Add Feishu Bot to Openclaw
Automates the full workflow of registering a new Feishu bot in openclaw: JSON config edits, workspace creation, gateway restart, and optional pairing approval.
Required inputs
Gather these from the user before starting (ask in one message if any are missing):
| Field | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
agentId | Short unique name for this bot/agent | dabao |
appId | Feishu App ID from the Feishu Open Platform | cli_xxxxxxxxxxxx |
appSecret | Feishu App Secret | your-app-secret-here |
pairingCode | (optional) Pairing code if the bot is already added to a group | LNPQR9W9 |
Steps
Execute all steps in order. Read the config file first so you can do targeted edits rather than overwriting the whole file.
Step 1 — Read current config
Read ~/.openclaw/openclaw.jsonStep 2 — Edit channels.feishu
If feishu uses the old single-account format (has appId/appSecret at top level, no accounts key):
Migrate to multi-account structure — replace the entire feishu block:
"feishu": {
"enabled": true,
"domain": "feishu",
"groupPolicy": "open",
"defaultAccount": "default",
"accounts": {
"default": {
"appId": "<existing-appId>",
"appSecret": "<existing-appSecret>"
},
"<agentId>": {
"appId": "<new-appId>",
"appSecret": "<new-appSecret>"
}
}
}If feishu already has accounts (multi-account format):
Add just the new account entry inside accounts:
"<agentId>": {
"appId": "<appId>",
"appSecret": "<appSecret>"
}Step 3 — Add agent to agents.list
Append to the agents.list array:
{
"id": "<agentId>",
"workspace": "~/.openclaw/workspace-<agentId>",
"subagents": {
"allowAgents": ["*"]
}
}Step 4 — Add binding to bindings
Append to the bindings array:
{
"agentId": "<agentId>",
"match": {
"channel": "feishu",
"accountId": "<agentId>"
}
}Step 5 — Add to tools.agentToAgent.allow
Add "<agentId>" to the allow array under tools.agentToAgent.
Step 6 — Create workspace directory
mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/workspace-<agentId>Step 7 — Restart gateway
launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/ai.openclaw.gatewayStep 8 — Pairing approve (if code provided)
If the user provided a pairingCode:
openclaw pairing approve feishu <pairingCode>If not, remind the user to run this after adding the bot to a group:
openclaw pairing approve feishu <code>After completion
Confirm:
- Which account was added (
default→<agentId>) - Binding: feishu /
<agentId>→ agent<agentId> - Workspace:
~/.openclaw/workspace-<agentId> - Gateway restarted ✓
- Pairing: approved or pending
If pairing is still pending, tell the user to add the bot to the target group first, then run the approve command.
