```
contact:user.base:readonly
```

Token Management

Lark uses tenant access tokens that expire after 2 hours. Use this helper to get or refresh the token:

bash

# Get or refresh token (cached to /tmp/lark_token.json)
get_lark_token() {
  local token_file="/tmp/lark_token.json"
  local current_time=$(date +%s)

  # Check if cached token is still valid
  if [ -f "$token_file" ]; then
    local expire_time=$(jq -r '.expire_time // 0' "$token_file" 2>/dev/null || echo "0")
    if [ "$current_time" -lt "$expire_time" ]; then
      jq -r '.tenant_access_token' "$token_file"
      return 0
    fi
  fi

  # Get new token
  local response=$(curl -s -X POST "https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/auth/v3/tenant_access_token/internal" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d "{\"app_id\": \"${LARK_APP_ID}\", \"app_secret\": \"${LARK_APP_SECRET}\"}")

  local code=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.code // -1')
  if [ "$code" != "0" ]; then
    echo "Error: $(echo "$response" | jq -r '.msg')" >&2
    return 1
  fi

  local expire=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.expire')
  local expire_time=$((current_time + expire - 300))
  echo "$response" | jq ". + {expire_time: $expire_time}" > "$token_file"
  jq -r '.tenant_access_token' "$token_file"
}

# Usage in commands
TOKEN=$(get_lark_token)

Or get token directly without caching:

bash

TOKEN=$(bash -c 'curl -s -X POST "https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/auth/v3/tenant_access_token/internal" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"app_id\": \"${LARK_APP_ID}\", \"app_secret\": \"${LARK_APP_SECRET}\"}"' | jq -r '.tenant_access_token')

Message Types Reference

Type	msg_type	content Format
Text	`text`	`{"text": "message"}`
Rich Text	`post`	`{"zh_cn": {"title": "...", "content": [...]}}`
Image	`image`	`{"image_key": "img_xxx"}`
Card	`interactive`	`{"header": {...}, "elements": [...]}`

ID Types Reference

ID Type	Description	Example
`open_id`	User open ID (default)	`ou_xxx`
`user_id`	User ID	`abc123`
`union_id`	Union ID across apps	`on_xxx`
`email`	User email address	`user@example.com`
`chat_id`	Group chat ID	`oc_xxx`

Guidelines

Token Management: Tokens expire after 2 hours. Use the
```
get_lark_token
```
helper function for automatic caching and refresh.
Rate Limits: Lark has rate limits per app. Add delays for bulk operations to avoid hitting limits.
ID Types: Use
```
open_id
```
for most user operations. Use
```
chat_id
```
when targeting group chats.
Card Builder: Design complex interactive cards using Lark Card Builder: https://open.larkoffice.com/tool/cardbuilder
Error Handling: Check the
```
code
```
field in responses.
```
0
```
means success, non-zero indicates an error.

Content Escaping: Message content must be JSON-escaped when passed as string. Use

jq

to build complex payloads:

bash

CONTENT=$(jq -n --arg text "Hello" '{text: $text}')
curl ... -d "{\"content\": \"$(echo $CONTENT | jq -c .)\"}"

Date Conversion: Calendar events require Unix timestamps. Use
```
date
```
command with appropriate flags for your OS:
- Linux:
```
date -d "2025-01-15T10:00:00+08:00" +%s
```
- macOS:
```
date -j -f "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z" "2025-01-15T10:00:00+08:00" +%s
```
