Install Feishu Plugin

Execute the following commands in your terminal:

# Set npm registry
npm config set registry https://registry.npmjs.org

# Download plugin installer
curl -o /tmp/feishu-openclaw-plugin-onboard-cli.tgz https://sf3-cn.feishucdn.com/obj/open-platform-opendoc/4d184b1ba733bae2423a89e196a2ef8f_QATOjKH1WN.tgz

# Install plugin
npm install /tmp/feishu-openclaw-plugin-onboard-cli.tgz -g

# Clean up installer
rm /tmp/feishu-openclaw-plugin-onboard-cli.tgz

# Run installation wizard
feishu-plugin-onboard install

During installation:

• If you previously linked a Feishu app, you can choose to use the existing app or create a new one
• If no Feishu app is linked, enter the appId and appSecret created in the previous steps

Start the plugin:

openclaw gateway run

Verify success:

• After running the above command, if you see "started listening to Feishu events" in the logs, the plugin has started successfully
• Run openclaw plugins list, if feishu-openclaw-plugin Status is loaded and feishu Status is disabled, the plugin is successfully enabled

Quick Start

1. Configure openclaw.json

   After installation, edit your OpenClaw configuration file (~/.openclaw/openclaw.json) to enable the feishu channel and add your app credentials.

   Here is a minimal configuration example:

   {
     "channels": {
       "feishu": {
         "enabled": true,
         "appId": "cli_xxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
         "appSecret": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
         "domain": "feishu",
         "connectionMode": "websocket"
       }
     },
     "plugins": {
       "allow": ["feishu-openclaw-plugin"]
     }
   }

   Make sure to replace appId and appSecret with your own app credentials.

2. Run the OpenClaw Gateway

   Save the configuration and start the OpenClaw gateway:

   openclaw gateway run

3. Pair the Bot

   • Send any message to the bot in Feishu, and the system will generate a pairing code (letters + numbers)
   • The pairing code is valid for 5 minutes; if it expires, trigger again
   • Run the following command on the server to complete the binding:

     openclaw pairing approve feishu <pairing_code> --notify

4. Complete Authorization

   Follow the prompts in Feishu to complete authorization, so OpenClaw can perform tasks like reading messages, docs, bitables, and calendars on your behalf.

   If you don't want to authorize now, you can start the conversation directly and enter /feishu auth later to complete batch authorization.

5. Start Chatting

   Your bot is now ready. To verify installation, enter /feishu start in the dialog; if it returns version info, the installation is successful.

   To teach the bot new skills, tell it: "Learn about my new Feishu plugin, list what capabilities it has"

Configuration

The plugin offers several configuration options to tailor its behavior. All settings are located under the channels.feishu key in your openclaw.json.

FAQ

1. Why isn't Windows supported?

   • This is a known issue in the OpenClaw core. You can track its progress at openclaw/openclaw#7631.

2. I see a Cannot find module 'xxx' error on startup.

   • This usually means the plugin's dependencies were not installed correctly. Navigate to the plugin directory at ~/.openclaw/extensions/feishu-openclaw-plugin and run npm install --production to manually install them.

3. The bot reports "insufficient permissions" when trying to read a doc or send a message.

   • Log in to the Feishu/Lark Developer Console and ensure your application has been granted the necessary API permissions. For example, reading a document requires the docx:document:readonly scope, and sending messages requires im:message:send_as_bot permission.

4. How to quickly complete user authorization?

   • Tell the AI: "I want to grant all user permissions" to complete batch authorization.
   • Or enter /feishu auth to complete batch user authorization.

5. How to verify installation success?

   • Enter /feishu start in the dialog; if it returns version info, installation is successful.
   • Enter /feishu doctor to check if configuration is normal.

6. How to update the plugin?

   • Run the following command:

   feishu-plugin-onboard update

   • If you cannot find this command, you need to install the installer first (see installation steps).
