# Groups & labels

Perisclaw can handle the fiddly admin work of WhatsApp: running your groups and keeping your chats organized with labels.

## Managing groups

Ask your assistant to take care of group admin and it handles the steps for you:

* **Create a group** — *"create a group called 'Q3 Launch' with Priya, Raj, and Meena."*
* **Add or remove people** — *"add Sam to the Vendors group"* or *"remove Raj from Clients."*
* **Promote or demote admins** — *"make Priya an admin of the launch group."*
* **Share an invite link** — *"get the invite link for the Clients group."*
* **Change group settings** — e.g. who's allowed to send messages or edit the group info.
* **Leave a group** — *"leave the old project group."*

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Group changes are visible to everyone in the group,** so Perisclaw confirms membership edits before applying them — and removing people or leaving a group always needs your OK. Some actions (like removing members) require your account to be a **group admin**; if it isn't, your assistant will tell you.
{% endhint %}

When you ask Perisclaw to catch you up on a busy group, it surfaces just the decisions, action items, and open questions — not a play-by-play.

## Organizing with labels

Labels (WhatsApp Business labels) let you tag chats and messages so you can triage and find them later.

* **Label a chat** — *"label this chat 'urgent'."*
* **Label a message** — *"tag that message as 'follow up'."*
* **Tidy up everything** — *"organize my chats into clients, family, and vendors."*

For a big cleanup, Perisclaw first **proposes** the label names and which chats go where, and only applies them once you approve — so you don't end up with a mess of near-duplicate tags. It reuses labels you already have and keeps names short and clear.

{% hint style="info" %}
Labels are a great companion to [chat modes](/security-and-control/chat-modes.md) and [triggers](/skills-and-integrations/triggers.md) — for example, label your key client chats, then ask for a daily summary of just those.
{% endhint %}
