A TypeScript implementation of a simple MCP server that exposes datetime information to agentic systems and chat REPLs
Nothing to run from here
Signal Messaging (via signal-cli) is installed from its publisher's own source and answers where it runs, so this marketplace is not in the path of a single call. There is no address here to send one to, and a panel that pretended otherwise would be showing you an answer we made up. Install it and call it from your own client — the Installation tab has the entry for each one.

What it does
Send Signal messages and read replies through your own signal-cli JSON-RPC daemon (unofficial).
Quickstart
# 1 — add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --scope user --env 'SIGNAL_SENDER=${SIGNAL_SENDER}' --env 'SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT=${SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT}' --transport stdio signal-messaging-via-signal-cli-mcp '--' docker run -i --rm -e SIGNAL_SENDER -e SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT ghcr.io/joshuawowk/signal-mcp:1.0.1 python3 /app/server.py
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# signal_send_message, signal_send_question, signal_send_permission_request and 2 more
It needs SIGNAL_SENDER, SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT: this reads them from your environment, so export them first.
Signal Messaging (via signal-cli) costs nothing on mcprush: there is no plan to choose here, no cap to set and nothing mcprush can bill you for.

Installation
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. This one runs on your machine: your client starts Signal Messaging (via signal-cli) as a process under your own user, with your files and your network, so the tool surface below is what it can do to your computer rather than to a server somewhere else. It has not been scanned here, so read the surface, and its source, before you approve it.
Claude Codedeclared by this listing
This is a public server: you run it yourself and this marketplace is not in the path. You need Docker installed and running. Only the required variables are passed into the container. To set an optional one (SIGNAL_RPC_URL, SIGNAL_TCP_HOST, SIGNAL_TCP_PORT, SIGNAL_INBOX_PATH, SIGNAL_POLL_INTERVAL, SIGNAL_INBOX_RETENTION_DAYS), add -e NAME before the image name and give it a value in the entry’s env: an unset -e would clear the default the image sets. Claude Code registers it in one command; --scope user makes it available in every project. Claude Code reads SIGNAL_SENDER (E.164 number of the account registered in signal-cli (e.g. +15555550100)), SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT (E.164 number messaged by default; tools accept a per-call recipient override) from your environment each time it starts the server, so the value stays out of its config: export them in your shell profile (macOS, Linux), or run setx SIGNAL_SENDER …, setx SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT … and open a new terminal (Windows). The '--' is in quotes so that PowerShell passes it on.
claude mcp add --scope user --env 'SIGNAL_SENDER=${SIGNAL_SENDER}' --env 'SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT=${SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT}' --transport stdio signal-messaging-via-signal-cli-mcp '--' docker run -i --rm -e SIGNAL_SENDER -e SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT ghcr.io/joshuawowk/signal-mcp:1.0.1 python3 /app/server.pyReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
Free on mcprush, and it runs from its publisher’s own image: this marketplace is not in the path, so there is no key of ours to hold and no card to add.
What it asks of you
It reaches a system of yours, so it needs settings only you can give it: SIGNAL_SENDER — E.164 number of the account registered in signal-cli (e.g. +15555550100); SIGNAL_DEFAULT_RECIPIENT — E.164 number messaged by default; tools accept a per-call recipient override. You set them in your own client’s config, on your machine — this marketplace never holds it.
What it writes
One config entry your client uses to start the process locally. A local server runs with your file system and your network, which is why it is priced without metering.
What you approve
5 tools, with what each one reads, writes and reaches shown before you agree — the same list on every route above. Read the tool surface.

What the model actually sees. Descriptions are diffed on every release — see version history.
Read from its source code. A server that builds its tool list when it starts can list more tools than this.
Send a plain Signal DM to the user (or recipient if overridden).
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| text | string | yes | The message body. Plain text. |
| recipient | string | no | Optional E.164 number to override the default. |
| session_id | string | no | Optional short tag prefixed to the message. |
Send a blocking question to the user.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| question | string | yes | The question text. Be specific; include enough context that the user doesn't need to open Claude to answer. |
| options | array/string | no | Optional choices, rendered as a numbered list. Accepts a real list (["A", "B"]) OR a string the client may have serialized: a JSON array '["A","B"]', or newline- or comma-separated text ("A\ B" / "A, |
| recipient | string | no | Optional E.164 override. |
| session_id | string | no | Optional short tag for correlating the reply. |
Ask the user to approve an action before the agent proceeds.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| action | string | yes | One-line description of what the agent wants to do. |
| context | string | yes | Why, scope, and blast radius. Include enough detail that the user can decide without asking follow-ups. |
| recipient | string | no | Optional E.164 override. |
| session_id | string | no | Optional short tag for correlating the reply. |
Return recent Signal messages received by the bot account.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| since | string | no | Only return messages received at-or-after this ISO ts. |
| from_recipient | string | no | Only return messages from this E.164 number. |
| session_id | string | no | Only return messages whose body contains [session_id]. |
| limit | integer | no | Max messages to return (default 20). |

No rule-by-rule report on file for this release
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
This listing ships as a container image. The scanner reads packages on npm and PyPI and public source; an image is neither, so there is no grade here — not a withheld one, an unmeasured one.
Release history
It installs from a container image rather than from a versioned package, so the command cannot be pinned to a release. The history below is for reading; the current release on file is 1.0.1.

Who can review
One review per account, from a signed-in account that does not publish this listing. Nothing else is asked — you can say what you think before you install it. Publishers can reply once per review, and a review can be edited or deleted by whoever wrote it.
Sign in to write one
Any signed-in account that does not publish Signal Messaging (via signal-cli) can review it, once — before installing it or after. A review from an account that has installed it is marked as one.
No reviews yet
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes a signed-in account that does not publish it, and nothing else.
