Example prompts
- “/c-messaging”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a2562d1. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
C Messaging loads about 568 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 106 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

wacli unread # Show unread messages
wacli group list # List WhatsApp groups
wacli group send "Group Name" "Message"
wacli status "Your status text" # Set WhatsApp statusUsage Guidelines
- Use
imsgfor iMessage/SMS to Apple devices or phone numbers. - Use
waclifor WhatsApp contacts. - Phone numbers should include country code (e.g., +1 for US).
- Check
imsg unreadorwacli unreadbefore sending follow-ups. - If a contact name is ambiguous, prefer using the phone number directly.
Notes
imsgrequires macOS and an active iMessage account.waclirequires WhatsApp to be linked — runwacli authto scan QR code on first use.- Both tools operate locally; no cloud API credentials required after initial auth.
