If you're a serious Xianyu seller, you know the pain: dozens of buyer messages flooding in throughout the day, each one asking variations of the same questions — "Is this still available?" "What's the lowest price?" "Can you ship to my city?" "Any defects you didn't mention?" Miss a message during dinner, and the buyer moves on to the next listing. Respond too slowly, and your conversion rate tanks.
OpenClaw on Tencent Cloud Lighthouse gives you a way to unify and automate your Xianyu customer service — running 24/7, handling the repetitive 80% of inquiries, and only pinging you for the conversations that actually need your attention.
Xianyu (Idle Fish) is unique among e-commerce platforms:
Managing all of this manually is a full-time job. And if you're selling on Xianyu as a side hustle alongside other platforms, it's simply unsustainable.
Here's how the system works:

Response → Buyer (via connected channel)
Escalation → Seller (via Telegram/WeChat notification)
Since Xianyu's messaging API isn't directly exposed for third-party bots, the practical approach is to bridge Xianyu conversations through a connected messaging channel (like WeChat or a dedicated relay) that OpenClaw can access. Many sellers already use WeChat groups or Telegram channels to manage their Xianyu operations — OpenClaw plugs right into that workflow.
Go to the Tencent Cloud Lighthouse Special Offer page:
# SSH into your Lighthouse instance
clawdbot onboard
# Setup:
# Mode -> QuickStart
# Model -> DeepSeek (cost-effective for high-volume messaging)
# Channel -> WeChat (for domestic) or Telegram (for flexibility)
# Hooks -> session-memory (essential for tracking buyer conversations)
# NEVER hard-code your API keys in scripts
# Use the secure onboard wizard
# Enable daemon mode — your Xianyu buyers message at all hours
clawdbot daemon install
clawdbot daemon start

Buyer: "Is the Sony headphones still available?"
Agent: "Yes! The Sony WH-1000XM4 is still available. It's in 9/10 condition — 25+ hour battery life, comes with the case and all cables. Asking 850 RMB. Want me to hold it for you?"
Buyer: "Can you do 600 for the headphones?"
Agent: "Thanks for the offer! The lowest I can go is 750 RMB — these are in excellent condition with 25+ hours of battery life, which is rare for second-hand XM4s. That's already well below the 1,200 RMB retail price. How does 750 sound?"Buyer: "How about 700?"
Agent: "I appreciate the negotiation! My firm bottom is 750 RMB. At that price, you're getting a near-perfect pair with the full accessory kit. If you're interested, I can ship today via SF Express."
Buyer: "You mentioned a scuff on the left hinge — how bad is it?"
Agent: "It's a cosmetic scuff about 3mm long on the left hinge — purely surface-level, doesn't affect function at all. You can see it in the 4th photo on the listing. When the headphones are on your head, it's completely invisible. Happy to take an additional close-up photo if you'd like."
When a conversation requires the seller's personal judgment:
Buyer: "I'm in Urumqi — can you guarantee delivery within 3 days?"
Agent: "Great question! SF Express typically takes 3-5 days to Urumqi from our location. Let me check with the seller on expedited options and get back to you shortly."

For sellers with 50+ active listings, organize your item database by category and update it as items sell:
# Maintain your listing database as a structured file
# Update when items sell or new items are listed
# The agent references this in real-time
# Example: mark an item as sold
# Update your listing file:
# Status: SOLD (2026-03-05)
# This prevents the agent from telling buyers it's still available
