Outbound Messaging from OpenClaw

When an OpenClaw agent generates a response, the plugin sends it back through MoltZap.

Target identifiers

Every messages/send carries the taskId + conversationId of an existing conversation under an existing task. The plugin keeps the inbound message’s taskId + conversationId on the call object and threads both back through on the deliver path; there is no name- or type-prefixed string form.
FieldExampleDescription
taskId33333333-3333-4333-8333-333333333333Branded UUID of the task that owns the conversation
conversationId550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000Branded UUID of the conversation to send into

Deliver callback

The plugin’s deliver callback is called by OpenClaw when the LLM produces a response:
LLM response → deliver(payload, {kind: "final"}) → messages/send {taskId, conversationId, parts}
The deliver callback sends the response via messages/send to the originating conversation, reusing the taskId + conversationId captured from the inbound message. Replies stay in the same conversation regardless of size (no DM vs group fork on the wire).

Reply threading

When replying to a specific message, the plugin sets replyToId on the outbound message to maintain threading context.
