Platforms count differently and update at different times.
The primary says Beeper CLI can list threads, inspect messages, run full-text searches, and extract conversation data; it does not send messages. It requires access to the local Beeper Desktop database, so it exposes sensitive local chat history. Use narrow searches within the user-authorized scope, limit result counts, avoid unnecessary full-conversation extraction, and protect the database path and any exported results.

# Beeper CLI
[Beeper](https://www.beeper.com/) is a universal chat app that unifies messages from WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, iMessage, Discord, and more in a single inbox.
This skill provides **read-only access** to your local Beeper chat history. Browse threads, search messages, and extract conversation data.
## Requirements
- Beeper Desktop app installed (provides the SQLite database)
- `beeper-cli` binary on PATH
## Database Path
The CLI auto-detects:
- `~/Library/Application Support/BeeperTexts/index.db` (macOS)
- `~/Library/Application Support/Beeper/index.db` (macOS)
Override with:
- `--db /path/to/index.db`
- `BEEPER_DB=/path/to/index.db`
## Commands
### List Threads
```bash
beeper-cli threads list --days 7 --limit 50 --json
```
### Show Thread Details
```bash
beeper-cli threads show --id "!abc123:beeper.local" --json
```
### List Messages in Thread
```bash
beeper-cli messages list --thread "!abc123:beeper.local" --limit 50 --json
```
### Search Messages (Full-Text)
```bash
# Simple search
beeper-cli search 'invoice' --limit 20 --json
# Phrase search
beeper-cli search '"christmas party"' --limit 20 --json
# Proximity search
beeper-cli search 'party NEAR/5 christmas' --limit 20 --json
# With context window (messages before/after match)
beeper-cli search 'meeting' --context 6 --window 60m --json
```
### Database Info
```bash
beeper-cli db info --json
```
## Notes
- **Read-only**: This tool never sends messages
- **JSON output**: Always use `--json` for structured output agents can parse
- **FTS5 search**: Uses Beeper's built-in full-text index (FTS5) for fast search
- **DM name resolution**: Optionally resolves DM names via bridge databases (disable with `--no-bridge`)
