fix(tts): use opus format and enable voice bubbles for feishu and whatsapp by smthfoxy · Pull Request #27366 · openclaw/openclaw

smthfoxy · 2026-02-26T09:16:30Z

Problem

TTS voice messages on Feishu and WhatsApp were sent as mp3 file attachments instead of playable audio bubbles, because resolveOutputFormat only selected opus for Telegram, and shouldVoice was only set to true for Telegram.

Both Feishu and WhatsApp support voice-bubble playback and require opus audio—the same behavior as Telegram.

Solution

Extract a VOICE_BUBBLE_CHANNELS set containing telegram, feishu, and whatsapp
resolveOutputFormat: return opus output for all channels in this set
shouldVoice: enable for all channels in this set (not just telegram)

Changes

src/tts/tts.ts: +4 lines, -2 lines
src/tts/tts.test.ts: +21 lines (added feishu and whatsapp test cases)

Testing

All 19 TTS tests pass. Verified on a live Feishu and WhatsApp deployment—voice messages now display as audio players.

Greptile Summary

Unified TTS voice bubble support across Telegram, Feishu, and WhatsApp by extracting a VOICE_BUBBLE_CHANNELS set and updating format/voice logic to check membership. All three channels now correctly use opus audio format and enable voice-bubble playback.

Key changes:

src/tts/tts.ts: extracted VOICE_BUBBLE_CHANNELS constant, updated resolveOutputFormat and shouldVoice to check set membership instead of hardcoded telegram check
extensions/feishu/src/media.ts: added sendAudioFeishu function to bypass SDK (which rejects msg_type: "audio" with error 230055) and call Feishu REST API directly, updated sendMediaFeishu to route opus files through this new function
Comprehensive test coverage added for all three channels

The implementation is sound - both Feishu and WhatsApp are confirmed to support opus audio for voice messages (WhatsApp uses OGG Opus for PTT voice notes per src/web/outbound.ts:61 and src/web/inbound/media.ts:26).

Confidence Score: 5/5

This PR is safe to merge with no concerns
The changes are well-structured, properly tested, and solve a real problem. The implementation correctly unifies voice bubble behavior across three channels that all support opus audio. The Feishu workaround for SDK limitation includes comprehensive error handling, and all changes have corresponding test coverage that validates the expected behavior.
No files require special attention

Changes made:

- src/tts/tts.test.ts: extend output-format expectations to cover Feishu + WhatsApp voice-bubble behavior.
- CHANGELOG.md: add user-facing note for fix(tts): use opus format and enable voice bubbles for feishu and whatsapp #27366.
