What this server can do
5 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.
ask(text, buttons, timeout)- Ask the human a question on WhatsApp and BLOCK until they reply (or timeout). `text` is the question. `buttons` (optional, up to 3) render as tappable reply buttons; omit them to invite a free-text answer the human types on their phone — use this to let the human steer you mid-task. `timeout` is seconds to wait (max 90). Returns the human's reply (free text and/or the chosen option). On timeout, returns a note — the question was delivered and the answer is still retrievable via `check_replies`. Required: text.
check_replies(wait, since)- Pull inbound WhatsApp messages the human sent to pingwa (out-of-band instructions, or late answers to an `ask`). `since` is a cursor from a previous call (pass it back to get only newer messages); `wait` long-polls up to that many seconds for something to arrive. Returns the messages and a new cursor.
check_status- Show the pingwa account's plan, remaining monthly quota, and whether the free 24h WhatsApp reply window is currently open.
notify(text, image_url)- Send a WhatsApp notification to the account owner's own phone. `text` is the message (1-1024 chars). `image_url` (optional) is a public https image link — a screenshot, chart or diff — delivered as an image with `text` as the caption when the user's 24h window is open (otherwise text only). Returns a confirmation with the queued message id; raises an actionable error on quota/auth. Required: text.
upgrade- Get a link to upgrade the account to Pro (raises the monthly quota). Returns a Stripe Checkout URL for the human to open and pay — no pingwa password needed, the card is handled by Stripe. If the account is already Pro, returns a billing-portal URL to manage or cancel instead.

Signals
These are separate measurements of different things. They are deliberately not combined into one score, because a popularity number that mixes website traffic with saves and stars cannot be checked or acted on.
| Signal | Value | What it measures | Window | Observed | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GitHub stars | 0 | Number of GitHub accounts that bookmarked this repository since it was created. It is a bookmark count, not installs, not active users and not quality. | cumulative, all time | GitHub | |
| Last commit | 2026-07-22 | Date of the most recent push to any branch. This is the strongest cheap indicator of whether the project is still maintained. | point in time | GitHub | |
| Open issues | 0 | Open issues plus open pull requests, as GitHub counts them together. A high number can mean an active project or an abandoned one. | as of fetch | GitHub | |
| Latest published version | 0.4.1 | Latest version string the maintainer published to the registry. | as of fetch | Model Context Protocol | |
| Registry record last updated | 2026-07-16 | When the registry record was last updated by its maintainer. | point in time | Model Context Protocol | |
| License | MIT | Licence GitHub detected in the repository. Detection can be wrong; the LICENSE file is authoritative. | as of fetch | GitHub | |
| First listed in the MCP Registry | 2026-07-16 | Date this server was first published to the official MCP Registry. Not a usage or quality measure. | point in time | Model Context Protocol | |
| repository status | active | The repository exists on GitHub and is not archived. This says nothing about how recently it was worked on. | as of fetch | GitHub | |
| mcp tools declared | 5 tools | Number of functions the server itself declared when asked to list them. This is what the server offers an agent, not a measure of how well any of them work. | as of probe | pingwa.dev | |
| mcp endpoint status | ok | The server listed 5 functions when asked. | as of probe | pingwa.dev |

These share tags the maintainers applied themselves, such as notifications, whatsapp, cli. Common tags like "mcp" or "ai" are ignored for this: agreeing with six hundred other projects is not a similarity.
This is not a recommendation and not a test result. It is a map of what the authors said their work is about.
