The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Drive a WhatsApp account as a linked companion device (like WhatsApp Web)
from async Python via pywhats (pre-alpha,
text/image only). This is an unofficial multi-device client — not the
official WhatsApp Business / Cloud API.
CLI entrypoint: scripts/wa.py (auto-bootstraps a managed venv on first run).
wa.py pair shows an ASCII QR; scan it in
WhatsApp → Linked Devices. Credentials persist to
$PYWHATS_HOME/<session>.session (+ .signal.db).15550001234 → [email protected];
groups use [email protected].wa.py listen prints one JSON object per event.Event handlers run inline on the receive loop. Awaiting send_*,
mark_read, get_group_info, download_media, etc. inside a handler
deadlocks the connection. Always asyncio.create_task(...). The listen
subcommand already does this for --read.
