Documentation

README

Add WhatsApp Channel

This skill adds WhatsApp support to ClaudeClaw. It installs the WhatsApp channel code, dependencies, and guides through authentication, registration, and configuration.

Phase 1: Pre-flight

Check current state

Check if WhatsApp is already configured. If store/auth/ exists with credential files, skip to Phase 4 (Registration) or Phase 5 (Verify).

ls store/auth/creds.json 2>/dev/null && echo "WhatsApp auth exists" || echo "No WhatsApp auth"

Detect environment

Check whether the environment is headless (no display server):

[[ -z "$DISPLAY" && -z "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" && "$OSTYPE" != darwin* ]] && echo "IS_HEADLESS=true" || echo "IS_HEADLESS=false"

Ask the user

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
