Open-Source iMessage Agent Template Deploys a Chores-Doing Assistant in One Prompt
jeff_weinstein · x · 2026-10-06
eve.dev released an open-source "iMessage Agent as a Service" template (demo project OpenInstinct) that deploys to your own Vercel account in one prompt and turns iMessage into an agent platform:
- Multi-tenant user accounts with per-user scoped memory
- Stripe Link encrypted wallet integration so the agent can pay directly
- Linq for iMessage messaging and @usekernel for cloud browser control
- The agent can sign in to sites, book movie tickets, and buy groceries while passwords and cards stay with the user
- Open source, self-hostable, model-agnostic; sample defineAgent config shows dynamic model gateway, scheduled-run lease checks, reasoning=low, and compaction at 70% threshold
Jeff Weinstein shared it as a "ready-today stack" for building iMessage agents.
