| description | Help teams use Codex inside Telegram-centered workflows by triaging inbound Telegram messages, preparing reply drafts, structuring handoffs, summarizing chat activity, and enforcing approval-aware reply behavior. Use when Codex needs to operate on Telegram message flows themselves rather than debug Telegram bot plumbing. |
Telegram Inbox Copilot
This skill complements telegram-agent-ops. Use telegram-agent-ops for bot setup, routing, probes, and delivery debugging. Use this skill for the workflow layer after Telegram messages are already flowing.
Best Fit
This skill is strongest for:
- triaging Telegram inbound messages
- drafting replies for review
- summarizing chat activity or operator queues
- preparing handoffs between Telegram responders
- deciding what may be auto-drafted versus what must stay approval-gated
Start Here
Collect:
- which Telegram surface is in scope: direct messages, groups, or topics
- who is allowed to reply
- what counts as urgent
- what messages are informational versus actionable
- what types of replies require approval
Workflow
- classify messages by urgency, issue type, and owner
- separate chat noise from real tasks or commitments
- draft concise replies only where the target recipient and policy are clear
- prepare a handoff or summary for anything that needs human review
Default Approval Posture
- allow summarization, classification, and internal handoff notes
- allow draft replies for routine or internal cases
- require approval for external commitments, financial statements, support compensation, legal claims, or sensitive disclosures
- block autonomous replies in ambiguous, hostile, or high-impact conversations unless the user provides a policy path
