DeepSeek Chat Automation Skill

Automate login with scanning qr code snapshot, input questions got from user messages, and extract responses from DeepSeek chat, and then reply to user.

Key Feature: Pure browser automation + DOM extraction. No LLM requests or processing - just raw text from the rendered page.

When to Use

✅ USE this skill when:

• ask somthing to DeepSeek
• Sending messages to DeepSeek chat
• Extracting AI responses as raw text (no LLM processing)
• Browser automation workflows
• Batch processing chat queries with direct output

❌ DON'T use this skill when:

• Need real-time SSE stream capture (use curl/WebSocket directly)
• Page uses heavy anti-bot protection
• Requires complex CAPTCHA solving
• Need LLM-powered text processing (use Claude API directly)

Requirements

• check browser extention with openclaw browser status, and get enabled: true
• Browser tool with profile: "openclaw"
• No API keys or LLM credits needed

Step 1: Open or Reuse Tab

// Try to find existing DeepSeek tab first
const existingTabs = await sessions_list({ /* filter for chat.deepseek.com */ });

if (existingTabs.length > 0) {
  console.log("✅ Reusing existing DeepSeek tab:", existingTabs[0]);
  tabId = existingTabs[0];
} else {
  // Open new tab
  const result = await browser({
    action: "open",
    profile: "openclaw",
    targetUrl: "https://chat.deepseek.com/"
  });
  tabId = result.targetId;
  console.log("✅ Opened new DeepSeek tab:", tabId);
}

// Wait for page to load
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 2000));

---

Step 2: Check Login Status (QR Code Needed?)

// Check if login required (QR Code scan) or already logged in
await browser({
  action: "act",
  kind: "evaluate",
  profile: "openclaw",
  targetId: tabId,
  fn: `{ 
    // Check for login form (QR Code or phone input)
    const loginForm = document.querySelector('input[type="tel"], input[placeholder*="Phone"]');
    const qrCode = document.querySelector('iframe[src*="wechat"], img[alt*="WeChat"]');
    const chatInput = document.querySelector('textarea[placeholder*="Message DeepSeek"]');
    const userAvatar = document.querySelector('[class*="avatar"], [class*="user"]');
    
    JSON.stringify({ 
      needLogin: !!(loginForm || qrCode),
      hasChatInput: !!chatInput,
      hasUser: !!userAvatar,
      hasLoginForm: !!loginForm,
      hasQrCode: !!qrCode
    });
  }`,
  returnByValue: true
});

Login Status Indicators

Status	Check	Action Required
✅ Already Logged In	Chat input visible + user avatar	Proceed to Step 3
❌ Need Login	QR Code or login form visible	Manual QR Code scan required

QR Code Login Flow

// If QR Code is needed, notify user to scan
const status = JSON.parse(result);

if (status.needLogin) {
  console.log("⚠️ QR Code login required!");
  
  // For QR Code login:
  // 1. Navigate to login page if not already there
  // 2. Take screenshot of QR Code
  // 3. Send to user via imsg and other enabled and running channels
  // 4. User scans with WeChat
  // 5. After scan, chat interface should appear
  
  await browser({
    action: "navigate",
    profile: "openclaw",
    targetId: tabId,
    targetUrl: "https://chat.deepseek.com/sign_in"
  });
  
  // Take screenshot of QR Code
  await browser({
    action: "screenshot",
    profile: "openclaw",
    targetId: tabId
  });
  
  // Send QR Code to user's running channel for scanning
  // Channel example #1: imessage (<account_id> got fron imessage channel)
  await exec({
    command: 'imsg send --to "<account_id>" --text "DeepSeek QR Code Login - Please scan with WeChat" --file "/path/to/screenshot.jpg"'
  });
  // Channel example #2: whatsapp (<account_id> got fron whatsapp channel)
  await exec({
    command: 'openclaw message send --channel whatsapp --target <account_id> -m "DeepSeek QR Code Login - Please scan with WeChat" --media "<your-workspace>/snapshot/screenshot.jpg"'
  });
  // Channel example #3: signal (<account_id> got fron signal channel)
  await exec({
    command: 'openclaw message send --channel signal --target <account_id> -m "DeepSeek QR Code Login - Please scan with WeChat" --file "/path/to/screenshot.jpg"'
  });
  
  console.log("📱 QR Code sent. Waiting for scan...");
  
  // Poll for login success (every 5 seconds, max 60 attempts)
  let attempts = 0;
  while (attempts < 60) {
    await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 5000));
    const loginCheck = await browser({
      action: "act",
      kind: "evaluate",
      profile: "openclaw",
      targetId: tabId,
      fn: `{
        const chatInput = document.querySelector('textarea[placeholder*="Message DeepSeek"]');
        !!chatInput;
      }`,
      returnByValue: true
    });
    
    if (loginCheck === 'true') {
      console.log("✅ QR Code scan successful!");
      break;
    }
    attempts++;
  }
}

Step 3: Input Text in Textarea

// Ensure we're on chat page
await browser({
  action: "navigate",
  profile: "openclaw",
  targetId: tabId,
  targetUrl: "https://chat.deepseek.com/"
});

// Take snapshot to a snapshot dir in workspace (if none, makedir it), and get fresh refs
await browser({
  action: "snapshot",
  profile: "openclaw",
  out: "<your-workspace>/snapshot/snapshot.jpg"
  targetId: tabId
});

// Type message into input box
await browser({
  action: "act",
  kind: "type",
  profile: "openclaw",
  targetId: tabId,
  ref: "e94", // Get from snapshot - textarea ref
  text: "Your message here"
});

console.log("✅ Text typed into input box");

---

Step 4: Keep Focus, Press Enter Key

// Ensure input stays focused and dispatch Enter key events
await browser({
  action: "act",
  kind: "evaluate",
  profile: "openclaw",
  targetId: tabId,
  fn: `{
    // Get the textarea element
    const input = document.querySelector('textarea[placeholder*="Message DeepSeek"]');
    
    if (input) {
      // Ensure input is focused
      input.focus();
      input.scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'center' });
      
      // Dispatch Enter key events directly on the input element
      // Use createEvent for better browser compatibility
      const enterEvent = new KeyboardEvent('keydown', {
        key: 'Enter',
        code: 'Enter',
        keyCode: 13,
        which: 13,
        bubbles: true,
        cancelable: true
      });
      input.dispatchEvent(enterEvent);
      
      // Also dispatch keypress and keyup for completeness
      const keypressEvent = new KeyboardEvent('keypress', {
        key: 'Enter',
        code: 'Enter',
        keyCode: 13,
        bubbles: true
      });
      input.dispatchEvent(keypressEvent);
      
      const keyupEvent = new KeyboardEvent('keyup', {
        key: 'Enter',
        code: 'Enter',
        keyCode: 13,
        bubbles: true
      });
      input.dispatchEvent(keyupEvent);
      
      'Enter key dispatched on focused input';
    } else {
      'Input element not found';
    }
  }`,
  returnByValue: true
});

// Wait for response (5-10 seconds for complex queries)
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 8000));

console.log("✅ Enter key pressed, waiting for response...");

---

Step 5: Extract Response from DOM (Page Body)

// Extract assistant response from page body
// Returns raw text, no LLM processing
await browser({
  action: "act",
  kind: "evaluate",
  profile: "openclaw",
  targetId: tabId,
  fn: `{
    // Get all paragraph elements from the entire page body
    const body = document.body;
    const paras = Array.from(body.querySelectorAll('p'));
    
    // Filter to find assistant messages (not user messages, not system text)
    const assistantMsgs = paras.filter(p => {
      const text = p.innerText || '';
      const parent = p.parentElement;
      
      // Exclude system messages and user messages
      return text.length > 15 && 
             !text.includes('AI-generated') &&
             !text.includes('Upload docs') &&
             !text.includes('How can I help') &&
             !text.includes('⌘') &&
             parent && !parent.closest('header') &&
             parent && !parent.closest('footer');
    });
    
    // Get the most recent assistant message
    const lastResponse = assistantMsgs.length > 0 
      ? assistantMsgs[assistantMsgs.length - 1].innerText 
      : 'No response found';
    
    // Clean up the response
    lastResponse.trim();
  }`,
  returnByValue: true
});

// Result: Raw text response from DeepSeek

Response Extraction Strategy

Element	Strategy
Container	document.body
Message type	<p> tags
Filter out	AI-generated, Upload docs, Help text, Keyboard shortcuts
Get	Last matching <p> from body

Example: Complete Workflow

// ============ DEEPSEEK CHAT AUTOMATION ============

const profile = "openclaw";

// Step 1: Open or reuse tab
let tabId;
const tabsResult = await sessions_list({ /* filter */ });
if (tabsResult.length > 0) {
  tabId = tabsResult[0];
  console.log("Reusing existing tab:", tabId);
} else {
  const openResult = await browser({
    action: "open",
    profile: profile,
    targetUrl: "https://chat.deepseek.com/"
  });
  tabId = openResult.targetId;
}

// Step 2: Check login status
const loginCheck = await browser({
  action: "act",
  kind: "evaluate",
  profile: profile,
  targetId: tabId,
  fn: `{
    const loginForm = document.querySelector('input[type="tel"]');
    const chatInput = document.querySelector('textarea');
    const avatar = document.querySelector('[class*="avatar"]');
    { needLogin: !loginForm && !chatInput, hasChat: !!chatInput, hasUser: !!avatar };
  }`,
  returnByValue: true
});

// Step 3: Type message
await browser({
  action: "act",
  kind: "type",
  profile: profile,
  targetId: tabId,
  ref: "e94",
  text: "Tell me about Landon Railway history"
});

// Step 4: Press Enter
await browser({
  action: "act",
  kind: "evaluate",
  profile: profile,
  targetId: tabId,
  fn: `{
    const input = document.querySelector('textarea');
    input.focus();
    ['keydown', 'keypress', 'keyup'].forEach(type => {
      input.dispatchEvent(new KeyboardEvent(type, { key: 'Enter', bubbles: true, cancelable: true }));
    });
    'Enter sent';
  }`,
  returnByValue: true
});

await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 8000));

// Step 5: Extract response
const response = await browser({
  action: "act",
  kind: "evaluate",
  profile: profile,
  targetId: tabId,
  fn: `{
    const msgs = Array.from(document.body.querySelectorAll('p'))
      .filter(p => p.innerText.length > 15 && !p.innerText.includes('AI-generated'));
    msgs[msgs.length - 1]?.innerText || 'No response';
  }`,
  returnByValue: true
});

console.log("DeepSeek Response:", response);
// Send response to iMessage or other enabled and running channel

---

Common Selectors

Element	Selector
Chat input	textarea[placeholder*="Message DeepSeek"]
Send (Enter)	input.dispatchEvent(KeyboardEvent('Enter'))
QR Code	iframe[src*="wechat"], img[alt*="WeChat"]
Login form	input[type="tel"], input[placeholder*="Phone"]
User avatar	[class*="avatar"], [class*="user"]
Response content	Last <p> in document.body (filtered)

---

Limitations

• Rate Limiting: DeepSeek may block requests (429 errors)
• Event Validation: Some buttons need real user events
• Login Verification: QR Code scan requires user interaction
• No API Access: Direct API requires bypassing WAF
• No Files Uploading: DO NOT upload files to chat.deepseek.com, DO NOT click file button.
• No LLM Processing: Extract raw text only

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
Input not found	Refresh page, take new snapshot
Enter not working	DeepSeek uses custom event handlers
File uploading pending	Cancel file uploading dialog
Response not found	Wait longer, check page rendering
QR Code timeout	User needs to scan with WeChat
Cookies expired	Manual re-login required
