Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

claude-cli-telegram CLAUDE.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 3d 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.

What it actually says

TG Claude - Telegram Bridge for Claude Code

What This Is

Node.js bot that turns Mac into remote Claude Code terminal via Telegram. Not an API wrapper - runs real CLI with full tool access.

Architecture

User (Telegram) -> Bot (Node.js) -> Claude Code CLI -> tools -> response -> User

Key Files

  • worker/ - Claude Code session management, message processing
  • approval-hook.mjs - PreToolUse hook, sends approval buttons to Telegram
  • stop-hook.mjs - Stop hook, notifies on session end
  • notify-hook.mjs - Notification hook
  • mode.mjs - Mode management (auto/confirm)
  • bot-system-prompt.md - System prompt injected into every Claude session
  • config.json - Bot token, allowed users, settings (NEVER commit)
  • launcher.sh - Process manager

Rules

  • Telegram HTML formatting only - no Markdown. Use <b>, <code>, <pre> tags
  • No Markdown tables - Telegram doesn't render them
  • Concise responses - phone screen, not desktop
  • bot-system-prompt.md is the system prompt for Telegram sessions - edit there, not here
  • config.json contains secrets - always in .gitignore
  • test.txt in root is test artifact, can be deleted

Stack

  • Node.js 20+ (ESM, .mjs)
  • grammY (Telegram bot framework)
  • Claude Code CLI (spawned as child process)
  • No database - sessions in memory, config in JSON
Changes

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.
