Telegram Voice To Voice Macos
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.
Overview
The skill appears to do what it claims, but it will process Telegram voice-note files, store a small local reply preference, and send generated Telegram replies.
This looks like a coherent macOS-only Telegram voice workflow. Before installing, make sure you trust the local yap and ffmpeg binaries, understand that it can send Telegram voice replies, and prefer explicit attachment paths so it does not accidentally transcribe the wrong recent voice note.

The agent can send generated voice replies in Telegram on the user's behalf when this workflow is used.
The skill instructs the agent to send generated audio back through Telegram. This is expected for the stated purpose, but it is an external message-sending action.
use the `message` tool with `asVoice: true` and `media: <path.ogg>`
Use this skill only where Telegram auto-replies are intended, and review generated replies or switch to text mode if voice replies are not desired.
In a busy Telegram inbox, the fallback could transcribe the wrong recently saved voice note.
If no explicit attachment path is passed, the helper selects the newest inbound OGG file without binding it to the current Telegram sender or message.
OGG_PATH="$(ls -t "${HOME}/.openclaw/media/inbound"/*.ogg 2>/dev/null | head -n 1 || true)"Prefer passing the explicit attachment path from the message context; consider changing the helper to require a path or validate the sender/message before transcription.
The workspace may retain Telegram sender IDs and their voice/text preference until the state file is deleted.
The skill stores persistent per-user reply-mode state using Telegram sender IDs. This is disclosed and purpose-aligned, but it is persistent local state.
State file: `voice_state/telegram.json`; Key: Telegram sender user id
Keep the workspace private and delete `voice_state/telegram.json` if you want to reset or remove stored reply preferences.
A compromised or untrusted local `yap` or `ffmpeg` binary would affect the safety of this workflow.
The skill relies on locally installed third-party binaries rather than installing them itself. No hidden installer is shown, but binary provenance matters.
`yap` CLI available in `PATH` ... Project: https://github.com/finnvoor/yap ... `ffmpeg` available in `PATH`
Install required binaries from trusted sources and keep them updated.
