wacrawl is a read-only local archive tool for WhatsApp Desktop on macOS. It snapshots the local SQLite databases (ChatStorage.sqlite, ContactsV2.sqlite) without modifying them. Use it for searching chat history, exporting conversations, and creating encrypted backups.
This is different from wacli — wacrawl is read-only archaeology of local data; wacli is an active WhatsApp Web client for sending/receiving messages.
