clawdia directory

Directory lookups for channels that support it (contacts/peers, groups, and “me”).

Common flags

  • --channel <name>: channel id/alias (required when multiple channels are configured; auto when only one is configured)
  • --account <id>: account id (default: channel default)
  • --json: output JSON

Notes

  • directory is meant to help you find IDs you can paste into other commands (especially clawdia message send --target ...).
  • For many channels, results are config-backed (allowlists / configured groups) rather than a live provider directory.
  • Default output is id (and sometimes name) separated by a tab; use --json for scripting.

Using results with message send

clawdia directory peers list --channel slack --query "U0"
clawdia message send --channel slack --target user:U012ABCDEF --message "hello"

ID formats (by channel)

  • WhatsApp: +15551234567 (DM), [email protected] (group)
  • Telegram: @username or numeric chat id; groups are numeric ids
  • Slack: user:U… and channel:C…
  • Discord: user:<id> and channel:<id>
  • Matrix (plugin): user:@user:server, room:!roomId:server, or #alias:server
  • Microsoft Teams (plugin): user:<id> and conversation:<id>
  • Zalo (plugin): user id (Bot API)
  • Zalo Personal / zalouser (plugin): thread id (DM/group) from zca (me, friend list, group list)
