No free option, status page or security contact was found, and the plugin's tool definitions weren't readable. **Brea.** Brea is an iMessage assistant with a free plan that needs no card, approval by reply before it sends, deletes or pays, and one-time Link cards for purchases. No outside agent can call it, paid prices sit inside the app, and no changelog or subprocessor list was found. ## Before you call either ### Boski 1. Use the Boski plugin only to read the owner's saved preferences and constraints. It can't save changes. 2. Ask the owner to finish Boski's onboarding interview if the plugin says it's incomplete, then retry. ### Brea 1. Don't plan to call Brea from another agent. It answers only the owner's iMessage thread. 2. Tell the owner that replying ALWAYS stops Brea asking again for that action. ## Questions ### Which is better for AI agents, Boski or Brea?

Boski competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default. - Brea competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds.
