At a glance

Starts, stops, restarts and checks the launchd-managed Telegram bot daemon for Claude Code, and tails its supervisor logs and remote control URL.

  • Works in 5 steps: Process status (supervisor, expect,… → Launchd loaded/not → Remote control URL → …
  • Starting or stopping the Telegram bot daemon on your Mac
  • SKILL.md covers Arguments — dispatch on first… and Important notes
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

This slash command manages the background daemon behind the Telegram bot setup, which runs under launchd with a supervisor and Claude. It dispatches on the first word. Start loads the launch agent plist, waits a few seconds and checks status. Stop unloads it, waits and confirms no processes remain, reporting any orphans. Restart does both and then runs a full status check. With no argument it checks whether the daemon is running and either shows status or asks whether to start it.

Status covers the supervisor, expect, claude, MCP server and caffeinate processes, whether launchd has it loaded, the remote control URL, the lock file and the last five log lines. Logs and stdout show the last 30 lines of the supervisor's stderr and the daemon's Claude output, and url prints the session link. It notes that launchctl may return an input/output error when the service is already in the requested state, and that the URL should be shown after every start or restart.

When your agent uses it

  • Starting or stopping the Telegram bot daemon on your Mac
  • Checking whether the Telegram bot is still running
  • Reading the supervisor logs after the bot stops responding
  • Finding the remote control URL for the running daemon

Example prompts

  • “Is the Telegram bot running right now?”
  • “Restart the daemon and show me the remote control URL once it is back.”
  • “Show the last supervisor error log lines for the Telegram daemon.”
  • “Stop the bot and make sure no orphan processes are left behind.”

Requirements

  • macOS with launchd
  • The Telegram daemon launch agent plist installed in the user's LaunchAgents folder
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(launchctl *), Bash(ps *), Bash(tail *), Bash(cat *), Bash(grep *), Bash(strings *), Bash(kill *), Read

Workflow steps

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

  1. Process status (supervisor, expect, claude, MCP server, caffeinate)
  2. Launchd loaded/not
  3. Remote control URL
  4. Lock file
  5. Last 5 log lines

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 688e8fc. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash(launchctl *)
    • Bash(ps *)
    • Bash(tail *)
    • Bash(cat *)
    • Bash(grep *)
    • Bash(strings *)
    • Bash(kill *)
    • Read

    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

Telegram Daemon Manager loads about 682 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 236 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~58
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~682

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:daemon — Telegram Daemon Lifecycle Manager

Full lifecycle management for the Telegram bot daemon (launchd + supervisor + Claude).

Arguments — dispatch on first word

start (default if no args and daemon is not running)

Start the daemon via launchd:

bash
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.user.claude-telegram.plist 2>&1

If it fails with "already loaded", report that the daemon is already running. After loading, wait 5 seconds, then run the status check to confirm it started.

stop

Stop the daemon:

bash
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.user.claude-telegram.plist 2>&1

Wait 3 seconds, verify all processes are gone:

bash
ps aux | grep -E "channels.*telegram" | grep -v grep

Report success or if orphan processes remain.

restart

Unload then load:

bash
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.user.claude-telegram.plist 2>/dev/null
sleep 2
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.user.claude-telegram.plist

Wait 10 seconds, then run full status check.

status (default if no args and daemon IS running)

Run the full monitor check — same as /telegram:monitor:

  1. Process status (supervisor, expect, claude, MCP server, caffeinate)
  2. Launchd loaded/not
  3. Remote control URL
  4. Lock file
  5. Last 5 log lines
logs

Tail the last 30 lines of supervisor stderr:

bash
tail -30 ~/.claude/channels/telegram/data/supervisor-stderr.log
stdout

Tail the last 30 lines of daemon's Claude output:

bash
tail -30 ~/.claude/channels/telegram/data/supervisor-stdout.log
url

Just show the remote control URL:

bash
cat ~/.claude/channels/telegram/data/supervisor-stdout.log | strings | grep "session_" | tail -1
No args

Check if daemon is running. If running → show status. If not running → ask if user wants to start it.

Important notes

  • The launchctl load/unload commands may fail with "Input/output error" — this usually means the service is already in the requested state. Handle gracefully.
  • After start/restart, always verify the daemon actually started by checking processes.
  • The plist path is always: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.user.claude-telegram.plist
  • Show the remote control URL after every start/restart so the user can monitor.
