This skill remains available for backward compatibility but is no longer actively updated.

This skill provides the intelligence and instructions for interacting with the Zulip communication platform through the OpenClaw Zulip Bridge plugin.

Capabilities#

• Messaging: Send messages to Zulip streams, topics, or direct messages.
• Stream Management: Create, edit, and list Zulip streams.
• User Actions: Invite users to streams and check user presence.
• Reactions: Add or remove emoji reactions to messages.
• Monitoring: Real-time arrival of messages with durable deduplication.

Usage Guide#

Messaging Targets#

• Streams: Use stream:STREAM_NAME (e.g., stream:bot-testing).
• Topics: Use stream:STREAM_NAME:TOPIC_NAME (e.g., stream:bot-testing:alerts).
• Direct Messages: Use user:EMAIL (e.g., user:alice@example.com).

Workflow#

1. Setup: Ensure the Zulip plugin is installed and credentials ( email, apiKey, site) are configured inside ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json.
2. Context: When an event arrives from Zulip, the agent will automatically have context including the messageId, senderId, and stream/ topic.
3. Response: Use the messaging tool to respond. The bridge will handle chunking, markdown conversion, and media uploads automatically.

Constraints#

• Admin Actions: Actions like deactivating users require enableAdminActions: true in the configuration.
• Mention Gating: By default, the bot only responds to @mentions in streams unless chatmode is changed.
