Team Communication Management

This MCP Server lets all developers access communication tools via a shared `.vscode/mcp.json` file. You can use `list_messages` to review team chats, and `send_message` to send out alerts. The entire team sees the same capabilities for managing communications.

Client & Template Setup

Managing contacts is simple. Use `list_customers` or run `search_customers` to pull customer records into your workspace. You can also standardize outreach by calling `list_templates` first, then using the tool to send out structured messages.

System Health Checks

Need to verify if the WhatsApp service is up? Run `check_wasmart_status`. It gives an immediate health report on connectivity. Additionally, you can check who your agents are with `list_agents` before running any bulk operations.
