Refreshing the chat screen (decided: a refresh button, not background real-time)\n\nA chat that is open shows nothing new until it is re-opened. Decision: no background streaming — a **refresh control** loads what's new on demand, which fits the operator-console character and keeps the page quiet:\n\n- A refresh button on the messages pane (and one for the chat list); clicking fetches only messages newer than the newest a", "SourceUrl": "https://github.com/Idle-Sync/whatsapp-connect-mcp/issues/19", "PublishedAt": "2026-08-24T12:32:07.000Z", "State": "closed", "Comments": 0, "Reporter": "Contributor", "Rank": "top", "Extractor": "github_issue" }, { "Title": "Captioned documents decode as media-less kind 'other' — DocumentWithCaptionMessage wrapper is not unwrapped", "Excerpt": "## Summary\n\nA document sent **with a caption** is stored as kind `other` with no text, no filename, and no media reference — `download_media` on it fails with `message media: message has no media`.

Scheduled sends (\"send on timer\")\n\nSend a message or media at a future time, or after a delay, instead of immediately.\n\n**Sketch:**\n- Either an optional `send_at` (RFC 3339) / `delay` param on the existing send tools, or a dedicated `schedule_send` + `list_scheduled` + `cancel_scheduled` trio.\n- **The gate still applies at fire time.** An untrusted recipient must not become a way to fire unattended se", "SourceUrl": "https://github.com/Idle-Sync/whatsapp-connect-mcp/issues/3", "PublishedAt": "2026-08-18T08:28:52.000Z", "State": "closed", "Comments": 3, "Reporter": "Contributor", "Rank": "top", "Extractor": "github_issue" }, { "Title": "list_messages: handle time server-side instead of raw Unix seconds + agent translation", "Excerpt": "## Problem\n\n`list_messages` (and any other time-bounded tool) takes `after` / `before` as **raw Unix seconds**. To answer an ordinary request like \"today's messages\" or \"yesterday's messages\", the agent has to:\n\n1. Know the user's timezone (guessed from context — here, IST for a Kolkata group).\n2.
