Chat Channels
OpenClaw can talk to you on any chat app you already use. Each channel connects via the Gateway. Text is supported everywhere; media and reactions vary by channel.
Supported channels
- BlueBubbles — Recommended for iMessage; uses the BlueBubbles macOS server REST API with full feature support (edit, unsend, effects, reactions, group management — edit currently broken on macOS 26 Tahoe).
- Discord — Discord Bot API + Gateway; supports servers, channels, and DMs.
- Feishu — Feishu/Lark bot via WebSocket (plugin, installed separately).
- Google Chat — Google Chat API app via HTTP webhook.
- iMessage (legacy) — Legacy macOS integration via imsg CLI (deprecated, use BlueBubbles for new setups).
- IRC — Classic IRC servers; channels + DMs with pairing/allowlist controls.
- LINE — LINE Messaging API bot (plugin, installed separately).
- Matrix — Matrix protocol (plugin, installed separately).
- Mattermost — Bot API + WebSocket; channels, groups, DMs (plugin, installed separately).
- Microsoft Teams — Bot Framework; enterprise support (plugin, installed separately).
- Nextcloud Talk — Self-hosted chat via Nextcloud Talk (plugin, installed separately).
- Nostr — Decentralized DMs via NIP-04 (plugin, installed separately).
- Signal — signal-cli; privacy-focused.
- Slack — Bolt SDK; workspace apps.
- Synology Chat — Synology NAS Chat via outgoing+incoming webhooks (plugin, installed separately).
- Telegram — Bot API via grammY; supports groups.
- Tlon — Urbit-based messenger (plugin, installed separately).
- Twitch — Twitch chat via IRC connection (plugin, installed separately).
- Voice Call — Telephony via Plivo or Twilio (plugin, installed separately).
- WebChat — Gateway WebChat UI over WebSocket.
- WhatsApp — Most popular; uses Baileys and requires QR pairing.
- Zalo — Zalo Bot API; Vietnam's popular messenger (plugin, installed separately).
- Zalo Personal — Zalo personal account via QR login (plugin, installed separately).
Notes
- Channels can run simultaneously; configure multiple and OpenClaw will route per chat.
- Fastest setup is usually Telegram (simple bot token). WhatsApp requires QR pairing and stores more state on disk.
- Group behavior varies by channel; see Groups.
- DM pairing and allowlists are enforced for safety; see Security.
- Troubleshooting: Channel troubleshooting.
- Model providers are documented separately; see Model Providers.
