# OpenClaw Integration for Home Assistant
|
|
|
|
A native Home Assistant integration for communicating with the
|
|
[OpenClaw Assistant](https://github.com/techartdev/OpenClawHomeAssistant) addon.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Chat card** — Lovelace card with streaming AI responses, file attachments, and voice mode
|
|
- **Sensors** — `openclaw_status`, `openclaw_model`, `openclaw_session_count`, `openclaw_last_activity`, `openclaw_connected`
|
|
- **Conversation agent** — appears in Assist & Voice PE as a native agent
|
|
- **Service calls** — `openclaw.send_message` for automations
|
|
- **Events** — `openclaw_message_received` for triggering automations from AI responses
|
|
- **Zero-config** — auto-discovers the addon via Supervisor API, no tokens or URLs to enter
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### HACS (recommended)
|
|
|
|
1. Open HACS → Integrations → **+ Explore & Download Repositories**
|
|
2. Search for **OpenClaw** and install
|
|
3. Restart Home Assistant
|
|
4. Go to Settings → Devices & Services → **Add Integration → OpenClaw**
|
|
|
|
### Manual
|
|
|
|
1. Copy `custom_components/openclaw/` into your HA `config/custom_components/` directory
|
|
2. Copy `www/openclaw-chat-card.js` into `config/www/`
|
|
3. Restart Home Assistant
|
|
4. Add the integration via Settings → Devices & Services
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
The **OpenClaw Assistant** addon must be installed and running.
|
|
The integration will auto-detect it — no manual configuration needed.
|
|
|
|
## Exposed entities (important)
|
|
|
|
OpenClaw uses Home Assistant's native **Assist entity exposure** controls.
|
|
Only entities exposed to Assist are included in the context sent to OpenClaw.
|
|
|
|
Configure this in Home Assistant:
|
|
|
|
1. Go to **Settings → Voice assistants**
|
|
2. Open the **Expose** tab
|
|
3. Select which entities are exposed to **Assist**
|
|
|
|
## Chat Card
|
|
|
|
The chat card is registered automatically when the integration loads — no
|
|
manual resource configuration needed. Just add it to any dashboard:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
type: custom:openclaw-chat-card
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Services
|
|
|
|
### `openclaw.send_message`
|
|
|
|
Send a message to OpenClaw from an automation or script.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
service: openclaw.send_message
|
|
data:
|
|
message: "What's the weather like today?"
|
|
session_id: "optional-session-id"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `openclaw.clear_history`
|

|
```
|
|
|
|
## Events
|
|
|
|
### `openclaw_message_received`
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|

|
|
- platform: event
|
|
event_type: openclaw_message_received
|
