Seamkeeper is a field-tested continuity protocol and reference implementation for a personal technical agent. It keeps the agent reachable from Telegram, carries the thread of work across restarts, and recovers after failures. It is not a bot and not a new agent: Claude Code remains the agent. Seamkeeper is a survival layer built around it.

🪡 The fastest way in

**Hand this repo to your Claude Code on the server and say:** **"Build me an eternal session following BOOTSTRAP.md"** — it takes it from there: asks what it's missing, adapts to your server, verifies it survives, and reports back.

[→ BOOTSTRAP.md](BOOTSTRAP.md) — the build protocol (for the agent) · [→ docs/SETUP.en.md](docs/SETUP.en.md) — the manual path (for a human)

Three values

  • Reachable — the agent is a Telegram message away, from any device, at any time.
  • Continuous — the thread of work and memory survive restarts, subscription limits, and server reboots.
  • Self-healing — the watchdog tells failure classes apart and heals them, instead of restarting forever.

What it is and what it does not do

**It is:** a survival protocol wrapped around your interactive Claude Code session — a Telegram channel, a watchdog, memory, and recovery scaffolding, grown out of real production use.

**It is not:** a standalone bot or a new agent; not a general-purpose framework for any LLM; not ready-made support for Codex or other engines — that's a possible future direction, not a current fact. The working implementation today is built around Claude Code, tmux, Telegram, and a VPS.
