How to ask WhatsApp about your Gmail and Calendar with Wappy Kit

Text the bot in plain English to find emails or check your calendar, using your own Google account.

Credentials. The agent gets read access to your Gmail and Calendar through your own Google OAuth grant, so only connect an account you are comfortable exposing to a local agent.

Who it is forA busy professional who wants quick answers about mail and meetings without opening the Gmail or Calendar apps.

The problemChecking the calendar or searching old email means switching apps and building precise search queries by hand.

The outcomeA WhatsApp agent that answers questions like what is on today's calendar, and searches your mail in plain language.

What you need first

  • Node.js 22 or newer
  • A WhatsApp Cloud API app from Meta's developer portal with a phone number, access token, and app secret
  • A model API key from OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini, or a local Ollama install
  • A Google account, only if you use the Gmail/Calendar assistant

Steps

  1. Run npm create @wappy_ai/agent and answer Yes to the productivity agent question.
  2. Run cp .env.sample .env and add your model key and WhatsApp credentials.
  3. Run npm install.
  4. Run npm run dev, then open the local Google connect page the project serves and sign in with your own Google account.
  5. Text the bot "What's on my calendar today?" and check that it answers from your real calendar.

Prompt for your agent

In the csr1010/wappy-kit repo, scaffold a project with `npm create @wappy_ai/agent` into ./<project-dir> and choose the productivity agent. Expected output: a project that includes the Gmail/Calendar tools and a local Google connect page. Verify that the generated tools are read-only and that no send or delete function was added.

Caveat. The README says the tools only read and never send or delete mail, and that the bot reports honestly when Google is not yet connected.
