You should think also RFC 1312 for message send protocol. It is old but it is good. Person does not have to show online status, so is no presence.

It is designed to make connections using the Tor network and will therefore be a valuable piece in the privacy-enhancing software toolkit (web: Tor Browser, email: Thunderbird + TorBirdy, chat: Tor Messenger.) Based on the Instantbird IM client [0], Tor Messenger: - sends all traffic over Tor, - uses Off-the-Record (OTR) encryption [1] of conversations by default, - can be used with a wide variety of chat networks, - has an easy-to-use graphical user interface localized into multiple languages.
