Give your AI coding agent a voice on your team
Connect Claude to Dailybot so your agent reports progress, checks messages, sends emails, and announces its status — automatically, as part of your workflow.
Install
/plugin install dailybot@claude-plugins-officialWorks in Claude Code. No credit card required — you can create a Dailybot account right from the terminal if you don’t have one.
What it does
Progress Reporting — When Claude finishes meaningful work (shipping a feature, fixing a bug, completing a task), it sends a standup-style update to your team via Dailybot. Reports are written in a human-first style — they describe what was accomplished and why it matters, not which files changed.
Team Messages — Claude checks for pending messages and instructions from your team at the start of every session. Messages represent tasks, priorities, context, or feedback that shape the agent’s work.
Email — Send emails to anyone through Dailybot. Useful for notifications, summaries, follow-ups, or weekly reports. Replies are delivered back as messages to the agent inbox.
Health Status — Announce the agent’s status (online, working, offline, degraded) so the team knows what’s happening. Health checks also deliver pending messages.

Automatic behavior
The plugin works in the background without manual commands:
- Auto-reporting — Claude detects when significant work is completed and sends a report automatically. Trivial changes (typo fixes, lockfile updates, formatting) are skipped.
- Stop gate — When Claude finishes a turn with significant unreported work, it’s reminded to offer a Dailybot report before stopping.
- Session messages — At the start of each session, pending messages from your team are fetched automatically.
Setup
Step 1 — Install the Dailybot CLI
pip install dailybot-cliRequires Python 3.9+. Or: curl -sSL https://cli.dailybot.com/install.sh | bash
Step 2 — Log in
dailybot loginA verification code is sent to your email. Any Dailybot team member can log in — you don’t need to be an admin.
No Dailybot account? No problem — Claude can create a new organization for you right from the terminal. You’ll get a link to share with your team so they can connect Dailybot to Slack, Teams, Discord, or Google Chat.
Step 3 — Agent name (optional)
When you enable the plugin, Claude Code asks for an agent name. This is how reports appear in Dailybot. Default is claude-code.
How reports look
Simple bug fix:
“Fixed a bug where users without a timezone set would see errors on their profile page.”
Feature with structured data:
“Built the notification preferences system — users can now configure which alerts they receive and through which channels.”
completed: Preferences model, REST API, Email integration, Test suite (32 cases)
Milestone:
“Shipped the new billing dashboard — managers can now view usage, invoices, and plan details in one place.”
Co-authoring
When you’re logged in via CLI, Dailybot automatically credits you as a co-author on every report. The agent’s work shows up in your daily standup — because you directed it.
