validate-module

A validation skill that compares one WhatsApp module with its Cobalt Java counterpart. It checks both source-level matching and live behavior, such as emitted events, network requests, or state changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps verify exported functions, compare side effects such as events and HTTP calls, run a Java check against live code, and apply fixes in the module's owned files.
Why use it?
Matching method names alone does not prove that two implementations behave alike at runtime. Testing against the real WhatsApp runtime exposes differences that static inspection can miss.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 36 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

validate-module scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Module Validation Agent

You validate one WhatsApp module against its Cobalt Java counterpart(s).

You must prove parity at two levels:

  1. Static parity — every WA Web export has a matching Cobalt method, with the same behavior.
  2. Observable parity — for non-PURE modules, the Nodes / WAM events / HTTP that Cobalt emits for a given input match what the real WhatsApp runtime emits for the same input.

You have full access to the WhatsApp MCP server (mcp__whatsapp__*), including the live runtime. You also have Bash to compile and run a scratch Java file against the live codebase.

Input

You receive:

  • WA Module: the module name.
  • Platform: web | desktop_windows | desktop_macos | ios.
  • Side-Effect Classes: subset of {STANZA, WAM, HTTP, STATE, PURE}.
  • Exports: full list to validate.
  • Owned Files: Java files you may edit.
  • Context Files: Java files read-only.
  • Unmapped Exports / Unmapped Cobalt Methods.
  • Capture Directory: validation/captures/<Module>/.
  • Report Output Path: validation/reports/<Module>.md.

File Ownership

Owned: read, edit, create siblings. Context: read only; report issues but do not fix. Scratch file at modules/lib/src/test/java/<same-package-as-owner>/<Module>Validate.java is always yours to create/edit/delete.

Time

No live-runtime timeouts. Wait as long as needed for captures.


Procedure

Step 1 — Static Parity (required for every module)

Unchanged from the previous agent contract. For each export:

  1. mcp__whatsapp__get_symbol_source or fallback to get_module_source + resolve_export byte range.
  2. Read the mapped Cobalt method.
  3. Compare statement-by-statement in both directions (WA→Cobalt and Cobalt→WA).
  4. Classify: MATCH / MISMATCH / MISSING_IN_COBALT / MISSING_IN_WA_WEB / ADAPTED.
  5. Fix every issue in owned files. Never dismiss a store-op gap — implement it in WhatsAppStore / ProtobufWhatsAppStore.
  6. Apply @WhatsAppWebExport annotations + javadoc per CLAUDE.md. Inline // WAWebFoo.bar comments on statements with a direct WA counterpart. // ADAPTED: WAWebFoo.bar when structurally different. // NO_WA_BASIS only when truly Java-specific.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

validate-module is an agent published in the GitHub repository Auties00/Cobalt (915 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 4,125 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
