Vendor OpenClaw source as Adolf fork baseline
Adolf is a fork/vendored clone of github.com/openclaw/openclaw (v2026.6.11),
free to diverge. Tree copied sans upstream .git; upstream remote added for
future syncs. Node pinned to 24 (.nvmrc); engines already require >=22.19.
Preserves docs/ARCHITECTURE.md.

# `openclaw directory`
Directory lookups for channels that support them: contacts/peers, groups, and "me" (self).
Results are meant to be pasted into other commands, especially `openclaw message send --target ...`.
## Common flags
- `--channel <name>`: channel id/alias (required when multiple channels are configured; auto-selected when only one is configured)
- `--account <id>`: account id (default: channel default)
- `--json`: output JSON
Default (non-JSON) output is `id` (and sometimes `name`) separated by a tab.
## Notes
- For many channels, results are config-backed (allowlists / configured groups) rather than a live provider directory.
- An already-installed channel plugin can lack directory support. In that case the command reports the unsupported operation; it does not try to reinstall or upgrade the plugin to add support.
## Using results with `message send`
```bash
openclaw directory peers list --channel slack --query "U0"
openclaw message send --channel slack --target user:U012ABCDEF --message "hello"
```
## ID formats by channel
| Channel | Target id format |
| ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| WhatsApp | `+15551234567` (DM), `1234567890-1234567890@g.us` (group), `120363123456789@newsletter` (Channel/Newsletter, outbound only) |
| Signal | Configured aliases resolve to E.164/UUID DM targets or `group:<id>` group targets |
| Telegram | `@username` or numeric chat id; groups use 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`) |
## Self ("me")
```bash
openclaw directory self --channel zalouser
```
## Peers (contacts/users)
```bash
openclaw directory peers list --channel zalouser
openclaw directory peers list --channel zalouser --query "name"
openclaw directory peers list --channel zalouser --limit 50
```
## Groups
```bash
openclaw directory groups list --channel zalouser
openclaw directory groups list --channel zalouser --query "work"
openclaw directory groups members --channel zalouser --group-id <id>
```
