tg-cli-bridge: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

tg-cli-bridge CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from jaxhemopo/tg-cli-bridge. It costs 836 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for tg-cli-bridge, a Go program that connects Telegram messages to agent command-line tools. They describe how to build, test, configure, run, and install it on macOS.

In plain words
What is it for?
Working on the Telegram bridge, its command-line process handling, output formatting, configuration, and macOS background-service setup.
Why use it?
They give an agent the repository's operating rules and architecture before it changes or debugs the code.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code; mentions Gemini CLI.

This is jaxhemopo/tg-cli-bridge's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on tg-cli-bridge 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 tg-cli-bridge 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

tg-cli-bridge 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 2mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 76 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

tg-cli-bridge

Go binary that bridges a Telegram bot to an agentic CLI (Gemini CLI, AGY/Antigravity, Claude Code, plain shell, etc.).

Build

go build -o tg-cli-bridge ./cmd/tg-cli-bridge
go test ./...
go vet ./...

Install & run (macOS)

tg-cli-bridge init          # interactive config wizard
tg-cli-bridge run           # foreground test
tg-cli-bridge install       # register LaunchAgent + start

Key files

Path What it does
cmd/tg-cli-bridge/main.go CLI entrypoint, all subcommands
internal/bridge/bridge.go Core loop: receives Telegram updates, runs agent, sends reply
internal/rpc/rpc.go Spawns the CLI process, captures stdout, streams progress
internal/output/output.go ANSI stripping, prose/code classification, menu detection, DiffSince
internal/config/config.go TOML load/validate, KnownPresets, UpdateCLI
internal/launchd/launchd.go macOS LaunchAgent install/uninstall/status

Architecture — RPC mode

Each Telegram message spawns the agent CLI once as a subprocess:

Telegram message
  → bridge receives it
  → posts ⏳ status bubble
  → rpc.Run: exec CLI with --prompt "text" [--resume latest]
  → streams stdout; edits bubble in-place as keywords are detected
  → CLI exits
  → delete status bubble
  → send prose-only reply to Telegram

No persistent process. The CLI starts fresh each turn and exits. Session continuity comes from the CLI's own --resume / --continue flag (Gemini and AGY both support this).

Design decisions

  • One spawn per message — avoids tmux pane-watching and Telegram rate-limit hammering from constant redraws.
  • Prose-only output — output.FormatForTelegram classifies lines as prose vs code/tool-call banners. Only prose reaches Telegram so tool-call boxes don't pollute the chat.
  • Status bubble — single ⏳ message edits in-place as agent stdout reveals what it's doing (email, drive, shell, etc.). Deleted before the real reply lands so the chat stays clean.
  • DiffSince — some CLIs (AGY --continue) reprint the entire conversation history on every invocation. DiffSince(prev, curr) extracts only the new content.
  • KnownPresets in config.go — maps short names (gemini, agy, claude) to the right flags. Powers both the init wizard and the /switch Telegram command.

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.
