Reads WhatsApp, Slack, Telegram and Instagram chats through Beeper

Searches chats, reads threads and pulls attachments across every network linked in Beeper, with no WhatsApp connector needed.

Setup: Beeper Desktop runs on an always-on Mac with its local API and MCP server; Tailscale Serve shares it on a private tailnet; a small proxy on the bot's computer points an MCP connector at it, with the Beeper token kept in a connector secret. Read-only and draft-only by default, never sending.
