whatsapp_create_group

macOS

Purpose

Creates a WhatsApp group and adds the given participants. This NOTIFIES everyone you add and cannot be undone if the participant list is wrong, so it is a write operation: the first call (confirm=false) returns a preview of the name + participants without creating anything; set confirm=true to actually create. Resolve numbers first with whatsapp_search_contacts. ⚠️ Uses Wacli (unofficial WhatsApp client). Accounts may be restricted for ToS violations.

Required inputs

• name — Group name
• participants — Phone numbers (+E164) or JIDs to add

Permissions and confirmation

Explicit confirmation parameter: inspect the schema and tool description before any real call. The documentation example keeps confirm false. Obtain user authorization before performing the action.

• Use only the apps, accounts and resources authorized by the user on this platform. Consult this tool's platform-specific description for its connection and permission requirements; this catalog does not assert additional OAuth scopes or OS entitlements.
