Audit and Manage Templates with MCP Server

You can run a full audit of your messaging assets. Use `list_message_templates` to pull a complete list, then use `get_media` or `get_business_profile` to check associated media links. Cline processes this data into structured JSON you can immediately use in code. If templates are outdated, the server lets you execute `delete_message_template`, keeping your system clean before committing any changes.

Get Full WABA Details for Coding Tasks

Before writing a single line of sending logic, run `get_waba_details`. This tool fetches all current account parameters needed for development. You can also get a list of numbers using `list_phone_numbers`, which helps you build accurate targeting logic. This ensures your code always points to live, correct data.

Execute Messaging Logic via Cline

Sending messages is easy within the terminal. Use `send_template_message` for structured communications or `send_text_message` for quick notes. If you need to update a profile, running `get_business_profile` first makes sure your data payload matches what the API expects. This allows end-to-end testing: fetch data, write code, test communication.
