Claude Deployed as Microsoft Teams Responder — Terminal Agent with Full Local Repo Access

r/ClaudeAI·medium signal

An r/ClaudeAI developer (190 upvotes, 38 comments) built a system where Claude monitors Teams messages from a persistent terminal process with access to all local repos, answering colleagues' code questions with live codebase context. The pattern extends yesterday's MCP Channels approach (Telegram/Discord) to Microsoft's enterprise-dominant chat platform. The key builder detail: Claude runs from terminal, not from a Teams integration — keeping full tool and repo access intact.
