Top WhatsApp skill on ClawHub — send messages and search conversation history
Wacli is the top-ranked dedicated WhatsApp skill on ClawHub and the most reliable way to give your OpenClaw agent native WhatsApp access. It lets your agent send messages to any contact or group, sync conversation history for context, and search across your entire WhatsApp thread history through plain conversation. If your clients, customers or team communicate primarily through WhatsApp, this skill makes your agent genuinely useful for those workflows. Setup requires linking your WhatsApp account once — after that your agent handles the rest.
Skim the SKILL.md before installing, and check which credentials it asks for against what it actually claims to do.
You must supply secrets for this skill to work. A skill with a valid key can do anything that key permits, so scope each one as narrowly as the provider allows and never reuse an admin key.
Declares 1 required credential: WHATSAPP_SESSION_TOKEN
It can send messages from your account. Anything it sends will look like it came from you, so mistakes are visible to other people.

It contacts external services. Outbound calls are how data leaves your machine, so it is worth knowing where it connects.

These permissions are inferred from this listing — the credentials it declares, any maintainer warning, and the operations its own description mentions. ClawVault has not audited this skill's source code. Treat it as a starting point for your own review, not a substitute for one.
An OpenClaw skill is a directory containing a SKILL.md file: Markdown with YAML frontmatter. At startup OpenClaw scans the eligible skill directories and injects a compressed description of each skill into its system prompt, so the agent knows what it can do and invokes a skill when a request matches.
openclaw skills search wacli-whatsappClawHub is the public registry for OpenClaw skills. Searching first gives you the exact owner-qualified reference, which is what the install command needs. Omit the query to browse the default feed.
openclaw skills verify @<owner>/wacli-whatsappverify prints ClawHub's verification envelope, including its scan decision and, when available, a commit-pinned source URL. Add --card to read the generated Skill Card instead. Substitute the owner handle returned by the search above.
openclaw skills install @<owner>/wacli-whatsappNative ClawHub skills use an @owner/slug reference. By default this installs into the active workspace skills/ directory; add --global to install into the shared managed directory instead. You can also install from Git with git:owner/repo, or from a local folder with ./path.
openclaw skills checkcheck reports which ready skills are actually visible to the agent's prompt surface, which is the quickest way to catch a skill that installed but did not load.
Commands follow the official OpenClaw documentation. Placeholders such as <owner> are filled in by the search step, because registry references are publisher-scoped.
Improved session management, better error handling, added group chat support
Since February 2026 ClawHub screens submitted skills with VirusTotal: each bundle is hashed and looked up, new bundles are scanned with Code Insight, and results drive an approve, warn or block decision with daily re-scanning. This materially reduces supply-chain risk but does not eliminate it, and independent research has found that different scanners frequently disagree about the same skill. Read the SKILL.md of anything you install, especially if it requests shell access or credentials.
