Telegram Notification Tool
Tool Contract
Telegram is an AI assistant channel, not an interview channel. A web user generates a one-time bind code, sends /bind CODE in Telegram, and then Telegram messages reuse the same ChatService pipeline as /chat, including simple/agentic routing and AI assistant file memory.
Telegram must not create interview sessions or read interview agent_state. Telegram can create and manage AI-assistant scheduled tasks through the same database-backed scheduler as the web chat.
Proactive notifications are event-driven. Current candidates include resume parse completion/failure and stale application follow-up. Do not send daily onboarding or generic check-in messages. Delivery must respect TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_CHAT_IDS; test or stale accounts outside the allowlist are skipped.
Frontend Entry
The web entry is on /chat via TelegramBindCard in the session sidebar:
- Calls
GET /api/v1/telegram/status first.
- Shows bound status, masked chat id, and enabled/disabled state when the user is already bound.
- Calls
POST /api/v1/telegram/bind-code.
- Displays
/bind CODE.
- Shows expiration time and copy action.
- Keeps copy short; no complex setup panel.
Script Usage
This skill has no application-data Python script. Use worker functions, API checks, and backend tests for validation.
Use the worker functions from the API container:
docker compose exec api python -c "from app.tasks.telegram_tasks import poll_telegram_updates_once; print(poll_telegram_updates_once())"
docker compose exec api python -c "from app.tasks.telegram_tasks import run_proactive_notifications_once; print(run_proactive_notifications_once(force=True))"
curl http://localhost:8000/api/v1/telegram/status -H "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>"
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/telegram/bind-code -H "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>"
Required .env values:
TELEGRAM_ENABLED=true
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=
TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_CHAT_IDS=123456789,@username
TELEGRAM_DEFAULT_USER_EMAIL=admin@example.com
TELEGRAM_BIND_CODE_TTL_MINUTES=10
Scheduled Task Commands
Telegram task commands:
/tasks: list active scheduled tasks./cancel_task <id-prefix>: cancel a task./pause_task <id-prefix>: pause a task./resume_task <id-prefix>: resume a task.
Natural language messages such as ๆฏๅคฉๆฉไธ 9 ็นๆ้ๆ็ๆ้็ถๆ also go through ChatService and can create tasks. Telegram-created task results are written to the task inbox and sent back to the same Telegram chat.
Output Contract
The bind-code API returns code, command, expires_at, and ttl_minutes; the database stores only code_hash. Polling returns processed updates. Proactive notification tick returns sent messages. Do not print bot tokens or raw Telegram payloads.
Answer Synthesis
Explain chat as: web bind code -> Telegram /bind CODE -> sticky chat_session_id -> ChatService -> Telegram reply. Mention phone commands when useful: /new, /new <message>, /current, /sessions, /use <session-prefix>, /tasks, /cancel_task, /pause_task, /resume_task, /stop. Explain proactive notifications as candidate event -> allowlist filter -> rule gate -> LLM send/skip -> Telegram delivery -> notification_events audit record.
Validation
python -m pytest backend/tests/telegram -q
python -m compileall -q backend/app
docker compose exec api python -c "from app.tasks.telegram_tasks import run_proactive_notifications_once; print(run_proactive_notifications_once(force=True))"
cd frontend
npm test
