What is build-inline-keyboard?

A coding skill for adding inline keyboards to Telegram bot messages. These are buttons shown inside a message, including buttons that send data, open links, launch web apps, or request payments.

Use it to add callback buttons, links, web apps, inline-mode shortcuts, payment buttons, and copy-to-clipboard buttons to bot messages.

It removes the need to construct Telegram button layouts and button actions manually. It also provides a clear way to arrange buttons into rows.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00000	$0.00565
Opus 5.5	$0.00000	$0.00226
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00000	$0.00113
Haiku 4.5	$0.00000	$0.00056

Security

Grade A, and why

build-inline-keyboard 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.

What it actually says

Build Inline Keyboard

Quick Start

Use inlineKeyboardMarkup { } or inlineKeyboardMarkup(block) to create inline keyboards. Attach via markup() or inlineKeyboardMarkup { } on send actions.

message("Choose an option:")
    .inlineKeyboardMarkup {
        "Option A" callback "opt_a"
        "Option B" callback "opt_b"
        newLine()
        "Open link" url "https://example.com"
    }
    .send(user, bot)

Button Types

Type	Syntax	Use case
Callback	`"Label" callback "data"` or `callbackData("Label") { "data" }`	Button press sends callback to bot (1-64 bytes)
URL	`"Label" url "https://..."`	Opens URL when pressed
Web App	`"Label" webAppInfo "https://..."`	Opens Web App
Switch inline	`"Label" switchInlineQuery "query"`	Opens inline mode in another chat
Switch inline (current)	`"Label" switchInlineQueryCurrentChat "query"`	Inserts bot + query in current chat
Pay	`"Pay" pay()`	Payment button
Copy text	`"Label" copyText "text"`	Copies text to clipboard

Rows

Each url(), callbackData(), etc. adds a button to the current row
Use newLine() or br() to start a new row

inlineKeyboardMarkup {
    "Yes" callback "yes"
    "No" callback "no"
    newLine()
    "Cancel" callback "cancel"
}

Attaching to Messages

Actions with MarkupFeature (e.g. message, sendPhoto, editMessageText) support:

inlineKeyboardMarkup { ... } — builder block
markup(inlineKeyboardMarkup { ... }) — explicit markup

Callback Data Limits

1-64 bytes for callbackData
Use prefixes for routing: "action:id", "vote:123"

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.
