Telegram Channel Worker

Use this skill when the user wants Telegram as a LionClaw channel.

What you run:

  1. start LionClaw in service mode,
  2. run the Telegram worker,
  3. let it bridge Telegram traffic into LionClaw.

Under the hood, the worker:

  1. polls Telegram updates,
  2. posts inbound text to /v0/channels/inbound and treats the response as queued work, not completed work,
  3. long-polls /v0/channels/stream/pull,
  4. starts Telegram typing from kernel queue/runtime status events and coalesces answer deltas into provider-facing Telegram replies,
  5. advances its consumer cursor through /v0/channels/stream/ack.

Prerequisites

  • curl
  • jq
  • Telegram bot token with DM access
  • LionClaw running (default http://127.0.0.1:8979)

Setup

  1. Register the skill and channel:
bash
lionclaw skill add skills/channel-telegram --alias telegram
lionclaw channel add telegram
  1. Start LionClaw for background channels:
bash
lionclaw service up --runtime codex
  1. Run the worker script:
bash
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=... \
LIONCLAW_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8979 \
./skills/channel-telegram/scripts/worker.sh

Notes

  • LionClaw enforces peer pairing (pending -> approved via /v0/channels/peers/approve).
  • peer_id is Telegram chat.id serialized as string.
  • The worker defaults consumer_id to telegram:<channel_id> and start_mode=resume, so undelivered stream events are replayed after worker restart.
  • Telegram delivery is message-oriented by default: typing while a turn is active, final answer on done, no reasoning lane delivery.
  • Runtime selection normally comes from lionclaw service up --runtime .... LIONCLAW_RUNTIME_ID is an optional per-worker override for low-level testing.
  • The worker stores Telegram offset in .lionclaw-telegram-offset by default.
