Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by steipete on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Beeper AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/steipete/agent-scripts.git /tmp/agent-scripts
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/agent-scripts/skills/beeper .claude/skills/beeper

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Beeper in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Beeper on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Beeper is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Beeper

Use this for local Beeper history questions, especially vague contact hints across iMessage/WhatsApp bridges.

Source

DB: ~/Library/Application Support/BeeperTexts/index.db
FTS: mx_room_messages_fts

Start by inspecting accounts/rooms before broad searching.

Workflow

Identify likely account/bridge/room from accounts, participants, and room tables.
Use FTS for text discovery.
Narrow by date, participant, and room.
Report room/account names, date spans, and confidence.

Useful probes:

bash
sqlite3 "$HOME/Library/Application Support/BeeperTexts/index.db" \
  "select * from accounts limit 20;"

bash
sqlite3 "$HOME/Library/Application Support/BeeperTexts/index.db" \
  "select rowid, content from mx_room_messages_fts where mx_room_messages_fts match 'query' limit 20;"

Keep results local; this DB can contain private messages.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Beeper AI skill do?

Beeper cache: contact hints, room lookup, WhatsApp/iMessage traces, FTS.

Why use Beeper on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Beeper is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Beeper in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/steipete/agent-scripts/tree/main/skills/beeper. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Beeper?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Beeper?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Beeper with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Beeper AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by steipete under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
