Feishu Channel Integration for Nanoclaw​

Add Feishu (Lark) as a channel. Uses WebSocket long connection — no public URL or ngrok needed. Works alongside WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, or as a standalone...

Add Feishu Channel

This skill adds Feishu (飞书/Lark) support to NanoClaw using the skills engine for deterministic code changes, then walks through interactive setup.

Phase 1: Pre-flight

Check if already applied

Read .nanoclaw/state.yaml. If feishu is in applied_skills, skip to Phase 3 (Setup). The code changes are already in place.

Ask the user

Use AskUserQuestion to collect configuration:

AskUserQuestion: Do you have a Feishu (Lark) app already created, or do you need to create one?

If they have one, ask for the App ID and App Secret. If not, walk them through creation in Phase 3.

Phase 2: Apply Code Changes

Run the skills engine to apply this skill's code package. The package files are in this directory alongside this SKILL.md.

Initialize skills system (if needed)

If .nanoclaw/ directory doesn't exist yet:

npx tsx scripts/apply-skill.ts --init

Apply the skill

npx tsx scripts/apply-skill.ts .claude/skills/add-feishu

This deterministically:

• Adds src/channels/feishu.ts (FeishuChannel class with self-registration via registerChannel)
• Adds src/channels/feishu.test.ts (unit tests)
• Appends import './feishu.js' to the channel barrel file src/channels/index.ts
• Installs the @larksuiteoapi/node-sdk npm dependency
• Updates .env.example with FEISHU_APP_ID and FEISHU_APP_SECRET
• Records the application in .nanoclaw/state.yaml

If the apply reports merge conflicts, read the intent file:

• modify/src/channels/index.ts.intent.md — what changed and invariants

Validate code changes

npm test
npm run build

All tests must pass (including the new feishu tests) and build must be clean before proceeding.

Phase 3: Setup

Create Feishu App (if needed)

If the user doesn't have an app, tell them:

I need you to create a Feishu app:

1. Go to Feishu Open Platform (or Lark Open Platform for international)
2. Click Create App → Custom App
3. Fill in app name and description (e.g., "NanoClaw Assistant")
4. Go to Credentials & Basic Info — copy the App ID and App Secret
5. Go to Event Subscriptions → Add Events → search and add:
   • im.message.receive_v1 (Receive messages — v2.0)
6. Go to Permissions & Scopes → add the following permissions:
   • im:message (Send & receive messages)
   • im:message:send_as_bot (Send messages as bot)
   • im:chat (Read chat info)
   • im:chat.members:read (Read chat members)
7. Go to Bot tab → enable the bot feature
8. Click Publish / Apply for Release

Note: For enterprise use, your IT admin may need to approve the app.

Wait for the user to provide the App ID (format: cli_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) and App Secret.

Configure environment

Add to .env:

FEISHU_APP_ID=cli_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
FEISHU_APP_SECRET=your_app_secret_here

Channels auto-enable when their credentials are present — no extra configuration needed.

Sync to container environment:

mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env

The container reads environment from data/env/env, not .env directly.

Build and restart

npm run build
launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw  # macOS
# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw

Phase 4: Registration

Get Chat ID

Tell the user:

To register a Feishu chat with NanoClaw, I need the chat's ID:

For a direct (p2p) chat:

1. Add the bot to your Feishu contacts
2. Open a direct message to the bot
3. Send any message — NanoClaw will log the JID as fs:p2p:<your_open_id>
4. Check logs/nanoclaw.log for: Message from unregistered Feishu chat

For a group chat:

1. Add the bot to the group: Group Settings → Members → Add Bot
2. Send any message in the group (or @mention the bot)
3. NanoClaw will log the JID as fs:oc_<chat_id>
4. Check logs/nanoclaw.log for: Message from unregistered Feishu chat

Tell user to check the log:

tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log | grep "unregistered Feishu"

Wait for the user to provide the JID (format: fs:oc_xxxxx or fs:p2p:ou_xxxxx).

Register the chat

For a main chat (responds to all messages):

registerGroup("fs:<chat-id>", {
  name: "<chat-name>",
  folder: "feishu_main",
  trigger: `@${ASSISTANT_NAME}`,
  added_at: new Date().toISOString(),
  requiresTrigger: false,
  isMain: true,
});

For additional chats (trigger-based, responds only when @mentioned or triggered):

registerGroup("fs:<chat-id>", {
  name: "<chat-name>",
  folder: "feishu_<group-name>",
  trigger: `@${ASSISTANT_NAME}`,
  added_at: new Date().toISOString(),
  requiresTrigger: true,
});

Phase 5: Verify

Test the connection

Tell the user:

Send a message to your registered Feishu chat:

• For main chat: Any message works
• For non-main: @mention the bot or include a question/request keyword

The bot should respond within a few seconds.

Check logs if needed

tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log

Troubleshooting

Bot not receiving messages

Check:

1. im.message.receive_v1 event is added in the app's Event Subscriptions
2. App is published / enabled (enterprise apps need admin approval)
3. For groups: the bot is added as a member of the group
4. FEISHU_APP_ID and FEISHU_APP_SECRET are set in .env AND synced to data/env/env
5. Service is running: launchctl list | grep nanoclaw (macOS) or systemctl --user status nanoclaw (Linux)

Bot not responding in groups

By default, NanoClaw only responds in groups when:

• The bot is @mentioned
• The message contains a request keyword (帮, 请, 分析, etc.)
• The message ends with ? or ？

To make the bot respond to all messages in a group, register it with requiresTrigger: false.

"Message from unregistered Feishu chat" in logs

This is normal — it means the bot is receiving messages, but the chat isn't registered yet. Follow Phase 4 to register.

Finding the JID

If the log message is hard to find:

sqlite3 store/messages.db "SELECT DISTINCT chat_jid FROM chats WHERE channel = 'feishu'"

App Secret security

The App Secret is sensitive. Store it only in .env and data/env/env. Do NOT commit these files to version control.

JID Format Reference

Chat type	JID format	Example
Group chat	fs:oc_<id>	fs:oc_4e359893776d45f7cd05d40e3ee10f55
Direct (p2p)	fs:p2p:<open_id>	fs:p2p:ou_7a66d6bd1baa3e6e3d7b3df9a8c90000

After Setup

If running npm run dev while the service is active:

# macOS:
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
npm run dev
# When done testing:
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
# Linux:
# systemctl --user stop nanoclaw
# npm run dev
# systemctl --user start nanoclaw

Removal

To remove Feishu integration:

1. Delete src/channels/feishu.ts and src/channels/feishu.test.ts
2. Remove import './feishu.js' from src/channels/index.ts
3. Remove FEISHU_APP_ID and FEISHU_APP_SECRET from .env
4. Remove Feishu registrations from SQLite: sqlite3 store/messages.db "DELETE FROM registered_groups WHERE jid LIKE 'fs:%'"
5. Uninstall: npm uninstall @larksuiteoapi/node-sdk
6. Rebuild: npm run build && launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw (macOS) or npm run build && systemctl --user restart nanoclaw (Linux)
