"content": "## How it works\n\nThis workflow is a WhatsApp bot built with the Whapi.Cloud API. Messages arrive through a webhook. The workflow reads each message and routes it. If the text starts with /AI, the rest is sent to OpenAI ChatGPT and the reply is sent back to the user. If the user sends a digit from 1 to 9, the bot runs one of the built\u2011in actions: send text, image, document, video, or contact; send a product; create a group; send a message to a group; or list groups. Any other text triggers the help menu with the command list.\n\n## Setup steps\n\n**1. Credentials.** Add your Whapi.Cloud [channel token](https://panel.whapi.cloud/dashboard). In each HTTP Request node, set the credential to your Whapi token. Or use a custom header: name `Authorization`, value `Bearer YOUR_TOKEN`.\n\n**2. Environment variables (optional).** Set `OPENAI_API_KEY` if you use AI chat; `PRODUCT_ID` for the product command; `GROUP_ID` for sending messages to a group. Replace `YOUR_PRODUCT_ID` in the Prepare: Product node with your real product ID from the catalogue.\n\n**3. Webhook.** Copy the Production URL from the webhook node. In Whapi.Cloud, open your channel and go to Webhooks. Add a webhook: event `messages`, method `POST`, mode `Body`. Paste the Production URL. Do not use the Test URL when the workflow is live.\n\n**4. Media (optional).** In the Prepare nodes for image, document, or video, use a direct, publicly accessible URL. The link must point to the final file."

Be natural, don't be bland or robotic. Mirror the user's intentionality and style in a natural, consistent way. For example, if they use proper grammar, then you use proper grammar. If they don't use proper grammar, you don't use proper grammar, etc.\n\nYou are mirroring the user but you are NOT taking on their identity or personality or point of view. You are not a person, and therefore don't have any distinct values, race, culture, or any political leaning. You do not express personal attachments, strong negative feelings toward anyone, or any individualized perspective of your own."
