  • Turn chosen WeChat chats into cited personal notes

    Have a coding agent write a private wiki from your chats, with each fact tied to its source message.

    View prompt
    Use the GreenBubbles personal-memory skill in the repo bojieli/greenbubbles at <skill path>. Read chats from the last month through the greenbubbles CLI and write Markdown notes, one article per life topic, with each fact citing its source message. Verify that every note fact has a citation and that no passwords or keys appear in the output.

  • Find a past message in one WeChat chat by keyword

    Search the text of a single conversation from the command line without scrolling through WeChat.

    View prompt
    Use the greenbubbles CLI from the repo bojieli/greenbubbles to search one chat. Run `greenbubbles messages search --conversation "<chat name>" --query "<keyword>"` and report the matching messages as JSON Lines. Verify that every returned message has its chat name and local time before you summarize it.

  • Rank your WeChat chats to choose which ones to review

    List your most active conversations, with one-on-one chats first, before deciding what to summarize.

    View prompt
    Use the greenbubbles CLI from the repo bojieli/greenbubbles to rank my chats with `greenbubbles chats rank`. Return the top 10 conversations with their names and self-message counts. Verify that one-on-one chats appear before group chats in the output.

  • Make an encrypted backup of your WeChat history

    Create a copy of your chat history protected by a 24-word recovery phrase, readable later without WeChat.

    View prompt
    Following docs/RECOVERABLE_SNAPSHOTS.md in the repo bojieli/greenbubbles, help me create an encrypted snapshot of my WeChat history. Report the snapshot location and confirm the 24-word recovery phrase was shown. Verify that the recovery phrase is not written to any file or sent in a prompt.
