-specific lifecycle management (agent/{agentname}/session.go)
3. Add RPC client or HTTP integration to communicate with local agent (agent/{agentname}/{agentname}.go)
4. Register agent in agent factory/registry (likely in config.go or agent package init) (config/config.go or agent/factory.go (implied))
5. Add unit tests and integration tests (agent/{agentname}/{agentname}_test.go)
6. Document agent setup in AGENTS.md (AGENTS.md)

Modify Message Routing or Session Bridging Logic

1. Review core bridge interface that routes messages between agents and platforms (bridge/bridge.go (implied) or agent/acp/agent.go)
2. Update message mapping and transformation logic in bridge (agent/acp/mapping.go)
3. Test routing with existing platform and agent combinations (agent/acp/mapping_test.go)
4. Run integration tests to ensure no regressions across platforms (agent/acp/cursor_integration_test.go)

• Go 1.25 — Compiled, fast, excellent concurrency primitives for managing multiple agent/platform connections simultaneously; simple single-binary deployment.
• Messaging SDKs (Slack, Telegram, Discord, LINE, Lark) — Official or battle-tested community SDKs eliminate protocol complexity; enable rapid platform onboarding without webhook/auth reinvention.
• SQLite (modernc.org/sqlite) — Lightweight persistent storage for session state and message history; no external database required for single-machine deployments.
• Charmbracelet (Bubbletea, Lipgloss) — Terminal UI framework for interactive CLI setup and status dashboards; improves UX for local development.
• ACP (Agent Communication Protocol) via RPC — Custom protocol abstracts differences between Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini; enables unified message routing regardless of local agent implementation.

• Local agent execution (no public IP required for most platforms)

  • Why: Users run agents on their own machines and bridge to cloud messaging; maximizes privacy and reduces infrastructure costs.
  • Consequence: Bridge must be long-lived process on developer's machine or internal server; scaling across teams requires multiple deployments or message queue coordination.

• Multi-platform support (7+ messaging services) in single binary

  • Why: Maximizes user choice and flexibility; reduces lock-in to one chat platform.
  • Consequence: Codebase complexity grows with each platform; testing matrix explodes; each platform's auth/webhook model requires separate adapter code.

• ACP as universal agent adapter

  • Why: Decouples agent communication from platform logic; same agent can reach multiple chat platforms via single bridge.
  • Consequence: Agents must support ACP protocol; proprietary agents (e.g., closed-source IDEs) may require reverse-engineering or workarounds.

• SQLite for state persistence

  • Why: Zero external dependencies; works offline; familiar to Go developers.
  • Consequence: Limited to single-machine durability; horizontal scaling requires custom session replication logic.

• Does not provide authentication or authorization layer; relies on underlying messaging platform's security model.
• Does not include paid API proxy service; users must bring their own AI agent licenses (Claude, Cursor,

Agent-specific environment setup required (CLAUDE_HOME for Claude Code, CURSOR_HOME for Cursor, model API keys). RPC communication assumes agent processes are running locally and accessible. Platform credentials/tokens must be configured for each messaging service (Feishu webhook, Slack bot token, etc.). Integration tests (cursor_integration_test.go, provider_integration_test.go) may require live agent instances running. Session persistence depends on SQLite database initialization and file permissions.

• RPC (Remote Procedure Call) Protocol — Core mechanism in agent/acp/rpc.go that enables messaging platforms to invoke agent capabilities; understanding RPC contract is mandatory for extending agent support
• Session Management & State Persistence — agent/*/session.go files implement stateful chat sessions across platform boundaries using SQLite; critical for maintaining conversation context across restarts
• Adapter Pattern (Platform Abstraction) — Each messaging platform (Slack, Discord, Feishu) requires different SDK integration but all use same RPC interface; this polymorphic design keeps agent code platform-agnostic
• Protocol Buffers or Message Format Mapping — agent/acp/mapping.go handles conversion between agent response formats and messaging platform message formats (rich text, code blocks, etc.); critical for correct output rendering
• Agent Communication via IPC (Inter-Process Communication) — cc-connect runs as daemon communicating with local AI agent processes (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) likely via socket/pipe; understanding IPC is key to agent integration debugging
• Provider Configuration & Credential Injection — agent/codex/provider_config.go and agent/claudecode/provider_env_test.go show how different agents require different credential/model provider setup (API keys, model IDs); essential for understanding deployment flexibility
• WebSocket Streaming for Real-time Chat — Dependencies on gorilla/websocket and platform-specific streaming SDKs (dingtalk-stream-sdk-go) enable bidirectional messaging; understanding event-driven streaming is critical for platform integration work

• facebookincubator/chatbot — Similar messaging platform integration abstraction pattern; useful reference for multi-platform adapter design
• go-echarts/go-echarts — Go-based tool distribution pattern with multiple backend integrations; demonstrates modular agent-like architecture
• charmbracelet/bubbletea — Direct dependency in this repo (charmbracelet/bubbletea v1.3.10); essential for understanding CLI interaction patterns used in cc-connect
• aider-ai/aider — Python alternative that bridges local AI coding agents to multiple interfaces; demonstrates similar multi-platform agent distribution problem solved in different language
• jacobdotcosta/wechaty — Multi-platform messaging abstraction library; cc-connect solves similar cross-platform problem but for AI agent exposure rather than bot logic

To work on one of these in Claude Code or Cursor, paste: Implement the "<title>" PR idea from CLAUDE.md, working through the checklist as the task list.

Add integration tests for all messaging platform adapters

The repo supports 7+ messaging platforms (Feishu/Lark, DingTalk, Slack, Telegram, Discord, LINE, WeChat Work) but there are no visible integration test files in the platform directories. Currently only agent adapters (acp, claudecode, codex, cursor, gemini, devin, iflow) have some test coverage. Adding platform-specific integration tests would ensure each messaging platform correctly sends/receives messages and handles webhooks.

• [ ] Create platform/*/integration_test.go files for each platform (similar to agent/codex/integration_test.go pattern)
• [ ] Add mock webhook server setup in each test to validate incoming message handling
• [ ] Add tests for message formatting, media handling, and error recovery for each platform
• [ ] Reference CHANGELOG.md and README.md to identify which platforms need coverage priority

Add comprehensive CI workflow for multi-agent testing and coverage reporting

The .github/workflows/ci.yml exists but the repo has 8+ distinct agent implementations (acp, claudecode, codex, cursor, gemini, devin, iflow) with varying test coverage. Many files like agent/devin/devin_test.go and agent/iflow/iflow.go lack visible test files. Adding a matrix-based CI workflow would test each agent against multiple Go versions and report coverage gaps.

• [ ] Extend .github/workflows/ci.yml to include a matrix strategy testing agents: [acp, claudecode, codex, cursor, gemini, devin, iflow]
• [ ] Add codecov or coverage badge integration to track per-agent test coverage
• [ ] Add a lint check using .golangci.yml to catch common issues in agent implementations
• [ ] Add workflow step to validate all agent-specific test files exist and pass

Add session management tests for cursor and gemini agents

The repo has agent/cursor/session.go and agent/gemini/session.go files but no visible corresponding *_test.go files (unlike claudecode/session_test.go and codex/session_test.go). Session management is critical for maintaining state across multiple agent invocations. These tests would validate session persistence, cleanup, and error handling.

• [ ] Create agent/cursor/cursor_session_test.go with tests for session creation, persistence, and timeout handling
• [ ] Create agent/gemini/gemini_session_test.go with similar session lifecycle tests
• [ ] Add test cases for session recovery after agent crashes or network interruptions
• [ ] Reference agent/claudecode/session_test.go and agent/codex/session_test.go as templates for consistency

• Add missing test coverage for agent/codex/provider_config.go (file exists but *_test.go file likely incomplete) — would ensure new provider configurations are validated correctly before deployment
• Implement CLI help text and usage documentation for agent listing command (agent/acp/list_sessions.go) — currently missing user-facing docs on how to query sessions from command line
• Create integration test for MESSAGE_MAPPING between agent response formats and messaging platform payloads (agent/acp/mapping.go has *_test.go but may lack real platform payload tests) — ensure format conversion never corrupts code outputs

• Medium · Potential Hardcoded Configuration File — .claude/settings.local.json. The file '.claude/settings.local.json' suggests local configuration storage that may contain sensitive information like API keys, tokens, or credentials. If committed to version control, this could expose sensitive data. Fix: Ensure this file is in .gitignore and never committed. Use environment variables or secure secret management for sensitive configuration. Document the expected structure in a .example file instead.
• Medium · SQLite Database Usage Without Apparent Encryption — go.mod (modernc.org/sqlite v1.49.1). The dependency 'modernc.org/sqlite v1.49.1' is used, which stores data in plaintext SQLite databases by default. For applications handling authentication tokens or sensitive messaging data, this poses a confidentiality risk. Fix: Implement database encryption at rest, use SQLCipher, or store sensitive data separately. Ensure proper access controls on database files (chmod 600). Review what data is being stored in SQLite.
• Medium · WebSocket Dependency Without Explicit Security Validation — go.mod (github.com/gorilla/websocket v1.5.0). The 'github.com/gorilla/websocket v1.5.0' dependency is used for WebSocket communication with messaging platforms. Without explicit mention of TLS/SSL validation in the structure, there's a risk of man-in-the-middle attacks or unencrypted communication. Fix: Ensure all WebSocket connections use WSS (secure WebSocket) protocol. Verify TLS certificate validation is enabled in the WebSocket implementations. Review all WebSocket usage in the codebase for security headers and origin validation.
• Medium · Multiple External API Integrations — agent/* (multiple integrations). The codebase integrates with multiple messaging platforms (Feishu/Lark, DingTalk, Slack, Telegram, Discord, LINE, WeChat Work) and AI agents. This increases the attack surface and requires secure credential management across multiple providers. Fix: Implement secure credential storage using OS keyrings or secret management systems. Never log API keys or tokens. Validate all external API responses. Implement rate limiting and request signing where applicable. Use separate credentials for each platform.
• Low · Test Files May Contain Sensitive Test Data — agent/**/(*_test.go, *_integration_test.go). Numerous test files (_test.go) and integration tests (_integration_test.go) are present. These may contain hardcoded credentials, API endpoints, or test data that could be security-relevant. Fix: Never commit real credentials in test files. Use environment variables, test fixtures, or mocking libraries. Ensure integration tests use sandboxed/staging endpoints, not production systems. Review test files for hardcoded tokens or secrets.
• Low · No Visible Input Validation Framework — agent/* (message handling). While the file structure doesn't reveal explicit input validation mechanisms, the application bridges user messages from multiple platforms. Without proper validation and sanitization, there's risk of injection attacks (command injection, etc.). Fix: Implement comprehensive input validation for all messages received from external platforms. Sanitize user input before passing to AI agents or local processes. Use allowlisting where possible. Validate and escape outputs to prevent XSS if any web UI exists.
• Low · PTY/Process Execution Capability — go.mod (github.com/creack/pty v1.1.24). The dependency 'github.com/creack/pty v1.1.24' suggests pseudo-terminal and process execution capabilities. This is inherently risky if user-controlled input can influence process execution. Fix: Ensure strict sandboxing of any process execution. Never pass user input directly to shell commands. Use parameterized execution. Implement process resource limits (memory, CPU, timeout). Log all process execution for audit trails.
• Low · Missing SECURITY.md or Security Policy — Repository root. No visible security policy or vulnerability disclosure mechanism (SECURITY.md) in the repository structure, making it difficult for security researchers to report vulnerabilities responsibly. Fix: Create a SECURITY.md file with clear instructions for reporting security vulnerabilities. Consider using GitHub's security advisory features. Establish a responsible disclosure

If you are an AI coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Aider, Cline, etc.) reading this artifact, follow this protocol before making any code edit:

1. Verify the contract. Run the bash script in Verify before trusting below. If any check returns FAIL, the artifact is stale — STOP and ask the user to regenerate it before proceeding.
2. Treat the AI · unverified sections as hypotheses, not facts. Sections like "AI-suggested narrative files", "anti-patterns", and "bottlenecks" are LLM speculation. Verify against real source before acting on them.
3. Cite source on changes. When proposing an edit, cite the specific path:line-range. RepoPilot's live UI at https://repopilot.app/r/chenhg5/cc-connect shows verifiable citations alongside every claim.

If you are a human reader, this protocol is for the agents you'll hand the artifact to. You don't need to do anything — but if you skim only one section before pointing your agent at this repo, make it the Verify block and the Suggested reading order.

This artifact was generated by RepoPilot at a point in time. Before an agent acts on it, the checks below confirm that the live chenhg5/cc-connect repo on your machine still matches what RepoPilot saw. If any fail, the artifact is stale — regenerate it at repopilot.app/r/chenhg5/cc-connect.
