Codex review: needs maintainer review before merge. Reviewed June 5, 2026, 3:53 PM ET / 19:53 UTC. Summary Reproducibility: not applicable. this is a feature PR rather than a bug report. The PR body supplies redacted real-data proof, and the diff adds focused CLI/control tests for the new behavior. Review metrics: 2 noteworthy metrics.
Merge readiness Overall follows the weaker of proof and patch quality, so missing proof can cap an otherwise strong patch. Risk before merge

Security Review detailsBest possible solution: Merge the narrow v0 WhatsApp producer in lockstep with the linked clawdex and telecrawl PRs, preserving Do we have a high-confidence way to reproduce the issue? Not applicable; this is a feature PR rather than a bug report. The PR body supplies redacted real-data proof, and the diff adds focused CLI/control tests for the new behavior. Is this the best way to solve the issue? Yes, if maintainers accept the v0 slice: the implementation keeps extraction source-owned, exposes only display names and phone numbers, and pins the metadata command to archive-only AGENTS.md: not found in the target repository.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
can people ever miss a JID?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Not in the archived contacts that contacts export reads. readContacts coalesces the source JID and skips rows where c.JID == "", so the archive contact table should not contain JID-less contacts after extraction. This fixture name is about a contact that has a JID but no phone number; exportContacts skips it because clawdex v0 only imports contacts with a display name and phone number.
The separate JID-safety case is the jid@s.whatsapp.net row above it: that proves we do not use a JID-looking value as display_name, and the key-shape assertion proves no jid field leaks into the v0 payload.

What: - suppress exact duplicate contact-export name and phone rows - compare unsafe contact names case-insensitively - cover duplicate and case-insensitive identity-name rejection in tests Why: - keep wacrawl behavior aligned with the shared crawler contact-export contract - avoid producer drift before clawdex imports contacts from multiple crawlers Tests: - git diff --check (pass) - nix shell nixpkgs#go --command go test ./... (pass) - nix shell nixpkgs#go --command go vet ./... (pass) - nix shell nixpkgs#go --command go build -o bin/wacrawl ./cmd/wacrawl (pass)

These three PRs are one contact-export v0 slice. Source crawlers own source-native contact extraction; clawdex owns canonical people and imports by pulling the crawler metadata
contact-exportcommand. They should land in lockstep; if the command name, metadata argv, envelope, or field names change in one repo, all three should change together.Intent
The discoverable local
contact-exportmetadata command is intentional. Local opt-in export of stored contact display names and phone numbers is intentional. This is the feature boundary, not an accidental privacy expansion.The metadata command is local, read-only, and archive-only:
wacrawl --json --sync never contacts export. It does not fetch remote data and does not include usernames, JIDs, LIDs, message bodies, raw paths, source ids, interaction counts, ranking signals, or graph/candidate fields.Boundary
This is the WhatsApp producer side of the same contact-import slice as
openclaw/clawdex#2andopenclaw/telecrawl#9. The crawler owns WhatsApp-native contact extraction; clawdex owns canonical people and imports by pulling the metadata-advertisedcontact-exportcommand.This is intentionally a local CLI/control metadata surface, not a generic crawler-to-crawler protocol, graph layer, or candidate model.
