View on GitHub ↗fakechat
Simple UI for testing the channel contract without an external service. Open a browser, type, messages go to your Claude Code session, replies come back.
Setup
These are Claude Code commands — run claude to start a session first.
Install the plugin:
/plugin install fakechat@claude-plugins-official
Relaunch with the channel flag — the server won't connect without this. Exit your session and start a new one:
claude --channels plugin:fakechat@claude-plugins-official
The server prints the URL to stderr on startup:
fakechat: http://localhost:8787
Open it. Type. The assistant replies in-thread.
Set FAKECHAT_PORT to change the port.
Tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
reply |
Send to the UI. Takes text, optionally reply_to (message ID) and files (absolute path, 50MB). Attachment shows as [filename] under the text. |
edit_message |
Edit a previously-sent message in place. |
Inbound images/files save to ~/.claude/channels/fakechat/inbox/ and the path
is included in the notification. Outbound files are copied to outbox/ and
served over HTTP.
Not a real channel
There's no history, no search, no access.json, no skill. Single browser tab, fresh on every reload. This is a dev tool, not a messaging bridge.
Preview from the source repo. Images are removed.
