Install

Install the verified ClawLink plugin from ClawHub. After the user confirms, complete the full setup so ClawLink tools are visible in the next OpenClaw chat.

openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
openclaw config set tools.alsoAllow '["clawlink-plugin"]' --strict-json
openclaw gateway restart

Then tell the user: "OpenClaw has been restarted. Send /new as a standalone message to start a fresh chat, then ask for Facebook again."

Quick Start

# List integrations
clawlink_list_integrations

# List Facebook tools
clawlink_list_tools --integration facebook

# Search for a specific tool
clawlink_search_tools --query "post" --integration facebook

Authentication

All Facebook tool calls are authenticated automatically by ClawLink using the user's connected Facebook account.

No API key is required in chat. ClawLink stores the OAuth token securely and injects it into every Facebook Graph API request on the user's behalf.

Getting Connected

1. Install the ClawLink plugin (see Install above).
2. Pair the plugin with clawlink_begin_pairing if it is not configured yet.
3. Open https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=facebook and connect Facebook.
4. Call clawlink_list_integrations to verify the connection is active.

Connection Management

List Connections

clawlink_list_integrations

Response: Returns all connected integrations. Look for facebook in the list.

Verify Connection

clawlink_list_tools --integration facebook

Response: Returns the live tool catalog for Facebook.

Reconnect

If Facebook tools are missing or the connection shows an error:

1. Direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=facebook
2. After they confirm, call clawlink_list_integrations to verify
3. Then call clawlink_list_tools --integration facebook

Discovery Workflow

1. Call clawlink_list_integrations to confirm Facebook is connected.
2. Call clawlink_list_tools --integration facebook to see the live catalog.
3. Treat the returned list as the source of truth. Do not guess or assume what tools exist.
4. If the user describes a capability but the exact tool is unclear, call clawlink_search_tools with a short query and integration facebook.
5. If no Facebook tools appear, direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=facebook.

Execution Workflow

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  READ OPERATIONS (Safe)                                     │
│  list → get → search → describe → call                      │
│                                                             │
│  Example: List posts → Get insights → Show results         │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
                               │
                               ▼
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  WRITE OPERATIONS (Require Confirmation)                    │
│  list → get → describe → preview → confirm → call           │
│                                                             │
│  Example: Describe tool → Preview changes → User approves   │
│           → Execute update                                  │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

1. For unfamiliar tools, ambiguous requests, or any write action, call clawlink_describe_tool first.
2. Use the returned guidance, schema, whenToUse, askBefore, safeDefaults, examples, and followups to shape the call.
3. Prefer read, list, search, and get operations before writes when that reduces ambiguity.
4. For writes or anything marked as requiring confirmation, call clawlink_preview_tool first.
5. Execute with clawlink_call_tool. Pass confirmation only after the preview matches the user's intent.
6. If the tool call fails, report the real error. Do not invent results or restate the failure as a missing capability unless the live catalog supports that conclusion.

Security & Permissions

• Access is scoped to the connected Facebook account's managed Pages and their permissions.
• All write operations require explicit user confirmation. Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the target resource and intended effect with the user.
• Destructive actions (deleting posts, comments) are marked as high-impact and must be confirmed.
• Publishing posts affects the Page's public-facing content; confirm all write operations.
• Messaging operations deliver to real users; confirm before sending.

Notes

• Facebook Graph API uses cursor-based pagination for large result sets.
• CDN-based media URLs (from source field) are time-limited; download promptly if long-term access is needed.
• Rate limits apply to API calls (error codes 4,17, 613); use backoff for high-volume operations.
• The API version is v23.0 (released May 2025); older versions are deprecated.
• Some permissions require Facebook app review before use in production.

Error Handling

Status / Error	Meaning
Tool not found	The tool name does not exist in the current catalog. Verify with clawlink_list_tools --integration facebook.
Missing connection	Facebook is not connected. Direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=facebook.
(#404) Page not found	The Page ID does not exist or is not accessible.
(#200) Permission denied	The app does not have the required permission.
(#190) Token expired	The access token has expired. Reconnect Facebook.

Troubleshooting: Tools Not Visible

1. Check that the ClawLink plugin is installed:

   openclaw plugins list
   

2. If the plugin is installed but tools are missing, tell the user to send /new as a standalone message to reload the catalog.
3. If a fresh chat does not help, run:

   openclaw config set tools.alsoAllow '["clawlink-plugin"]' --strict-json
   openclaw gateway restart
   

4. After restart, tell the user to send /new again and retry.

Troubleshooting: Invalid Tool Call

1. Ensure the integration slug is exactly facebook.
2. Use clawlink_describe_tool to verify parameter names and types before calling.
3. For write operations, always call clawlink_preview_tool first.
