Read when: diagnosing store layout, auth state, FTS/search support, locks, or optional live connectivity.

wacli doctor reports local health information and can optionally connect to WhatsApp.

Command

wacli doctor [--connect]

Notes

• Without --connect, doctor avoids live WhatsApp connection.
• --connect requires auth and the store lock.
• Output includes local store counts, auth identity when available, FTS/search state, and lock details.
• Use --json for machine-readable diagnostics.
