Agent WeChat: OpenClaw in your existing WeChat chats and groups

I built Agent WeChat, an open-source WeChat client with an OpenClaw plugin. The plugin runs a native client that connects directly to WeChat’s servers, and you can connect a separate desktop app to it. You and your agent can use the same WeChat account while you keep using your phone. I wanted an agent that could participate in the conversations I already have, while I could continue reading and replying myself. That means giving it access to selected DMs and groups, rather than only having a separate conversation with a bot. Tencent’s official plugin provides an iLink bot channel and currently advertises direct-chat support. Agent WeChat connects your regular WeChat account, so OpenClaw can participate in that account’s existing conversations. Its replies appear as the connected account. DMs and group chats are supported and require configuration. You choose the permitted contacts and groups, and whether group replies require an @mention of your account. The client supports text, images, videos, files, and native voice notes. What your agent can understand or generate depends on its configured models and tools. There’s also a wx CLI and HTTP API for accessing messages and media or building your own workflows. It communicates directly with WeChat without running or automating the official desktop executable. To get started, install the OpenClaw extension, approve login from WeChat on your phone, and configure conversation access. You can then connect the Agent WeChat desktop app to the same client. The client runs on your machine or server. Allowed messages and attachments are passed to your OpenClaw setup and its configured model providers. No hosted Agent WeChat service is required. The original project code is MIT-licensed. Setup instructions, compatibility notes, screenshots, and a video demo are in the GitHub repository. I’d appreciate feedback on how you’d want to control an agent participating through your WeChat account.
