WhatsApp Auto-Reply Agent
A Python automation agent that watches WhatsApp Web and automatically replies to specific contacts (mom + friends) when you're busy — using Google Gemini AI to generate natural, human-like responses.

💡 What It Does

Opens WhatsApp Web using Selenium (Chrome)
Watches for new messages from specified contacts only
Uses Google Gemini AI to generate short, calm, context-aware replies
Replies differently based on who messaged (mom vs friend)
Prevents infinite reply loops (won't reply to its own messages)
Won't reply to the same message twice


🗂️ Project Structure

├── main.py           # Entry point — ties everything together, main loop
├── whatsapp.py       # Selenium logic — opens browser, reads & sends messages
├── ai.py             # Google Gemini API — generates human-like replies
├── filters.py        # Safety checks — blocks unsafe or looping replies
├── test_replies.py   # Test AI replies without opening browser
├── .env              # Your API keys and config (never commit this!)

⚙️ Setup Instructions
1. Clone the repo
bashgit clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_REPO_NAME.git
cd YOUR_REPO_NAME
2. Create and activate virtual environment
bashpython -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate        # Windows
source venv/bin/activate     # Mac/Linux
3. Install dependencies
bashpip install -r requirements.txt
4. Get your Google Gemini API key

Go to aistudio.google.com
Click Get API Key → Create API Key
It's completely free

5. Create your .env file
envGOOGLE_API_KEY=your_gemini_api_key_here
MOM_CONTACT_NAME=Sujathamma
FRIEND_CONTACT_NAME=Sharmishta
CHECK_INTERVAL_SECONDS=15
YOUR_NAME=Tej
YOUR_AGE=20
LANGUAGE_STYLE=casual Telugu-English mix

🚀 Running the Agent
Test AI replies first (no browser needed)
bashpython test_replies.py
Run the full agent
bashpython main.py
On first run, a Chrome window will open with WhatsApp Web. Scan the QR code with your phone:

Open WhatsApp → tap three dots → Linked Devices → Link a Device
Scan the QR code

After the first scan, your session is saved in chrome_profile/ so you won't need to scan again.

🧠 How the AI Works
The agent uses Google Gemini 2.0 Flash with a custom system prompt tailored to each contact:
For Mom :

Replies in Tenglish (Telugu words in English script)
Calm, loving, reassuring tone
Examples: tinanu don't worry, class lo unna, sare le call chesta

For Friend:

Casual and friendly tone
Natural Telugu-English mix

The filters.py file validates every reply before sending — blocking replies that are too long, contain questions, or use inappropriate words.

🔒 Safety Features

Loop prevention — detects if the last message was sent by you and skips
Duplicate detection — won't reply to the same message twice
Safe fallback — if AI reply is unsafe or API fails, sends "phone was on silent <3"
Contact filter — only replies to contacts listed in .env, ignores everyone else
