Implement messaging logic with the Wati Alternative MCP Server

The `send_template_message` tool lets you programmatically send pre-approved WhatsApp templates. You can build a function that triggers this when a user hits 'checkout,' for example. Cline runs this in your environment, so you write the API call and it executes against the Wati Alternative MCP Server directly.

Maintain contact records via Cline

Need to know who's talking? The `get_contacts` tool pulls a complete list of contacts from Wati into your running code. You can then filter or map this data in your dashboard component. This means you get the raw, usable JSON structure right inside your development environment.

Programmatic operator routing with Cline

The `assign_operator` tool lets your code assign a specific agent to a chat. This is ideal for backend logic where an incoming message needs immediate, dedicated human handling. You write the assignment function; Cline runs it and proves the connection works.
