 * Problem
 I want a Signal chat client inside Emacs: link it as a secondary device to my phone, pick a contact from my contact list, hold a text 1:1 conversation (read and send), and get a desktop notification on incoming messages, with an optional sound. Signal has no official API, so this is built on =signal-cli=, the mature headless CLI, driven over JSON-RPC.
