Install

What It Covers

• Chat ID formats (@s.whatsapp.net, @g.us, @newsletter) — the #1 source of errors
• MCP server (whapi-mcp) setup for Cursor and Claude Code
• Webhook setup and incoming message handling (polling is an anti-pattern)
• Sending all message types: text, media, interactive buttons, polls, reactions
• Group, Channel (Newsletter), and Community management
• Ready-made patterns: bot, safe broadcast with rate limits, poll response tracking
