Send and receive WhatsApp messages via the unofficial linked-device client pywhats (pip install pywhats) — pair with QR, send text/images, group chat, read receipts, presence/typing, and a long-running JSON event stream. Use when the user wants to script WhatsApp as a linked companion device (like WhatsApp Web), pair a device, send a WhatsApp from Python, or listen for inbound messages. Triggers: 'whatsapp', 'send whatsapp', 'pair whatsapp', 'pywhats', 'linked device', 'whatsapp web client'. NOT the official WhatsApp Business/Cloud API.

Low-risk findings worth noting
W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
What this means
The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
Why it was flagged
The workflow monitors and consumes inbound WhatsApp messages via `wa.py listen`, which ingests outsider-authored free text from chat messages into the agent's runtime.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The skill instructs installation of the unofficial `pywhats` package from PyPI via `pip install` during runtime setup, representing an unverified third-party operational dependency.
