Environment
- OpenClaw version:
2026.3.23-2
- OS: macOS
- Install method: global
openclaw CLI
- Plugin package:
@tencent-weixin/openclaw-weixin@latest
- npm package version resolved:
2.0.1
Problem
I tried to install the Weixin plugin according to the README/manual install instructions, but installation failed.
The README says that 2.0.x should support OpenClaw >= 2026.3.22, so this version combination appears to be within the documented compatibility range.
Command Used
openclaw plugins install @tencent-weixin/openclaw-weixin@latest
I also tried the one-click installer before that:
npx -y @tencent-weixin/openclaw-weixin-cli@latest install
That path also failed and eventually pointed me back to manual openclaw plugins install.

npm install failed:
Also not a valid hook pack: Error: package.json missing openclaw.hooks
Additional Notes
openclaw plugins doctor reports no plugin system issues after the failed install.~/.openclaw/extensions remains empty after failure, so this looks like a clean install failure rather than a partial install.- The package README currently says manual install should be:
openclaw plugins install "@tencent-weixin/openclaw-weixin"
but that exact path still fails for me.
Expected Behavior
The plugin should install successfully using the documented command, or the README should be updated if the install path/package structure has changed.
Questions
- Is
@tencent-weixin/openclaw-weixin@2.0.1 currently installable on OpenClaw 2026.3.23-2?
- Is there a newer recommended package or migration path, for example via
@openclaw-china/channels?
- Is the published package missing required metadata such as
openclaw.hooks, or is openclaw plugins install no longer the correct install method for this plugin?
