node scripts/lookup-conversation.js --phone-number <e164>

Triage errors

Preferred path:

Confirm project and number state:
```
kapso status
```

Run number health:

kapso whatsapp numbers health --phone-number "<display-number>" --output human

Inspect related templates when relevant:

kapso whatsapp templates list --phone-number "<display-number>" --output json

Fallback path:

Message errors:
```
node scripts/errors.js
```
API logs:
```
node scripts/api-logs.js
```

Notes

For webhook setup (create/update/delete, signature verification, event types), use
```
integrate-whatsapp
```
.
Prefer resolving a display phone number to the canonical
```
phone_number_id
```
before deep debugging.
Keep the scripts as the fallback path when the CLI is unavailable or when you need API-log or webhook-delivery inspection.
