## Source excerpt

Vercel Connect now includes a managed connector for Linq, so your apps and agents can send and receive messages over iMessage, RCS, and SMS. As a Vercel Managed Connector, Vercel can create a Linq account and phone number for you, or link an existing account. You never manage credentials yourself. Create a connector from the dashboard or Vercel CLI: Give your eve agent a phone number The connector powers the new Linq channel in eve. Run eve add channel/linq, choose Vercel Connect, and eve wires up the connector, phone numbers, and webhook for you: The channel marks accepted messages as read and continues the same eve session for every message in a Linq conversation. Out of the box, the channel supports read receipts, typing indicators, and mid-conversation steering for a more natural messaging experience. Use the connector in any project Call getToken with your connector, and the @vercel/connect SDK exchanges your Vercel deployment's OIDC identity for a short-lived Linq token. Pass it as the bearer token on any Linq Partner API request: Linq delivers each message over the best protocol the recipient supports, starting with iMessage, then RCS, then SMS. The same token works across the full Linq API, including group chats, reactions, rich media, and typing indicators.
