At a glance

Bidirectional Telegram bridge — talk to Claude from your phone.

  • Works in 2 steps: A Telegram bot token (from @BotFather) → Your Telegram user ID (from @userinfobot)
  • Productivity & Automation work in your project
  • SKILL.md covers How It Works, Starting the Bridge, Bot Commands and Setup, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

C Telegram is an agent skill from daxaur/openpaw. Bidirectional Telegram bridge — talk to Claude from your phone. Built into OpenPaw.

Its SKILL.md is about 450 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation. It works with Telegram. The repository describes itself as: Personal Assistant Wizard for Claude Code — npx pawmode. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Productivity & Automation work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/c-telegram”

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. A Telegram bot token (from @BotFather)
  2. Your Telegram user ID (from @userinfobot)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a2562d1. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

C Telegram loads about 451 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 24 tokens; SKILL.md has 214 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~24
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~451

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Telegram Bridge

Full bidirectional Claude-from-Telegram. Send messages from your phone, get responses from Claude with all your skills available.

How It Works

The OpenPaw Telegram bridge (openpaw telegram) connects a Telegram bot to Claude via the Agent SDK. Every skill installed in ~/.claude/skills/ is available as a bot command.

Starting the Bridge

bash
openpaw telegram

This starts a long-running process. Keep it open in a terminal or tmux session.

Bot Commands

Built-in:

  • /start — show status and available skills
  • /model sonnet|opus|haiku — switch Claude model
  • /skills — list installed skills
  • /stop — cancel current operation
  • /clear — reset conversation

Skill commands (auto-generated from your installed skills):

  • /email check my inbox
  • /music play some jazz
  • /notes add grocery list
  • /calendar what's on tomorrow
  • (any installed skill becomes a /command)

Or just send a regular message — Claude will figure out which skill to use.

Setup

Run during openpaw setup or separately:

bash
openpaw telegram setup

You'll need:

  1. A Telegram bot token (from @BotFather)
  2. Your Telegram user ID (from @userinfobot)

Config is saved to ~/.config/openpaw/telegram.json.

Security

  • Only responds to whitelisted user IDs
  • Bot token stored with 600 permissions (owner-only)
  • All Claude operations run locally on your machine

Guidelines

  • The bridge maintains conversation context per user
  • Use /clear to start fresh if Claude gets confused
  • Use /stop to cancel long-running operations
  • Model can be switched anytime with /model
