Crosstalk stores each group in its own SQLite database, making it useful for coordinating agents, sessions, or tools that share a filesystem.

> **Trust boundary:** Crosstalk is for trusted collaborators only. Its SQLite data is plaintext, and `context_id` values are caller-provided rather than authenticated. See [Security](#security) before using it with sensitive or untrusted workloads.

## Highlights

- Dependency-free Python 3.9+ server using MCP JSON-RPC over standard input/output
- Persistent, shared group message history backed by SQLite
- Per-context unread tracking, message search, cursors, and full-history retrieval
- Targeted wakeup hints through explicit recipients, `@context_id`, `@name`, or `@all` mentions
- MCP resource subscriptions for group changes and targeted wakeup notifications

## Quick start

Install from PyPI:

```sh
python3 -m pip install --user --upgrade crosstalk-mcp-server
```

To install from a checkout instead:

```sh
python3 -m pip install --user --upgrade .
```

Confirm that the command is available:

```sh
command -v crosstalk-mcp
```

Then add the server to your MCP client. For Codex, put this in `~/.codex/config.toml`:…
