Telegram Notify Skill

Send messages to any Telegram user by chat ID using the OpenClaw bot.

Bot Token

Read dynamically from openclaw.json — never hardcode:

bash

BOT_TOKEN=$(node -e "const c=require(process.env.HOME+'/.openclaw/openclaw.json');console.log(c.channels.telegram.botToken)")

Send a Message

bash

BOT_TOKEN=$(node -e "const c=require(process.env.HOME+'/.openclaw/openclaw.json');console.log(c.channels.telegram.botToken)")

curl -s -X POST "https://api.telegram.org/bot${BOT_TOKEN}/sendMessage" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "chat_id": "<TELEGRAM_USER_ID>",
    "text": "<MESSAGE>",
    "parse_mode": "HTML"
  }'

Send to Multiple Recipients

bash

BOT_TOKEN=$(node -e "const c=require(process.env.HOME+'/.openclaw/openclaw.json');console.log(c.channels.telegram.botToken)")

for CHAT_ID in 111111111 222222222; do
  curl -s -X POST "https://api.telegram.org/bot${BOT_TOKEN}/sendMessage" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d "{\"chat_id\": \"${CHAT_ID}\", \"text\": \"<MESSAGE>\", \"parse_mode\": \"HTML\"}"
done

Add others to USER.md as they interact with the bot.

Notes

• parse_mode: HTML supports <b>bold</b>, <i>italic</i>, <code>code</code>
• Bot can only message users who have previously started a chat with the bot
• Check response ok: true to confirm delivery; handle errors gracefully
• Token is always read from ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json at runtime — never stored in this file
