Use OpenClaw Directly in WeChat: A Step‑by‑Step Guide

Step 1: Install WorkBuddy

Download the WorkBuddy client by clicking the button explicitly labeled “WorkBuddy”. Do not use the top‑right download link, which provides CodeBuddy with different functionality. During installation accept the default settings and, on the “Additional tasks” screen, select all tasks.

Step 2: Install and Log In

Run the installer; the default options are sufficient. In the "Additional tasks" step, keep all options selected so that a right‑click context‑menu entry for opening files with WorkBuddy is created.

After installation launch WorkBuddy. Click the “Login” button; a browser window opens for account selection. Choose your account and confirm the login success message.

Step 3: Configure WeChat Integration

In WorkBuddy, click the avatar in the top‑right corner to open “Claw Settings”. Locate the entry “WeChat Customer Service Integration” in the integration list and click the adjacent “Configure” button.

After clicking “Configure”, WorkBuddy creates a temporary customer‑service session for binding; the button briefly shows “Binding…”. This process takes only a few seconds.

When binding succeeds, your WeChat avatar and nickname appear, and the status changes to “Bound”. You can later unbind and re‑bind a different account if needed.

Step 4: Start Chatting in WeChat

All configuration is now complete. Open the WeChat conversation associated with the bound account and send a message to the chatbot (referred to as the “little lobster”).

Now you can interact with OpenClaw directly inside WeChat, without opening a computer or a separate app.
