whatsapp_sync

macOS

Purpose

Starts WhatsApp pulling the latest messages, groups and contacts into the local store and returns right away — it does NOT wait for the sync to finish (#1453: a first sync after linking can legitimately take minutes, and waiting for it used to get the sync itself killed by the local timeout). Call whatsapp_diagnose to see whether a sync is still running or when the last one finished. The other read tools also kick off a sync in the BACKGROUND, so the FIRST read after new activity may be stale — re-run it in a few seconds. ⚠️ Uses Wacli (unofficial WhatsApp client). Accounts may be restricted for ToS violations.
