OpenClaw Tesla (tescmd) โ€” Setup Guide

This plugin connects Tesla vehicles to the OpenClaw Gateway via the tescmd node. Once installed and paired, the plugin automatically registers all tools, commands, slash commands, and telemetry event types. This document covers installation and setup only. Runtime tool usage, workflows, and error handling are provided by the tescmd skill (call tescmd_help for the full reference). What you get: 39 agent-callable tools 14 slash commands Real-time telemetry streaming Supercharger discovery (10,000+ locations via supercharge.info) CLI fallback when node is disconnected Repositories: Plugin: https://github.com/oceanswave/openclaw-tescmd tescmd node (Python CLI): https://github.com/oceanswave/tescmd

Architecture

Agent (you) โ†“ tool calls OpenClaw Gateway โ†“ node.invoke.request openclaw-tescmd Plugin โ†“ WebSocket dispatch tescmd Node (Python) โ”œโ”€ Tesla Fleet API (REST) โ”œโ”€ Vehicle Command Protocol (VCSEC โ€” signed commands) โ””โ”€ Fleet Telemetry Stream (WebSocket) โ†“ Tesla Vehicle The plugin is the Gateway-side counterpart to the tescmd node. It defines tool schemas and routes invocations. The tescmd node handles all direct communication with Tesla.

Step 1: Check Prerequisites

Before starting, verify the required tools are installed and authenticated. Required: git git --version If missing, install it: macOS: xcode-select --install Linux: sudo apt install git or sudo dnf install git Required: GitHub CLI (gh) gh --version gh auth status If gh is not installed: macOS: brew install gh Linux: see https://github.com/cli/cli/blob/trunk/docs/install_linux.md If not logged in: gh auth login Tell the user: "Please complete the GitHub CLI login in your terminal. Select your preferences when prompted and finish the browser-based auth flow." Wait for the user to confirm they have completed the login before continuing. Required: Python 3.11+ python3 --version Must be 3.11 or higher. If not: macOS: brew install python@3.12 Linux: sudo apt install python3.12 or use pyenv Recommended: Tailscale Tailscale provides a public HTTPS endpoint for Tesla Fleet Telemetry streaming with zero infrastructure setup. tailscale version tailscale status If not installed: macOS: brew install tailscale or download from https://tailscale.com/download Linux: curl -fsSL https://tailscale.com/install.sh | sh If not logged in: sudo tailscale up Tell the user: "Please complete the Tailscale login in your browser if prompted." Wait for the user to confirm before continuing.

Step 2: Install the tescmd OpenClaw Plugin

Standard install: openclaw plugins install @oceanswave/openclaw-tescmd Verify installation: openclaw plugins list You should see the plugin listed with version 0.9.0 (or later). Plugin management commands: CommandPurposeopenclaw plugins listList installed pluginsopenclaw plugins info openclaw-tescmdPlugin detailsopenclaw plugins doctorCheck plugin healthopenclaw plugins update openclaw-tescmdUpdate to latestopenclaw plugins enable openclaw-tescmdEnable the pluginopenclaw plugins disable openclaw-tescmdDisable without uninstalling

Step 3: Install the tescmd CLI

pip install tescmd Verify: tescmd --version

Step 4: Run tescmd Setup

The tescmd setup wizard is interactive and requires the user to make choices and complete steps in their terminal and browser. You cannot complete this step autonomously. tescmd setup Tell the user: "I've started the tescmd setup wizard. This is an interactive process that will walk you through:" Creating a Tesla Developer application Generating your EC key pair Hosting your public key (via GitHub Pages or Tailscale Funnel) Registering with the Tesla Fleet API Completing OAuth2 login in your browser Pairing the key with your vehicle (requires physical presence at the vehicle) "Please follow the prompts in your terminal and let me know when setup is complete." Wait for the user to confirm setup is finished before proceeding. Verify Setup After the user confirms, check auth status: tescmd auth status This should show a valid token. If it shows expired or missing, the user needs to re-run: tescmd auth login

Step 5: Identify the Vehicle

List vehicles on the account to get the VIN: tescmd vehicle list Note the VIN โ€” it is needed for the serve command.

Step 6: Start the tescmd Node and Pair with the Gateway

The tescmd node bridges the Tesla Fleet API to the OpenClaw Gateway. The first connection requires a one-time pairing approval. First-time pairing: Start the node with just the Gateway URL (no token needed): tescmd serve <VIN> --openclaw <gateway_ws_url> The node sends a node.pair.request to the Gateway and waits for approval. The pending request expires after 5 minutes, so approve it promptly. In a separate terminal, approve the pairing: openclaw nodes pending # View waiting pair requests openclaw nodes approve <requestId> # Approve the node On approval the Gateway issues an authentication token. The node receives it, saves it to ~/.config/tescmd/bridge.json, and establishes the authenticated connection. No manual token handling is needed. Tell the user: "Start the tescmd node with tescmd serve <VIN> --openclaw <gateway_url>, then in another terminal run openclaw nodes pending and openclaw nodes approve <requestId> to complete pairing." Wait for the user to confirm pairing is complete before continuing. Subsequent connections (already paired): Once paired, the node reconnects automatically using the stored token: tescmd serve <VIN> --openclaw <gateway_ws_url> You can also pass the token explicitly if needed: tescmd serve <VIN> --openclaw <gateway_ws_url> --openclaw-token <gateway_token> Node management commands: CommandPurposeopenclaw nodes pendingView pending pair requestsopenclaw nodes approve <id>Approve a nodeopenclaw nodes reject <id>Reject a nodeopenclaw nodes statusList paired nodes and their status Operating modes: ModeCommandDescriptionFull (default)tescmd serve <VIN> --openclaw <url>MCP server + telemetry + OpenClaw bridgeBridge onlytescmd serve <VIN> --no-mcp --openclaw <url>Telemetry + OpenClaw, no MCP serverWith Tailscaletescmd serve <VIN> --tailscale --openclaw <url>Exposes MCP via Tailscale FunnelDry runtescmd serve <VIN> --dry-runLog events as JSONL, no Gateway connection Key flags reference: FlagDescription<VIN>Vehicle Identification Number (positional)--openclaw <ws_url>Gateway WebSocket URL (e.g. ws://host:18789)--openclaw-token <token>Gateway authentication token (auto-stored after pairing)--openclaw-config <path>Bridge config JSON (default: ~/.config/tescmd/bridge.json)--transport <type>MCP transport: streamable-http (default) or stdio--port <num>MCP HTTP port (default: 8080)--host <addr>MCP bind address (default: 127.0.0.1)--telemetry-port <num>Telemetry WebSocket port (default: 4443)--fields <preset>Telemetry fields: driving, charging, or all--interval <sec>Telemetry polling interval in seconds--no-telemetryDisable telemetry streaming--no-mcpDisable MCP server--no-logDisable CSV telemetry logging--dry-runLog events as JSONL without connecting to Gateway--tailscaleExpose MCP via Tailscale Funnel--client-id <id>MCP OAuth client ID--client-secret <secret>MCP OAuth client secret Environment variables (alternative to flags): These can be set in ~/.config/tescmd/.env: TESLA_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id TESLA_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret TESLA_VIN=5YJ3E1EA1NF000000 TESLA_REGION=na # na, eu, or cn OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_URL=ws://gateway.example.com:18789 OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN=your-token TESLA_COMMAND_PROTOCOL=auto # auto, signed, or unsigned

Step 7: Verify the Connection

Once the node is running and paired, confirm it connected to the Gateway: openclaw nodes status Or use the agent tool: Call tescmd_node_status to check connection status If connected, the plugin's tools are ready. Call tescmd_help for the full runtime reference including tool usage, workflows, and error handling.

Troubleshooting Setup

ProblemSolution"no node connected"Start the node: tescmd serve <VIN> --openclaw <url>Pairing request not visibleCheck openclaw nodes pending โ€” requests expire after 5 minutes. Restart the node to generate a new request.Node connects then disconnectsCheck Gateway URL. Run tescmd auth status to verify Tesla auth.Auth/token errorsRe-authenticate: tescmd auth loginSetup wizard issuesRe-run tescmd setup or check https://github.com/oceanswave/tescmdPlugin not loadingRun openclaw plugins doctor. Check openclaw plugins list for the plugin entry.Triggers say "not available"Restart node with telemetry: remove --no-telemetry or add --fields all

Configuration

Minimal โ€” the tescmd node handles all vehicle-specific configuration. { "plugins": { "entries": { "openclaw-tescmd": { "enabled": true, "config": { "debug": false } } } } }

tescmd CLI Commands

tescmd serve <VIN> --openclaw <url> # Start node (uses stored token) tescmd serve <VIN> --openclaw <url> --openclaw-token <token> # Start node (explicit token) tescmd setup # Interactive setup wizard tescmd auth status # Check auth token status tescmd auth login # Re-authenticate with Tesla tescmd vehicle list # List vehicles on account tescmd vehicle info # Full vehicle data snapshot tescmd cache status # Check cache stats
