Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_groupsA | List WhatsApp groups for the pinned instance. Supports search and limit to prevent large payloads. |
| find_chatsB | Find chats for the pinned instance. Supports search, limit, and offset to prevent large payloads. |
| find_contactsA | Find contacts for the pinned instance. Supports search (substring on pushName/name/remoteJid), limit, and offset to prevent large payloads. Returns normalized { remoteJid, pushName, profilePicUrl, isBusiness } — extra fields dropped. |
| find_messagesA | Find messages by remoteJid (phone number or group JID) for the pinned instance. Returns normalized { id, fromMe, remoteJid, timestamp, type, text, mediaKey?, quotedMessageId? } — raw payload dropped to prevent overflow. |
| get_chat_historyA | Get chat history for a specific contact or group JID. Returns normalized { id, fromMe, remoteJid, timestamp, type, text, mediaKey?, quotedMessageId? } — raw payload dropped to prevent overflow. |
| send_textA | Send a text message via the pinned WhatsApp instance. |
| send_mediaB | Send a media message (image, video, audio, document) via the pinned instance. |
| get_group_infoA | Get detailed info for a specific WhatsApp group. By default returns { id, subject, subjectOwner, subjectTime, size, desc, descId, creation, owner, admins } — participant list is dropped to prevent payload overflow.

Coverage depends on how many participants sent messages in the lookback window — silent members stay unresolved. Phone field is ready to use with send_text. Requires EVOLUTION_DB_URL env var pointing to Evolution's Postgres. |
