Summary
Enable Feishu plugin to send audio messages as msg_type: "audio" instead of "file" for better UX (voice message bubbles vs file attachments)
Problem to solve
When using TTS (e.g., sag skill with ElevenLabs) to generate audio and send via Feishu, the audio is sent as msg_type: "file", which displays as a downloadable file attachment. Users must click to download/play. Feishu API supports msg_type: "audio" for native voice message bubbles that can be played directly in chat, but OpenClaw Feishu plugin doesn't implement this.
Proposed solution
Add audio message type support in extensions/feishu/src/send.ts and extensions/feishu/src/media.ts. Implement sendAudioFeishu() function similar to sendFileFeishu(). Support msg_type: "audio" with content: { "file_key": "file_v2_xxx" } format per Feishu API docs.
Alternatives considered
No response
Impact
Affected: All Feishu users using TTS/voice features
Severity: Medium (UX issue, not blocking)
Frequency: Every time audio is sent
Consequence: Poor UX - users see file attachments instead of native voice messages, extra clicks required to play audio
Evidence/examples
Feishu API documentation: https://open.feishu.cn/document/server-docs/im-v1/message/create
Audio message format: { "msg_type": "audio", "content": { "file_key": "file_v2_xxx" } }
Current workaround: Using file type, but UX is suboptimal.
Additional information
Environment: OpenClaw 2026.3.2, Windows. Happy to test or contribute if needed.
