What intercom does

The plugin reaches your Intercom workspace through an MCP server. An auto-triggered skill wakes up whenever you ask about your Intercom data — common topics in open conversations, one customer's issue history, account context. Separate slash commands handle the Messenger install and the CLI setup.

Everything is read-only. The plugin searches and retrieves, but it cannot create, update or delete conversations, contacts or any other Intercom object, so your workspace stays as it is. Search calls run into Intercom API rate limits; the MCP server absorbs the throttling.

One thing to check first: only US-hosted workspaces work today. EU and Australia are planned. Signing in happens through OAuth against your own Intercom workspace. The Messenger skill covers React, Next.js, Vue.js and plain JavaScript, and it sets up identity verification with JWT.

What it helps with

  • spot the most common topics in this week's open conversations
  • trace every conversation from one customer's email
  • assemble a customer profile with account context and timeline
  • drop the Intercom Messenger into a React app with JWT identity verification
  • install and authenticate @intercom/cli for shell work

Example prompts for the agent

  • Show me the most common topics in open conversations this week
  • Look up all conversations from [email protected] and summarize her issues
  • /intercom:customer-360 [email protected]

# Intercom Plugin for Claude Code and Google Antigravity

Connect your Intercom workspace to Claude Code or Google Antigravity. Search conversations, analyze customer support patterns, look up contacts and companies, and install the Intercom Messenger.

## Prerequisites

- An [Intercom](https://www.intercom.com) workspace
- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) or [Google Antigravity](https://antigravity.google) installed
- Your Intercom workspace must be US-hosted (EU and AU support coming soon)

## Installation

### Claude Code

```
/plugin install intercom
```

### Google Antigravity

Open **Customizations → Plugins** and install Intercom from **Discover**, or choose **+ Install from URL** and enter `https://github.com/intercom/claude-plugin-external`.

Connecting to the Intercom MCP server requires signing in to your Intercom workspace through OAuth. In Antigravity, explicit skills are invoked without the `intercom:` prefix, for example `/customer-360 [email protected]`.

## Available Skills

| Skill | Invocation | Description |
|-------|-----------|-------------|
| **Intercom Analysis** | Auto-triggered | Analyze conversations, find support patterns, investigate customer issues, and look up contacts. Triggers automatically when you ask about your Intercom data. |
| **Install Messenger** | `/intercom:install-messenger [framework]` | Install the Intercom Messenger with secure JWT-based identity verification. Supports React, Next.js, Vue.js, and plain JavaScript. |
| **Install CLI** | `/intercom:install-cli` | Install and authenticate the [`@intercom/cli`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@intercom/cli) command-line tool for shell access, scripting, and workspace provisioning. |
| **Customer 360** | `/intercom:customer-360 [email or company]` | Build a comprehensive customer profile with conversation history, account context, and interaction timeline. |

## Usage Examples

**Analyze recent support trends:**
```
Show me the most common topics in open conversations this week
```

**Investigate a customer issue:**
```
Look up all conversations from [email protected] and summarize her issues
```

**Build a customer profile:**
```
/intercom:customer-360 [email protected]
```

**Install the Messenger:**
```
/intercom:install-messenger react
```

**Install the CLI:**
```
/intercom:install-cli
```

**Get conversation details:**
```
Pull up conversation #12345 and show me the full thread
```

## Access & Limitations

- **Safe, read-only access** — The plugin can search and retrieve data but cannot create, update, or delete conversations, contacts, or other Intercom objects. Your workspace data is never modified.
- **US region only** — Currently supports US-hosted Intercom workspaces. EU and Australia region support is planned.
- **Rate limits** — Search operations are subject to Intercom API rate limits. The MCP server handles throttling automatically.
