No longer developed or maintained. The last release targets OpenClaw builds from early 2026 and drifts further out of compatibility with every release. Do not start new work against it. Nothing is deleted — the code, the history, and the original README with its full command reference all stay here.
Two things to do instead. Both are good; the first is the author's own.
Your coding agent runs on your laptop. You drive it from your phone.
This plugin proved the idea worked. PwrAgent is the whole thing — a desktop app instead of a plugin, six messengers instead of two, four agent harnesses, and automations this never had. Free, MIT-licensed, running entirely on your own machine.

- Six messaging platforms — Telegram, Discord, Slack, Mattermost, LINE, and Feishu / Lark. This plugin did two. Pair a bot once with a one-time code; no IDs to look up, no JSON to paste.
- Four agent harnesses — Codex, Grok Build, Kimi, and Qwen. It uses the install and the subscription you already have; PwrAgent holds no model key of its own.
- Automations — messaging triggers with filters, so a matching message starts an agent run on its own. Ephemeral agent history from those runs is carried into the next invocation, so a sequence of triggered runs accumulates context instead of starting cold each time. There was nothing like this here.
- Manager Agents — an agent that can query the status and output of the agents your triggers started. Point the triggers at a production alert feed, let them analyse each alert as it lands, then ask a manager agent "are we having a problem?" and get an answer grounded in what those runs found.
- No compatibility treadmill. Half the original README is a matrix of which plugin version works with which OpenClaw build. A desktop app has no such matrix.
Setup is the installer plus Settings → Messaging → your platform.

PwrAgent is by the same author as this plugin, so treat the above as the interested recommendation it is.
A genuinely reasonable choice, and the better one if OpenClaw is already where you work. OpenClaw has features for coding workflows of its own these days — see the current OpenClaw documentation for what ships today.
An exploration, built when the question was still open: could you actually drive a coding agent from a chat app? Not a bot that writes code snippets — real threads, resumed from Telegram or Discord, sharing state with Codex Desktop and the Codex TUI on your own machine, with plan mode, reviews, model switching, and approvals all working from your phone.
It answered the question: yes, and it is genuinely good. That answer is why the work continued.
This plugin only existed because OpenClaw was a pleasure to build on and the OpenClaw team were great to work with — responsive on issues, willing to move plugin interfaces to make this possible, and generous with review. Several of the changes this plugin needed landed upstream in OpenClaw itself. That is exactly how it should go, and it is why this repository can be retired without any of the work being lost.
