dkdc-io-imessage 0.1.6

iMessage MCP plugin for Codex CLI and Claude Code. Lets an LLM read and send iMessage on macOS.
Documentation
//! Minimal MCP server over stdio (JSON-RPC 2.0, line-delimited).
//!
//! Handles:
//! - `initialize` — returns capabilities + server info.
//! - `tools/list` — returns the three tool definitions from [`crate::tools`].
//! - `tools/call` — dispatches to `reply`, `list_messages`, `read_message`.
//! - `ping` — empty result.
//!
//! Transport is the standard MCP stdio shape used by Codex CLI and Claude Code.
//! No channel-event extensions; a client only gets what it asks for.
