WhatsApp MCP server

• authenticateFree

  MCP.AI for IDE agents (Cursor, etc.): log in in the browser, copy the access token. Best: add it to this server's config as a header `Authorization: Bearer <token>` for a permanent, non-expiring connection. Or paste it here for a session-only login: call with { token: "<jwt>" } after the user pastes, or with no args to get the link.

• connectFree

  Returns connection status and URLs. When all providers are connected, returns authenticated:true and empty pending[]. When credentials are missing, returns connect_url for the toolkit and per-install URLs.

• marketplaceFree

  The official mcp.ai marketplace — the in-platform catalog of every MCP/tool, AND the way to run them. Covers capability requests like "find an MCP that does X", "consulta um CPF", "is there a tool for Y". Core flow: action=search discovers MCPs by intent → describe returns one MCP's full profile (every tool with its id + params, pricing, auth) so you pick the right tool_id → invoke RUNS that tool. KEY: invoke works even when the MCP is NOT installed — it runs the tool pontualmente (one-off), without adding the MCP to the toolkit and without bloating the tool list. If the MCP needs a credential/login, invoke returns a connect link; if it is paid and the wallet is empty, invoke returns a checkout/top-up link (the user opens it, then you retry). Use install only to make an MCP PERMANENT in the active toolkit (its tools then show up natively in future sessions); prefer invoke for a single/occasional use. list_tools lists what is callable right now. subscribe/cancel handle per-MCP billing; report_bug sends feedback; request_mcp asks us to build a NEW MCP when nothing fits. Search/describe flag installed_in_toolkit vs installed_in_workspace. Writes (install/uninstall/subscribe/cancel and the one-off install behind invoke) require workspace owner/admin. It also carries the mcp.ai PROMPT LIBRARY, which is about ready-made prompt TEXT rather than MCPs: search_prompts finds one, get_prompt returns its full text with {{variables}} filled, and publish_prompt saves a prompt and returns a shareable mcp.ai/p/<slug> link that opens without login.

• report_bugFree

  Report a bug, missing feature, or send feedback. Include the conversation array with recent messages for reproduction.

• show_versionFree

  Show the current MCP platform and adapter versions.

• whatsapp_chatsFree

  List WhatsApp chats (individual + group). Sorted by most recent activity.

• whatsapp_config_getFree

  Show this install's editable-after-connect settings per connected number — currently the proxy (proxy_url): whether it's set and a masked preview (the raw value is never returned). Owner/admin or the connection owner.

• whatsapp_config_setFree

  Change an editable-after-connect setting on a connected number WITHOUT re-pairing. Today the only field is `proxy_url` — the SOCKS5/HTTPS proxy WhatsApp connects through (recommended to avoid IP bans). Owner/admin or the connection owner. - `account`: which number (id/wa_jid, phone, or label; omit if only one is connected). - `values`: e.g. { "proxy_url": "socks5://user:pass@host:port" }. An empty string CLEARS the field (e.g. { "proxy_url": "" } connects with no proxy); omit the key to keep the current value. The new value applies on the next (re)connection; the live session cache is invalidated so the next tool call uses it.

• whatsapp_history_backfillFree

  Request OLDER messages for a chat from your phone (on-demand history sync), extending what whatsapp_messages can read. Returns { status, messages_added }: - "done"/"partial": it pulled messages_added new messages — read them via whatsapp_messages (paginate with `before`). "partial" means WhatsApp stopped early; wait and retry for more. - "cooldown": you requested this chat <60s ago (retry_after_s tells you when). WhatsApp THROTTLES back-to-back requests — DO NOT retry in a loop; wait, then try once. - "timeout": the phone didn't deliver in time (offline or throttled) — already-synced history is still readable; retry later. BEST-EFFORT (gated by WhatsApp): one call usually pulls a batch (~50–70 msgs); pulling much deeper repeatedly often won't work. Connects live, may take up to ~1 minute. The initial sync already loaded deep history for most chats — check whatsapp_history_coverage first; only backfill when a chat's oldest_ts isn't far enough back.

• whatsapp_history_coverageFree

  Show how far back the LOCAL message archive reaches per chat (oldest_ts, newest_ts, message_count, status). Use it to find pagination boundaries for whatsapp_messages and to decide whether to pull more with whatsapp_history_backfill. Optional query (filter by name/JID), kind, limit, or a single chat_jid.

Call it BEFORE reading (chats/groups/messages/contacts/search) when results look stale or empty (e.g. right after connecting, or an account that hasn't synced recently). Connects live, so it may take ~20–60s. Returns { messages_stored }.

• whatsapp_webhook_getFree

  Show this WhatsApp install's outbound webhook: the current URL, the subscribed events (empty = all), include_result, and the catalog of subscribable events (available_events — e.g. whatsapp.message, whatsapp.reaction, and the whatsapp.* wildcard). Owner/admin only.

• whatsapp_webhook_setFree

  Set (or remove) this WhatsApp install's outbound webhook. Owner/admin only. - To set: pass `url` (https only, not localhost). `events` is the list of subscribed events ("permissions") — e.g. ["whatsapp.message"], or ["whatsapp.*"] for every WhatsApp event, or [] / omit for ALL events. See available_events from whatsapp_webhook_get. `include_result` (default true) controls whether the tool result is included in tool.call payloads. `secret` is optional (reserved). - Subscribing to any whatsapp.* event makes the daemon hold a live connection per number and forward inbound messages to your URL. - To remove the webhook: pass `remove: true` (or an empty url).
