Core Features & Use Cases

  • Channel Integration: Merges a Telegram channel implementation into the codebase and registers the channel with NanoClaw.
  • Flexible Modes: Supports a main chat that responds to all messages or a trigger-only control channel for notifications and command triggers.
  • Operational Setup: Guides through creating a Telegram bot token, configuring TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN in the environment, syncing to the container, disabling group privacy for group visibility, and registering chat IDs.
  • Use Case: Replace or augment WhatsApp with Telegram to receive real-time alerts, accept administrator commands via mentions, or run passive notification channels for system events.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add a Telegram bot to NanoClaw for chat-based notifications?▼

To add a Telegram bot to NanoClaw, merge the telegram channel code into your repository, set the TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN environment variable, and run the setup script to register chat IDs. This enables messaging, notifications, and command control.

Can I use a Telegram bot in a group chat with NanoClaw?▼

Yes, the Telegram integration supports group chat scenarios. You must disable group privacy for the bot to ensure visibility of all messages in the group, allowing it to function as a main chat or a trigger-only control channel.

What is the difference between a main chat and trigger-only mode for Telegram bots?▼

A main chat mode allows the Telegram bot to respond to all incoming messages, while trigger-only mode restricts the bot to passive notifications and command triggers. Both modes are supported for NanoClaw integration.

How do I configure the Telegram bot token environment variable for deployment?▼

You configure the deployment by setting the TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN environment variable with your bot token, syncing it to the container, and running the setup script to register desired chat IDs for NanoClaw.

Do I need to install additional dependencies for Telegram integration?▼

Yes, merging the telegram channel code includes adding the grammy dependency to your repository. This library is required to build the bot, run tests, and enable Telegram messaging within NanoClaw.
