<2-3 sentences summarising what the project addresses and solves, the target audience, and the benefit.> The WxAuto Management Tool is a Python desktop application designed to manage multiple instances of the WxAuto WeChat automation library. It targets users who need to monitor WeChat status, listen to and forward messages, and integrate with various AI platforms like Dify, OpenAI, Coze, and a smart accounting service. The tool offers enhanced stability, cross-platform management (desktop, web, mobile), and simplified deployment, significantly improving the usability and extensibility of WeChat automation.

How It Works

The application is built on a Python framework utilizing PySide6 for its desktop UI and FastAPI for its web interface. It communicates with WxAuto instances via their HTTP API. A core architectural upgrade in v2.0.0 emphasizes stability and introduces a plugin-based system for service platform integration, allowing for modular expansion. Key functionalities include real-time status monitoring, intelligent message listening and forwarding with configurable rules, and seamless integration with multiple AI services, including smart accounting features.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Primary Install/Run: Execute the packaged wxauto_mgt.exe or run python wxauto_mgt/main.py from the project root.
• Prerequisites: Python 3.11+, PySide6, aiofiles. Dependencies are listed in requirements.txt. A Conda environment is recommended for setup.
• Setup: Installation involves cloning the repository and installing dependencies via pip.
• Links:
  • WxAuto原项目: https://github.com/cluic/wxauto
  • WxAuto HTTP API: https://github.com/zj591227045/WXAUTO-HTTP-API

Highlighted Details

• Cross-Platform Management: Offers dedicated interfaces for desktop, web (remote access), and mobile devices.
• AI Service Integration: Supports Dify, OpenAI-compatible APIs, Coze, and a "Zhiweijz" (只为记账) smart accounting platform with automatic message parsing for expenses.
• Plugin Architecture: A new plugin system is designed to support future AI platforms and third-party extensions.
• Simplified Deployment: Features one-click startup for the API client and instance addition, reducing setup complexity.

Maintenance & Community

The project acknowledges contributions from "@PawNzZi". Further community links (Discord/Slack, roadmap) are not explicitly provided in the README.

Licensing & Compatibility

• License: MIT License.
• Compatibility: The MIT license is permissive and generally compatible with commercial and closed-source applications. However, it requires the separate WXAUTO-HTTP-API project to function.

Limitations & Caveats

The project explicitly states it cannot run independently and requires the companion WXAUTO-HTTP-API project. While v2.0.0 brings significant enhancements, features like a plugin market are listed as "upcoming." The stability of the plugin system and its extensibility are yet to be fully proven in production.
