Indent connects to your Beeper account through Matrix. Each person connects their own Beeper Matrix
ID, then messages @indent:indent.com from Beeper.
Connect Beeper
Find your Beeper Matrix ID
In Beeper, open Settings and select your name. Copy the ID ending in :beeper.com, such as

Connect your Matrix ID to Indent
Open the Matrix personal integration. Enter your Beeper Matrix ID and select Connect.
Start a direct message with Indent
In Beeper Desktop or Beeper for Android, start a new chat and search for @indent:indent.com.
Send your request in the new conversation.

Work with Indent in Beeper
In a direct message, send a request without mentioning Indent. Reply in the same thread to continue the session. A new top-level message starts another session. Direct-message sessions are private and visible only to you.
To work in a shared, invite-only Matrix room, add @indent:indent.com as a participant. Mention
Indent in a new message to start a session. Replies in that thread continue the same session without
another mention. The session is visible to your Indent organization.
Indent adds an 👀 reaction while it works and a ✅ reaction when it finishes. React with 🛑 to the first message in the thread to stop the current run. Replies can include files and images. Each reply links to the same session in the Indent web app.
Continue in the web app
Open the session link in Indent to inspect tool calls, file changes, and other work that Beeper does not render inline. You can continue the same session from Beeper or the web app.
When Indent needs you to answer a question or approve an action, it posts a link in Beeper. Complete the action in the web app.
Limits
Indent reads text messages from Beeper. Files and images that you send in Beeper are not added to the session.
Troubleshooting
If Indent does not reply:
- Confirm that Settings → Personal integrations → Matrix shows the same
@username:beeper.comID as your Beeper account. - Include the leading
@when you search for@indent:indent.com. - Mention Indent in the first message of a shared room thread.
- If Indent asks you to link your Matrix ID, open the link, save the prefilled ID, and send your request again.
