OpenClaw Message CLI Skill
Use this skill when the task is specifically about sending a message with the OpenClaw CLI.
Prefer the built-in messaging tool when available. Use this skill only when the user explicitly asks for CLI usage, shell commands, scripting, or automation around openclaw message send.
Command Pattern
Use:
openclaw message send --channel <channel> --target <target> --message "..."Examples
openclaw message send --channel whatsapp --target <target> --message "hi"
openclaw message send --channel telegram --target <target> --message "hi"Checks
- verify the requested channel exists before sending
- verify the target format matches the selected channel
- quote message text safely, especially when it contains shell-sensitive characters
Scope
Use this skill for direct outbound client delivery with the OpenClaw CLI. Do not use it for normal agent replies inside the current session.
