The agent can add and remove emoji reactions on messages using the message tool with the react action. Reaction behavior varies by channel and transport.

​
How it works

{
  "action": "react",
  "messageId": "msg-123",
  "emoji": "thumbsup"
}
  • emoji is required when adding a reaction.
  • Set emoji to an empty string ("") to remove the bot’s reaction(s).
  • Set remove: true to remove a specific emoji (requires non-empty emoji).

​
Channel behavior

  • Empty emoji removes all of the bot’s reactions on the message.
  • remove: true removes just the specified emoji.
  • Empty emoji removes the app’s reactions on the message.
  • remove: true removes just the specified emoji.
  • Empty emoji removes the bot’s reactions.
  • remove: true also removes reactions but still requires a non-empty emoji for tool validation.
  • Empty emoji removes the bot reaction.
  • remove: true maps to empty emoji internally (still requires emoji in the tool call).
  • Requires non-empty emoji.
  • remove: true removes that specific emoji reaction.
  • Use the feishu_reaction tool with actions add, remove, and list.
  • Add/remove requires emoji_type; remove also requires reaction_id.
  • Inbound reaction notifications are controlled by channels.signal.reactionNotifications: "off" disables them, "own" (default) emits events when users react to bot messages, and "all" emits events for all reactions.

​
Reaction level

Per-channel reactionLevel config controls how broadly the agent uses reactions. Values are typically off, ack, minimal, or extensive. Set reactionLevel on individual channels to tune how actively the agent reacts to messages on each platform.
  • Agent Send — the message tool that includes react
  • Channels — channel-specific configuration
