Telegram Bot

Telegram Bot (core.telegram.org). Use this skill for ANY Telegram Bot request — reading, creating, updating, and deleting data. Whenever a task involves Telegram Bot, use this skill instead of calling the API directly.

Operate Telegram Bot through your OOMOL-connected account. This skill calls the telegram connector with the oo CLI; OOMOL injects credentials server-side, so you never handle raw tokens.

Category: Communication, Social. Exposes 21 action(s).

Running an action

Assume the user has already installed the oo CLI, signed in, and connected Telegram Bot. Do not run oo auth login or open the connection URL proactively — just run the action. Fall back to First-time setup only when a command actually fails with an auth or connection error.

1. Inspect the contract to get the authoritative input/output schema before building a payload:

oo connector schema "telegram" --action "<action_name>"

2. Run the action with a JSON payload that matches the input schema:

oo connector run "telegram" --action "<action_name>" --data '<json>' --json

• --data takes a JSON object string or @path/to/file.json; omit it to send {}.
• The response is { "data": ..., "meta": { "executionId": "..." } }; the execution id lives under meta.executionId.

Each action below links to a reference file with its purpose and exact commands. Read the linked file, then fetch the live schema with oo connector schema before constructing --data.

Available actions

• answer_callback_query — Answer an inline keyboard callback query.
• create_chat_invite_link — Export a new primary invite link for a chat. This maps to Telegram Bot API exportChatInviteLink.
• delete_message — Delete a message from a chat.
• delete_webhook — Delete the configured webhook and optionally drop pending updates.
• edit_message_text — Edit the text of a previously sent message or an inline message.
• forward_message — Forward a message from one chat to another.
• get_chat — Return metadata for a chat the bot can access.
• get_chat_administrators — Return the chat administrators visible to the bot.
• get_chat_history — Get chat history by polling getUpdates, filtering to one chat, and returning message-bearing updates only. This helper requires webhook delivery to be disabled.
• get_chat_member — Return information about one chat member.
• get_chat_members_count — Return the number of members in a chat.
• get_me — Validate the bot token and return the bot profile from Telegram Bot API.
• get_updates — Poll pending updates for the bot. Use this only when webhook delivery is disabled or for debugging.
• get_webhook_info — Return the webhook status configured for the bot.
• send_document — Send a document by URL or existing Telegram file_id. Multipart uploads are intentionally out of scope for this provider pass.
• send_location — Send a map location to a chat.
• send_message — Send a text message to a chat, group, supergroup, channel, or forum topic.
• send_photo — Send a photo by URL or existing Telegram file_id. Multipart uploads are intentionally out of scope for this first pass.
• send_poll — Send a native Telegram poll to a chat.
• set_my_commands — Set the bot command list exposed in Telegram clients.
• set_webhook — Configure a webhook endpoint for update delivery.

Safety

• Read actions (get / list / search) are safe to run directly.
• Create, update, send, or post actions change Telegram Bot state — confirm the exact payload and effect with the user before running.
• Delete or remove actions are destructive — always confirm the target and get explicit approval first.

First-time setup

These are one-time steps — do not repeat them on every call. Run a step only when a command fails for the matching reason.

• oo: command not found — install the oo CLI (other platforms: https://cli.oomol.com/install-guide.md):

  curl -fsSL https://cli.oomol.com/install.sh | bash    # macOS / Linux
  

  irm https://cli.oomol.com/install.ps1 | iex           # Windows PowerShell
  

• Not signed in / authentication error — sign in to your OOMOL account once:

  oo auth login
  

• scope_missing / credential_expired / app_not_ready / app_not_found — Telegram Bot is not connected, or the connection expired or lacks a scope. Connect once (auth type: API key) at:

  https://console.oomol.com/app-connections?provider=telegram
  

• HTTP 402 / OOMOL_INSUFFICIENT_CREDIT — billing stop. Recharge at https://console.oomol.com/billing/token-recharge before retrying.
