# Claude Code Bridge

> Bridges OpenClaw (QQ, Telegram, WeChat, and other messaging channels) to a persistent Claude Code CLI session running in a background tmux process. Enables starting, stopping, restarting, and monitoring Claude Code sessions directly from any chat interface. Automatically detects session state on every message, routes user input to the active Claude Code session, and handles tool-approval prompts so the user can approve or deny Claude Code actions without leaving their chat app. Ideal for developers who want to control Claude Code from a mobile device or a group chat. Trigger phrases: "start claude code", "open claude code", "cc status", "stop claude code", "restart cc", "启动claude code", "开启claude code", "连接cc", "cc状态", "关闭cc", "退出cc", "重启cc", "/cc start", "/cc stop", "/cc restart", "/cc status".

# Claude Code Bridge

Bridge every incoming message to a live, persistent `claude` CLI process running
in a background tmux session. The user interacts via QQ/Telegram/any channel;
Claude Code responds as if they were typing in a real terminal.

## Session State Detection (CRITICAL — CHECK EVERY TURN)

**At the start of EVERY incoming message**, determine session state:

```bash
~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/cc-bridge/scripts/cc-bridge.sh "<SESSION_ID>" status
```

- `✅ Claude Code 会话运行中` → **CC mode active**, route message to CC
- `⭕ 没有活跃` → **CC mode off**, respond normally
- `⚠️  CC 正在等待审批` → tell user and await their approval choice

Construct `<SESSION_ID>` as `<channel>_<chat_id>` using only `[a-zA-Z0-9_]`.

## Routing Logic

```
Every incoming message:
  1. Run status check
  2. Is it a CC control command?
       "启动cc"    → start
       "关闭cc"    → stop
       "重启cc"    → restart
       "cc状态"    → status
       "/cc peek"  → peek
       "/cc history [N]" → history
  3. Is CC in approval-waiting state?
       YES → parse user's intent (y/n/1/2/3) → approve
  4. Is CC session active?
       YES → forward as send
       NO  → respond normally as OpenClaw agent
```

## Executing Actions

```bash
SCRIPT="$HOME/.openclaw/workspace/skills/cc-bridge/scripts/cc-bridge.sh"

"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" start                    # 启动
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" send '<message>'         # 发送（90s 超时）
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" send '<message>' --long  # 长任务（5min 超时）
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" approve 1               # 审批：选 Yes
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" approve 2               # 审批：选 Allow always
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" approve 3               # 审批：选 No
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" approve esc             # 审批：取消
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" stop                    # 停止
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" restart                 # 重启
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" status                  # 状态
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" peek                    # 原始终端画面
"$SCRIPT" "<ID>" history 200             # 最近 200 行历史
```

**IMPORTANT — message quoting**: Use `tmux send-keys -l` (literal mode) so
special characters (`$`, `!`, `\`) are sent verbatim. The script handles this
internally; just pass the raw message as argument 3.

## CC Slash Commands — Direct Passthrough

CC's own slash commands work by sending them via `send`:

| User says | Forward as |
|-----------|-----------|
| `/plan` | `send '/plan'` |
| `/model sonnet` | `send '/model sonnet'` |
| `/compact` | `send '/compact'` |
| `/help` | `send '/help'` |
| `/cost` | `send '/cost'` |
| `/clear` | `send '/clear'` |
| `/diff` | `send '/diff'` |
| `/fast` | `send '/fast'` |
| `/vim` | `send '/vim'` |
| `/context` | `send '/context'` |
| `/export` | `send '/export'` |
| `/copy` | `send '/copy'` |
| `/rewind` | `send '/rewind'` |
| `/fork` | `send '/fork'` |
| `/permissions` | `send '/permissions'` |
| `/tasks` | `send '/tasks'` |
| `/status` | `send '/status'` |
| `/stats` | `send '/stats'` |
| `/review` | `send '/review'` |
| `/theme` | `send '/theme'` |
| `/sandbox` | `send '/sandbox'` |
| Any `/xxx` command | `send '/xxx'` |

These are NOT OpenClaw commands — forward them verbatim to CC.
All CC slash commands work via passthrough, including ones not listed above.

## Handling CC Approval Prompts

When CC encounters a tool it needs permission to run, it shows a TUI selection
menu (arrow-key navigation, not text input). The `approve` action handles this:

```
CC shows:
  Do you want to proceed?
  ❯ 1. Yes
    2. Yes, allow from this project
    3. No
```

The user's reply should be interpreted:
- "y" / "是" / "好" / "1" / "同意" → `approve 1`
- "2" / "允许" / "一直允许" → `approve 2`
- "n" / "否" / "不" / "3" / "拒绝" → `approve 3`
- "取消" / "cancel" → `approve esc`

## Long Tasks & Streaming

For tasks that take a long time (refactoring, writing large codebases):

1. Detect intent: if the user's message implies a large task (e.g. "重构整个项目",
   "帮我写一个完整的 XXX"), use `--long` flag (5-minute timeout)
2. If the output is empty after timeout, use `peek` to check CC's current state
3. If CC is still working, inform the user: `⏳ CC 仍在处理中，稍后我再检查`
4. Then use `peek` or `history` to get progress updates

## Formatting Replies

1. Prefix CC output with `🤖 **CC →**`
2. Keep code blocks, file paths, and tool output intact
3. If output is empty: reply `⏳ CC 正在处理中...` then try `peek` after 3s
4. If output >3000 chars: show the last 2000 chars, note earlier output available
   via `/cc history`
5. If CC is waiting for approval: clearly show the options to the user

## Error Handling

| Situation | Action |
|-----------|--------|
| `send` returns empty | Wait 3s, run `peek`, relay result |
| Session not found | Inform user, offer to `start` |
| Session crashed | Detect via `status`, offer `restart` |
| CC shows error | Relay error verbatim |
| Timeout on long task | Inform user, suggest `peek` or `history` |
