What it does

Telegram is an agent skill from Gerstep/cybos. Process Telegram messages via GramJS MTProto client. Read messages, generate AI drafts, save drafts, and create intro groups. Use when handling Telegram conversations or facilitating introductions.

Its SKILL.md is about 790 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `workflows/create-intro-group.md` and `workflows/process-messages.md`).

It works with Telegram.

When your agent uses it

  • Handling Telegram conversations
  • Facilitating introductions

Example prompts

  • “/telegram”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2f0646f. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • bun

    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

Telegram loads about 794 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 250 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~794

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 250 words (~794 tokens).

“Process Telegram messages via GramJS MTProto client. Supports unread messages, specific users, message requests, and group creation for introductions.”
