#Deploy the OpenClaw Plugin

Connect the OpenClaw plugin to Cored as an enterprise bot so organization members can start conversations with it from the Cored client.

#Step 1: Create an app

1. Sign in to Cored Admin Console and open Workplace > App Management.
2. Click New App in the upper-right corner.

#Step 2: Enter app information

Complete these fields in the Create Enterprise App dialog:

Click OK to create the app.

#Step 3: Open the app details

Find OpenClaw in the app list and click Details.

#Step 4: Enable the bot capability

1. On the App Details page, scroll to App Capabilities. The Bot capability is disabled by default.
2. Click Edit at the bottom of the page.

3. Turn on Bot, then click Save.

#Step 5: Copy the app credentials

Copy the App ID and App Secret from App Credentials. You will use both values when configuring the OpenClaw channel.

#Step 6: Install and configure the OpenClaw plugin

#Install the plugin

Open a terminal on the OpenClaw host and run:

openclaw plugins install @cored-im/openclaw-plugin

#Configure the channel

Replace each placeholder, then run the command:

openclaw channels add --channel cored \
  --app-token <APP_ID> \
  --token <APP_SECRET> \
  --url <BACKEND_URL>

#Manage multiple accounts (optional)

#Add an account

To connect another Cored bot, add --account and assign the account a unique name:

openclaw channels add --channel cored \
  --account bot2 \
  --app-token <ANOTHER_APP_ID> \
  --token <ANOTHER_APP_SECRET> \
  --url <BACKEND_URL>

The --account value identifies the account in OpenClaw. The first account is named default; additional accounts use the name you provide, such as bot2 or sales-bot.

#Disable an account

To disable an account without deleting its configuration, run:

openclaw channels remove --channel cored --account <ACCOUNT_ID>

To enable it again, edit ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json and set "enabled": true for the account, or remove the "enabled" field.

#Remove an account

To permanently delete an account and its configuration, run:

openclaw channels remove --channel cored --account <ACCOUNT_ID> --delete

#Restart the gateway

Restart the gateway to load the channel configuration:

openclaw gateway restart

#Advanced configuration

To change encryption or request timeout settings, edit ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  "channels": {
    "cored": {
      "accounts": {
        "default": {
          "appId": "your_app_id",
          "appSecret": "your_app_secret",
          "backendUrl": "http://192.168.10.10:21000",
          "enableEncryption": true,
          "requestTimeout": 30000
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

#Step 7: Verify the bot

Open a Cored client and search for OpenClaw. Select the bot under Contacts, send a test message, and confirm that it responds.

The OpenClaw bot is now available to organization members who can access the application.
