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-messages scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

WhatsApp Messages — Search & Read

ROUTING RULE: NEVER open WhatsApp in Chrome or any browser. ALWAYS use the MCP tools below. Chrome is a fallback ONLY if MCP tools explicitly error out.

Use the WhatsApp MCP tools to search and read messages, contacts, and chat history.

Available Tools

The following MCP tools are available (prefixed with the WhatsApp MCP server name):

Contacts:

  • search_contacts(query) — search contacts by name or phone number

Messages:

  • list_messages(after, before, sender_phone_number, chat_jid, query, limit, page, include_context, context_before, context_after) — search messages with filters
  • get_message_context(message_id, before, after) — get surrounding messages for context

Chats:

  • list_chats(query, limit, page, include_last_message, sort_by) — list chats, optionally filtered
  • get_chat(chat_jid, include_last_message) — get chat metadata by JID
  • get_direct_chat_by_contact(sender_phone_number) — find a direct chat by phone number
  • get_contact_chats(jid, limit, page) — all chats involving a contact
  • get_last_interaction(jid) — most recent message with a contact

Media:

  • download_media(message_id, chat_jid) — download media attachment from a message

Workflow

  1. Identify the target — if the user mentions a person's name, first use search_contacts to find their JID or phone number.
  2. Find the chat — use list_chats or get_direct_chat_by_contact to locate the relevant chat.
  3. Search messages — use list_messages with appropriate filters:
    • query for keyword search
    • after/before for date ranges (ISO-8601 format)
    • chat_jid to scope to a specific chat
    • sender_phone_number to filter by sender
    • Use include_context: true to see surrounding messages for better understanding
  4. Get context — if a message needs more context, use get_message_context with the message ID.
  5. Download media — if the user asks about images, files, or voice messages, use download_media.

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.
