Introduction

# Lark Integration

Connect Lark (Feishu) to OpenClaw for bidirectional messaging with full rich content support.

## Quick Start

```bash # 1. Set credentials echo "FEISHU_APP_ID=cli_xxx" >> ~/.openclaw/workspace/.env mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/secrets echo "your_app_secret" > ~/.openclaw/secrets/feishu_app_secret

# 2. Start bridge cd skills/lark-integration/scripts node bridge-webhook.mjs

# 3. Configure Lark webhook URL in developer console # https://open.larksuite.com → Your App → Event Subscriptions # URL: http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:3000/webhook ```

## Architecture

``` Lark App ──webhook──► Bridge (port 3000) ──WebSocket──► OpenClaw Gateway │ │ ◄────────── Reply ──────────────────┘ ```

## Supported Message Types

| Type | Direction | Format | |------|-----------|--------| | `text` | ↔ Both | Plain text | | `post` | → Receive | Rich text with images, links | | `image` | → Receive | Single image | | Reply | ← Send | Text (cards via feishu-card skill) |

## Platform Detection

The bridge auto-detects platform from URLs: - `*.larksuite.com` → `https://open.larksuite.com` (International) - `*.feishu.cn` → `https://open.feishu.cn` (China)

## Configuration

### Environment Variables

| Variable | Required | Description | |----------|----------|-------------| | `FEISHU_APP_ID` | Yes | App ID from Lark Developer Console | | `FEISHU_APP_SECRET_PATH` | No | Path to secret file (default: `~/.openclaw/secrets/feishu_app_secret`) | | `WEBHOOK_PORT` | No | Webhook listen port (default: 3000) | | `FEISHU_THINKING_THRESHOLD_MS` | No | Delay before "Thinking..." placeholder (default: 2500) | | `FEISHU_ENCRYPT_KEY` | No | Encryption key if enabled in Lark | | `OPENCLAW_AGENT_ID` | No | Agent to route messages to (default: main) |

### Lark App Permissions

Enable these scopes in Lark Developer Console → Permissions & Scopes:

**Messaging:** - `im:message` - Send and receive messages - `im:message:send_as_bot` - Send messages as bot - `im:resource` - Download message resources (images)

**Documents (optional):** - `docx:document:readonly` - Read documents - `wiki:wiki:readonly` - Read wiki spaces - `sheets:spreadsheet:readonly` - Read spreadsheets - `bitable:bitable:readonly` - Read bitables - `drive:drive:readonly` - Access drive files

## Scripts

### bridge-webhook.mjs

Main webhook bridge. Receives Lark events, forwards to OpenClaw, sends replies.

```bash FEISHU_APP_ID=cli_xxx node scripts/bridge-webhook.mjs ```

### setup-service.mjs

Install as systemd service for auto-start:

```bash node scripts/setup-service.mjs # Creates /etc/systemd/system/lark-bridge.service ```

## Image Handling

Images in messages are: 1. Detected from `post` content or `image` message type 2. Downloaded via Lark API using `message_id` and `image_key` 3. Converted to base64 4. Sent to OpenClaw Gateway as `attachments` parameter

```javascript attachments: [{ mimeType: "image/png", content: "<base64>" }] ```

## Group Chat Behavior

In group chats, the bridge responds when: - Bot is @mentioned - Message ends with `?` or `?` - Message contains trigger words: help, please, why, how, what, 帮, 请, 分析, etc. - Message starts with bot name

Otherwise, messages are ignored to avoid noise.

## Reading Documents

Use the `feishu-doc` skill to read Lark documents:

```bash node skills/feishu-doc/index.js fetch "https://xxx.larksuite.com/docx/TOKEN" ```

Supported URL types: - `/docx/` - New documents - `/wiki/` - Wiki pages (auto-resolves to underlying doc) - `/sheets/` - Spreadsheets - `/base/` - Bitables (multi-dimensional tables)

**Permission Note:** Documents must be shared with the bot, or the bot must have tenant-wide read permission.

## Troubleshooting

### "forBidden" error when reading docs - Document not shared with bot → Add bot as collaborator - Missing scope → Enable `docx:document:readonly` in console

### No messages received - Check webhook URL is accessible: `curl http://YOUR_IP:3000/health` - Verify webhook in Lark console shows "Verified" - Check bridge logs: `journalctl -u lark-bridge -f`

### "must be string" error - Old bridge version → Update to use `attachments` for images

### Images not received - Missing `im:resource` scope → Enable in Lark console - Token expired → Bridge auto-refreshes, restart if stuck

## Service Management

```bash # Check status systemctl status lark-bridge

# View logs journalctl -u lark-bridge -f

# Restart systemctl restart lark-bridge ```
