Feishu: typing indicator keepalive causes repeated push notifications #28660

Problem

When OpenClaw is processing a message on Feishu, the typing indicator keepalive mechanism repeatedly calls addTypingIndicator() every 3 seconds (via createTypingKeepaliveLoop). This causes Feishu to treat each re-add as a new reaction event, triggering a push notification to the user each time.

The user receives multiple identical push notifications for the same message while waiting for a response — the longer the processing time (e.g., during tool calls), the more notifications they receive.

Root Cause

In reply-YQvtZDnf.js / src/channels/typing.ts, createTypingCallbacks sets up a keepalive loop:

const keepaliveLoop = createTypingKeepaliveLoop({
  intervalMs: keepaliveIntervalMs, // default 3000ms
  onTick: fireStart                // calls addTypingIndicator() every 3s
});

Each tick calls addTypingIndicator() which does a fresh messageReaction.create API call, adding a new reaction rather than refreshing the existing one. Feishu fires a push notification for every new reaction added, even if the emoji is the same.

Expected Behavior

The keepalive should not trigger additional push notifications. Ideally:

  • Check if the reaction already exists before re-adding it, OR
  • Use a different keepalive strategy that doesn't involve re-adding the same reaction

Environment

  • Channel: Feishu
  • OpenClaw version: 2026.2.24 (df9a474)
  • Feishu plugin: extensions/feishu

Workaround

User can disable Feishu notifications for reaction events in Feishu Settings → Notifications → disable "Notify me when my message is reacted to".
