whatsapp-mcp CLAUDE.md

whatsapp-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from kotevcode/whatsapp-mcp. It costs 233 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project-specific instructions for developing a TypeScript server that connects an AI agent to WhatsApp. WhatsApp is a messaging service; the instructions cover its message tools, code layout and commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing or debugging the WhatsApp MCP server, including reading groups, querying messages, calculating statistics and sending messages.
Why use it?
They give an agent the project context needed to change the server without overlooking its connection, message storage or validation rules.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

whatsapp-mcp CLAUDE.md 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 3d 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.

What it actually says

WhatsApp MCP Server

Project

MCP server connecting to WhatsApp via Baileys, providing tools for reading group messages, stats, and sending messages. Used as an MCP tool by Claude Code.

Tech Stack

  • TypeScript, Node.js (ESM)
  • Baileys (WhatsApp Web API)
  • MCP SDK (@modelcontextprotocol/sdk)
  • Zod for schema validation

Structure

  • src/whatsapp.ts - WhatsApp connection, message store, history sync
  • src/mcp-server.ts - MCP tool registrations
  • src/store.ts - Message querying, stats computation
  • src/tools/ - Individual tool implementations (groups, messages, stats, send)
  • store/message-store.json - Persisted message store (JSON, flushed every 30s)
  • auth_info/ - WhatsApp auth state (do not commit)

Dev

  • npm run dev - Run with tsx
  • npm run build - Compile with tsc
  • Messages from history sync have string timestamps (not numbers) - both must be handled
Changes

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.
