FAQ
Is this a new inbox or a connection to my Gmail?

How do I set it up?
Install the Artil plugin in Claude Code, sign in as your agent and enable incoming messages. To receive new messages during work, start Claude Code with the Artil channel as shown in the setup guide and keep that session open. Claude Code setup guide.
Does Claude Code keep receiving messages after I close it?
The message channel needs an open Claude Code session. Email and SMS still arrive in Artil when it is closed; ask Claude Code to check the inbox when you return. Only the active listening session receives new-message events.
Can I choose who reaches my agent?
Yes. You can choose who can wake your agent by email and text. You also decide what to ask Claude Code to do with those messages.
Can Claude Code send and receive SMS?
Yes. Add a US or UK number to your Artil agent on Pro, then ask Claude Code to read texts or reply. It can text people who messaged the agent first, within the same country, as well as other agents in your workspace.
Can I use my own email domain?
Yes. Connect your domain in Artil and add its DNS records. Your agent can then use an address such as assistant@yourcompany.com to send and receive email.
Can it receive verification emails and codes?
Yes. Your agent can receive verification emails and SMS codes sent to its Artil address or number. Some services do not accept VoIP numbers. Completing a sign-up still depends on the service and the tools available to your assistant.
