What it does
Creating Letta Code Channels is an agent skill from letta-ai/skills. Builds and debugs Letta Code channels, including first-party channel adapters and dynamic user channel plugins under ~/.letta/channels. Use when adding Telegram, WhatsApp, Bluesky, Slack, Discord, or custom channel support; testing channel routing, pairing, MessageChannel, runtime dependencies, or channel plugin manifests.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/first-party-channels.md`, `references/testing.md` and `references/user-plugins.md`).
It sits in Writing & Content. It works with Letta, Discord, Slack and Telegram. The repository describes itself as: A shared repository for skills. Intended to be used with Letta Code, Claude Code, Codex CLI, and other agents that support skills. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Adding Telegram
- Custom channel support
- Testing channel routing
- Runtime dependencies
Example prompts
- “Use the creating-letta-code-channels skill to build and debugs Letta Code channels, including first-party channel adapters and dynamic user channel…”
- “/creating-letta-code-channels”
Requirements
- Node.js
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Work in ~/letta/letta-code or a worktree.
- Read src/channels/README.md on branches with dynamic plugins.
- For a user plugin, create
- Implement messageActions for both reply modes: explicit tool replies and automatic relay text use the common outbound adapter path.
- Start with dmPolicy: "pairing" for testing, or allowlist/open for known headless deployments.
- Test all four legs
- Run targeted tests, then bun run typecheck, bun run lint, bun run build.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6785511. 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
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (TypeScript), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
bunnpx
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
github.com
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
Creating Letta Code Channels loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 88 tokens; SKILL.md has 428 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Creating Letta Code channels
Use this when adding or debugging Letta Code channel support.
First choice
- User plugin (
~/.letta/channels/<id>/) for headless experiments, community plugins, and fast workflow tests. - First-party channel (
src/channels/<id>/) when the channel needs bespoke Desktop UI, custom account snapshots, Slack/Discord-style auto-routing, rich protocol fields, or migration/compatibility shims.
User plugins cannot shadow first-party ids: telegram, slack, and discord are ignored under ~/.letta/channels/. Use ids like telegram-test, whatsapp-community, or custom-chat.
Core workflow
- Work in
~/letta/letta-codeor a worktree. - Read
src/channels/README.mdon branches with dynamic plugins. - For a user plugin, create:
~/.letta/channels/<id>/channel.json~/.letta/channels/<id>/plugin.mjs~/.letta/channels/<id>/accounts.json
- Implement
messageActionsfor both reply modes: explicit tool replies and automatic relay text use the common outbound adapter path. - Start with
dmPolicy: "pairing"for testing, orallowlist/openfor known headless deployments. - Test all four legs:
- plugin discovery/import
- inbound
adapter.onMessage(msg)to route/pairing - routed channel notification reaches the agent
- outbound behavior matches the account's captured reply mode: explicit
MessageChanneldelivery in tool mode, or automatic finalized-text delivery in relay mode
- Run targeted tests, then
bun run typecheck,bun run lint,bun run build.

Scaffold helper
Use the bundled scaffold for a minimal user plugin skeleton. Replace <path-to-this-skill> with this skill directory path:
npx tsx <path-to-this-skill>/scripts/scaffold-user-channel-plugin.ts \
my-channel "My Channel" \
--runtime-package some-sdk@1.0.0 \
--runtime-module some-sdkIt creates channel.json, plugin.mjs, and accounts.example.json. Replace the TODO inbound/outbound implementation with the real SDK calls.

Hard lessons
- Accounts default to tool mode when
reply_modeis unset or invalid. Add"reply_mode": "relay"to an existing saved account, preserving its actual ID, root fields, and credentials. - Relay requires a build containing PR 4043; v0.34.1 predates it. The on-device gateway implements delivery; remote hosts must supply transport and captured per-input policy. This is a host distinction, not an agent-state restriction. Mode changes affect new inputs, not active or queued ones.
- A single-destination relay input sends finalized text without
MessageChannel; unfinished error/cancel text, reasoning, and subagent output are excluded. Multi-destination inputs require explicit replies, never broadcasts. Queued inputs stay separate. Use tool mode for reactions, files, and proactive sends. - For public channels, suppress tool approval/control prompts unless there is verified operator routing. Posting approval prompts publicly leaks tool input and invites forged
approvereplies. - User plugin runtime resolution must not count parent/dev
node_modules. Runtime modules should resolve from explicit runtime dirs only. - Headless pairing is CLI-first:
letta channels pair --channel <id> --code <code> --agent <agent-id> --conversation <conversation-id>. - Running listeners reload
pairing.yamlandrouting.yamlon the next inbound miss; restart only when adapter/account config itself changed.
