description	Create and send interactive cards to Feishu (Lark) with buttons, forms, polls, and rich UI elements. Use when replying to Feishu messages and there is ANY uncertainty - send an interactive card instead of plain text to let users choose via buttons. Automatically handles callbacks via long-polling connection. Use for confirmations, choices, forms, todos, polls, or any scenario requiring user interaction in Feishu.

Feishu Interactive Cards

Core Principle

When replying to Feishu and there is ANY uncertainty: send an interactive card instead of plain text.

Interactive cards let users respond via buttons rather than typing, making interactions faster and clearer.

When to Use

Must use interactive cards:

• User needs to make a choice (yes/no, multiple options)
• Confirmation required before action
• Displaying todos or task lists
• Creating polls or surveys
• Collecting form input
• Any uncertain situation

Plain text is OK:

• Simple notifications (no response needed)
• Pure data display (no interaction)
• Confirmed command results

Example:

• Wrong: "I deleted the file for you" (direct execution)
• Right: Send card "Confirm delete file?" [Confirm] [Cancel]

Quick Start

1. Start Callback Server (Long-Polling Mode)

cd E:\openclaw\workspace\skills\feishu-interactive-cards\scripts
node card-callback-server.js

Features:

• Uses Feishu long-polling (no public IP needed)
• Auto-reconnects
• Sends callbacks to OpenClaw Gateway automatically

2. Send Interactive Card

# Confirmation card
node scripts/send-card.js confirmation "Confirm delete file?" --chat-id oc_xxx

# Todo list
node scripts/send-card.js todo --chat-id oc_xxx

# Poll
node scripts/send-card.js poll "Team activity" --options "Bowling,Movie,Dinner" --chat-id oc_xxx

# Custom card
node scripts/send-card.js custom --template examples/custom-card.json --chat-id oc_xxx

3. Use in Agent

When Agent needs to send Feishu messages:

// Wrong: Send plain text
await message({ 
  action: "send", 
  channel: "feishu", 
  message: "Confirm delete?" 
});

// Right: Send interactive card
await exec({
  command: `node E:\\openclaw\\workspace\\skills\\feishu-interactive-cards\\scripts\\send-card.js confirmation "Confirm delete file test.txt?" --chat-id ${chatId}`
});

Card Templates

See examples/ directory for complete card templates:

• confirmation-card.json - Confirmation dialogs
• todo-card.json - Task lists with checkboxes
• poll-card.json - Polls and surveys
• form-card.json - Forms with input fields

For detailed card design patterns and best practices, see references/card-design-guide.md.

Callback Handling

Callback server automatically sends all card interactions to OpenClaw Gateway. For detailed integration guide, see references/gateway-integration.md.

Quick example:

// Handle confirmation
if (callback.data.action.value.action === "confirm") {
  const file = callback.data.action.value.file;
  
  // ⚠️ SECURITY: Validate and sanitize file path before use
  // Use OpenClaw's built-in file operations instead of shell commands
  const fs = require('fs').promises;
  const path = require('path');
  
  try {
    // Validate file path (prevent directory traversal)
    const safePath = path.resolve(file);
    if (!safePath.startsWith(process.cwd())) {
      throw new Error('Invalid file path');
    }
    
    // Use fs API instead of shell command
    await fs.unlink(safePath);
    
    // Update card
    await updateCard(callback.context.open_message_id, {
      header: { title: "Done", template: "green" },
      elements: [
        { tag: "div", text: { : , :  } }
      ]
    });
  }  (error) {
    
     (callback.., {
      : { : , :  },
      : [
        { : , : { : , :  } }
      ]
    });
  }
}

Best Practices

Card Design

• Clear titles and content
• Obvious button actions
• Use danger type for destructive operations
• Carry complete state in button value to avoid extra queries

Interaction Flow

User request -> Agent decides -> Send card -> User clicks button 
-> Callback server -> Gateway -> Agent handles -> Update card/execute

Error Handling

• Timeout: Send reminder if user doesn't respond
• Duplicate clicks: Built-in deduplication (3s window)
• Failures: Update card to show error message

Performance

• Async processing: Quick response, long tasks in background
• Batch operations: Combine related actions in one card

Configuration

Configure in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  "channels": {
    "feishu": {
      "accounts": {
        "main": {
          "appId": "YOUR_APP_ID",
          "appSecret": "YOUR_APP_SECRET"
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "gateway": {
    "enabled": true,
    "port": 18789,
    "token": "YOUR_GATEWAY_TOKEN"
  }
}

Callback server reads config automatically.

Troubleshooting

Button clicks not working:

• Check callback server is running
• Verify Feishu backend uses "long-polling" mode
• Ensure card.action.trigger event is subscribed

Gateway not receiving callbacks:

• Start Gateway: E:\openclaw\workspace\scripts\gateway.cmd
• Check token in ~/.openclaw\openclaw.json

Card display issues:

• Use provided templates as base
• Validate JSON format
• Check required fields

Security

⚠️ CRITICAL: Never pass user input directly to shell commands!

This skill includes comprehensive security guidelines. Please read references/security-best-practices.md before implementing callback handlers.

Key security principles:

• Always validate and sanitize user input
• Use Node.js built-in APIs instead of shell commands
• Implement proper permission checks
• Prevent command injection vulnerabilities
• Use event_id for deduplication
