Telegram Integration

Questi contenuti non sono ancora disponibili nella tua lingua.

Your agent can run as a Telegram bot, giving you a mobile-friendly interface to your knowledge base, planning, and all agent capabilities. The Telegram transport runs alongside the standard MCP interface, so you can use both.

Enabling Telegram

From your agent project directory:

npx @soleri/cli telegram enable

This generates four files in your agent’s src/ directory:

File	Purpose
`telegram-bot.ts`	Bot entry point and message handling
`telegram-agent.ts`	Agent integration layer
`telegram-config.ts`	Configuration loading
`telegram-supervisor.ts`	Process supervisor with auto-restart

It also adds the grammy dependency to your package.json and registers two npm scripts:

npm run telegram:start for production mode
npm run telegram:dev for development mode with auto-restart (via tsx)

Setup wizard

After enabling, run the interactive setup:

npx @soleri/cli telegram setup

The wizard walks you through four steps:

Step 1: Create a Telegram bot

Open Telegram and talk to @BotFather
Send /newbot and follow the instructions
Copy the bot token when you receive it
Paste it into the wizard

Step 2: LLM API key

Choose your provider:

Anthropic (Claude), recommended
OpenAI (GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1-mini, or o3)
Environment variable: skip this step if you already set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY or OPENAI_API_KEY in your environment

Step 3: Security

Optionally set a passphrase. When set, users must send the passphrase to authenticate before the bot responds to their messages. Leave empty for open access.

Step 4: Model selection

Pick a default model. For Anthropic: Claude Sonnet 4 (fast, recommended), Claude Opus 4 (more capable), or Claude 3.5 Haiku (economical). For OpenAI: GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1-mini, or o3.

The wizard saves configuration to ~/.{agent-id}/telegram.json.

Running the bot

npm run telegram:start    # Production
npm run telegram:dev      # Development (auto-restart on changes)

Checking status

npx @soleri/cli telegram status

This shows:

Whether all Telegram source files are present
Grammy dependency status
npm script registration
Configuration file location and contents (token set, API key set, model)
Overall readiness and next steps

Disabling Telegram

npx @soleri/cli telegram disable

This removes the four Telegram source files, the grammy dependency, and the telegram npm scripts from package.json. Run npm install afterward to clean up node_modules.

Monitoring

Once running, you can monitor the bot:

tail -f ~/.{agent-id}/logs/telegram-*.log     # Bot logs
tail -f ~/.{agent-id}/logs/events-*.jsonl      # Event stream

Replace {agent-id} with your agent’s ID.
