What problem does it solve?

This skill lets a user link their phone's WhatsApp account to Claude Code so they can send and receive messages, ask the assistant about past chats, and manage who the assistant may message — all without manual file edits or constant developer help. It removes the friction of QR pairing, environment setup, and ongoing channel management so non-technical users can use WhatsApp as a trusted assistant channel.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Guided Install & Pairing: Conversational, step-by-step Phase 1 flow that detects OS and shell, installs the helper tool if needed, and hands off a single launch command for QR pairing.
• Everyday Messaging: Phase 2 tools to send messages, read inbound messages, list chats, and query on-demand history across sessions.
• Allowlist & Safety: Self-only default with explicit allowlist management, E.164 validation, restart instructions, and a mandatory user-facing risk disclosure about potential account bans.
• Troubleshooting: Diagnoses for common failures (PATH, permissions, QR timeouts, blocked channels) and integration with a systematic debugging skill when available.
• Use Case Example: Link a secondary business number, receive customer inquiries via WhatsApp, and ask the assistant to summarize recent messages and draft replies.
