Channel
WhatsApp Business stays on whatsapp-service.
WhatsApp uses Meta Business API through whatsapp-service. It is not migrated into OpenClaw. Like other customer channels, it is licensed per tenant and calls workflows as tools.

What WhatsApp is (and is not)
Licensed customer channel. OpenClaw does not replace this integration.
Meta Business API
Production WhatsApp is the dedicated service, not a generic social connector.
Tenant scoped
Sender linking and inbound grants follow the same channel-onboarding rules as Teams and e-mail.
Not OpenClaw
Telegram / mobile nodes use OpenClaw. WhatsApp Business remains on whatsapp-service.
