openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix Feature: expose sendMedia as an agent tool for Feishu (and other channels) [1 participants]

TL;DR

Exposing a send_media tool or extending the existing feishu_chat tool can significantly reduce the time it takes for an agent to send images in Feishu.

Guidance

• Investigate the feasibility of exposing the uploadImageFeishu(), sendImageFeishu(), and sendMediaFeishu() functions as agent tools to bypass the CLI process.
• Consider the security implications of allowing agents to send media directly through the gateway.
• Evaluate the potential performance benefits of reducing the send time from ~15s to <1s and its impact on agent behavior.
• Review the proposed send_media tool call example to ensure it aligns with the existing plugin SDK and agent tool architecture.

Example

{
  "tool": "send_media",
  "params": {
    "to": "user:ou_xxx",
    "channel": "feishu",
    "media": "/path/to/image.gif"
  }
}

This example illustrates the proposed tool call, but its implementation details may vary depending on the specific requirements and constraints of the OpenClaw system.

Notes

The success of this proposal depends on the ability to integrate the send_media tool with the existing Feishu plugin and agent tool infrastructure. Additionally, the potential impact on system performance and security must be carefully evaluated.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Expose a send_media tool or extend the existing feishu_chat tool to reduce the friction associated with sending images in Feishu, as this is likely to have a significant impact on agent behavior and overall system usability.
