Local WhatsApp MCP server — everything stays on your machine
Whatsapp MCP Local MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Local WhatsApp MCP server — everything stays on your machine.
Connect your WhatsApp to Claude Desktop. Everything stays on your machine — no cloud, no servers, developer sees nothing.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at npm on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Once Whatsapp MCP Local is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
whatsapp_status — Connection status + database statswhatsapp_list_chats — All chats sorted by most recentwhatsapp_list_groups — Group chats onlywhatsapp_find_contact — Search contacts by name or phone numberwhatsapp_get_messages — Read messages from a chat (full history)whatsapp_send_message — Send a messagewhatsapp_search_messages — Full-text search across all messagesThis sits in the team communication group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Whatsapp MCP Local's toolset — whatsapp_status, whatsapp_list_chats, whatsapp_list_groups and 4 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by khetsinghrajput; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
