wechat-send

# WeChat Send Send messages to WeChat contacts by automating the macOS WeChat desktop app. ## Prerequisites - WeChat for Mac installed and **logged in** - macOS **Accessibility permission** granted to `node` (System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility) - WeChat window must be **open** (not minimized to dock) ## Usage Run the script: ```bash bash scripts/wechat_send.sh "<contact_name>" "<message>" ``` ### Examples ```bash # Send a simple message bash scripts/wechat_send.sh "Ryan" "你好！" # Send a longer message bash scripts/wechat_send.sh "Ellison" "明天下午3点开会，别忘了带文件" ``` ## How It Works 1. Activates WeChat and opens search (Cmd+F) 2. Types the contact name, selects the first result (Enter), closes search (Escape) 3. Clicks the message input field using JXA CGEvent mouse simulation 4. Pastes the message from clipboard (Cmd+V) and sends (Enter) ## Limitations - Contact name must **exactly match** a WeChat contact (first search result is selected) - Cannot send images or files (text only) - Cannot read incoming messages - WeChat window position affects click coordinates (auto-calculated from window bounds) - If the contact search returns wrong results, the message goes to the wrong person — use specific names - Only one message at a time; for multiple recipients, call the script multiple times ## Troubleshooting - **Message not sent**: Ensure WeChat window is visible (not minimized) and the correct contact was found - **Accessibility error**: Re-grant node permission in System Settings → Accessibility, then restart the gateway - **Wrong contact**: Use a more specific name to avoid ambiguous search results
