Zalo personal plugin

Zalo Personal support for OpenClaw via a plugin, using native zca-js to automate a normal Zalo user account.

WARNING

Unofficial automation may lead to account suspension or ban. Use at your own risk.

Naming

Channel id is zalouser to make it explicit this automates a personal Zalo user account (unofficial). We keep zalo reserved for a potential future official Zalo API integration.

Where it runs

This plugin runs inside the Gateway process.

If you use a remote Gateway, install/configure it on the machine running the Gateway, then restart the Gateway.

No external zca/openzca CLI binary is required.

Install

Option A: install from npm

openclaw plugins install @openclaw/zalouser

Use the bare package to follow the current official release tag. Pin an exact version only when you need a reproducible install.

Restart the Gateway afterwards.

Option B: install from a local folder (dev)

PLUGIN_SRC=./path/to/local/zalouser-plugin
openclaw plugins install "$PLUGIN_SRC"
cd "$PLUGIN_SRC" && pnpm install

Restart the Gateway afterwards.
