Perplexity

Sending Text Messages from the Terminal

Use `send_whatsapp_text` directly from your shell scripts. This lets you pipe output or status updates to a specific WhatsApp number without needing any GUI overhead. This is perfect for headless alerting. If a script fails, instead of logging locally, Claude Code sends the error message as plain text via this MCP Server.

Templating Messages in Automation

The `list_whatsapp_templates` tool lets your pipeline verify available templates before sending. You then use `send_whatsapp_template` to send structured alerts. This is essential for consistent alerting. Instead of hardcoding variable values, you let the server handle the message structure and filling in dynamic data like build numbers.

Handling Media Details Headlessly

When running background jobs, `get_whatsapp_media_details` allows your script to pull media metadata for logging or reporting purposes. You get the details without needing a visual client. Need an acknowledgment? Use `send_whatsapp_reaction` to update status indicators in message logs directly from your command line.
