// , We can agree that SSH is a shell application focused on security, right? What makes it so that these implementations of the Tox protocol are not message applications focused on security? How would you suggest that I reword this question to fit the rules in the help center?– Nathan BasaneseJun 16, 2015 at 23:38

Yes, they are capable of speaking the same protocol, and communicating with each other.
Every client listed on https://wiki.tox.im/Client has the ability to speak with each other at the basic level. In the table at the bottom, you will find a list of clients and the features they support. When two clients that share a capability talk with each other, they can also use that capability between them.
