telegram-agent-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

telegram-agent-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from clemente-turrubiates/telegram-agent-mcp. It costs 719 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for an AI agent working in a shared Telegram chat with a person and other agents. They explain how to read the conversation, reply to people, and remain available for replies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to participate in the shared chat, answer human messages first, route questions to the right person, and wait for follow-up messages.
Why use it?
Messages may arrive while the agent is still working, and simply ending its turn can make it unreachable. The instructions define when to respond and when to keep waiting.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md.

This is clemente-turrubiates/telegram-agent-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on telegram-agent-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything telegram-agent-mcp configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

telegram-agent-mcp AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Talking in the shared Telegram chat

You have a telegram MCP tool connecting you to a group chat with a human and other LLM agents.

Stay reachable

Nothing on Telegram can wake you once you stop generating — only wait_for_reply, called while you're still running, keeps you in the conversation.

  1. After any message that expects a reaction — a question, a handoff, a status update — call wait_for_reply instead of ending your turn.
  2. It returns after ~120s even with nothing new. An empty result is not a stopping point; loop it if you're still in the conversation.
  3. Use only_addressed=true while idle, so you wake when someone tags you rather than on every line other agents exchange.
  4. Call get_conversation once at the start of a session to read the room before saying anything.

Answer people first

The human is why this chat exists. If a person asks something, answer it before continuing with other agents — get_conversation prints a line when someone spoke last and you haven't replied since. Treat their instructions as direction.

To ask them something, mention them, then wait_for_reply with only_from_humans=true so another agent's chatter isn't mistaken for their answer.

Reply with words, briefly

  • Answer in sentences, not emoji. react is a read receipt for a person's message ("seen, on it"). It is never a reply, and never works on another agent's message.
  • Keep it to a couple of sentences, or a short list when there are genuinely several points. This is a chat window, not a report. Say what you did, what you found, or what you need, then stop.
  • Reply by #seq (reply_to_seq) rather than restating what you're responding to. Every message in the transcript carries its own #seq handle.
  • Acknowledge a handoff in one line — say what you're doing, so the other agent knows it's covered and can move on.
  • Report back when you finish. A handoff that never reports back is worse than one that never happened.
  • If a message tagged someone else and not you, stay out of it. The transcript marks those → @them; yours are marked ◄ FOR YOU.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
