# Feishu / Lark Setup
Hermes Agent integrates with Feishu and Lark as a full-featured bot. Once connected, you can chat with the agent in direct messages or group chats, receive cron job results in a home chat, and send text, images, audio, and file attachments through the normal gateway flow.
The integration supports both connection modes:
- `websocket` — recommended; Hermes opens the outbound connection and you do not need a public webhook endpoint
- `webhook` — useful when you want Feishu/Lark to push events into your gateway over HTTP
## How Hermes Behaves
| Context | Behavior |
|---------|----------|
| Direct messages | Hermes responds to every message. |
| Group chats | Hermes responds when the bot is addressed in the chat. |
| Shared group chats | By default, session history is isolated per user inside a shared chat. |
This shared-chat behavior is controlled by `config.yaml`:
```yaml
group_sessions_per_user: true
```
Set it to `false` only if you explicitly want one shared conversation per chat.
## Step 1: Create a Feishu / Lark App
1. Open the Feishu or Lark developer console:
- Feishu: [https://open.feishu.cn/](https://open.feishu.cn/)
- Lark: [https://open.larksuite.com/](https://open.larksuite.com/)
2. Create a new app.
3. In **Credentials & Basic Info**, copy the **App ID** and **App Secret**.
4. Enable the **Bot** capability for the app.
:::warning
Keep the App Secret private. Anyone with it can impersonate your app.

## Step 2: Choose a Connection Mode
### Recommended: WebSocket mode
Use WebSocket mode when Hermes runs on your laptop, workstation, or a private server. No public URL is required.
```bash
FEISHU_CONNECTION_MODE=websocket
```
### Optional: Webhook mode
Use webhook mode only when you already run Hermes behind a reachable HTTP endpoint.
```bash
FEISHU_CONNECTION_MODE=webhook
```
In webhook mode, Hermes serves a Feishu endpoint at:
```text
/feishu/webhook
```
## Step 3: Configure Hermes
### Option A: Interactive Setup
```bash
hermes gateway setup
```
Select **Feishu / Lark** and fill in the prompts.
### Option B: Manual Configuration
Add the following to `~/.hermes/.env`:
```bash
FEISHU_APP_ID=cli_xxx
FEISHU_APP_SECRET=secret_xxx
FEISHU_DOMAIN=feishu
FEISHU_CONNECTION_MODE=websocket
# Optional but strongly recommended
FEISHU_ALLOWED_USERS=ou_xxx,ou_yyy
FEISHU_HOME_CHANNEL=oc_xxx
```
`FEISHU_DOMAIN` accepts:
- `feishu` for Feishu China
- `lark` for Lark international
## Step 4: Start the Gateway
```bash
hermes gateway
```
Then message the bot from Feishu/Lark to confirm that the connection is live.
## Home Chat
Use `/set-home` in a Feishu/Lark chat to mark it as the home channel for cron job results and cross-platform notifications.
You can also preconfigure it:
```bash
FEISHU_HOME_CHANNEL=oc_xxx
```
## Security
For production use, set an allowlist:
```bash
FEISHU_ALLOWED_USERS=ou_xxx,ou_yyy
```
If you leave the allowlist empty, anyone who can reach the bot may be able to use it.
## Toolset
Feishu / Lark uses the `hermes-feishu` platform preset, which includes the same core tools as Telegram and other gateway-based messaging platforms.
