Telegram Bot
Canonical tools, triggers, auth, schemas, and mock behavior for Telegram Bot.
Run a valid telegram.get_message call through the same SDK surface used by every toolkit.
Minimal tool call
import { Eyeball } from "@eyeball/sdk";
const eyeball = new Eyeball({
apiKey: process.env.EYEBALL_API_KEY!,
baseUrl: process.env.EYEBALL_EXECUTOR_URL!,
});
const output = await eyeball.tools.run(
"telegram.get_message",
{
"conversationId": "example_conversationId",
"messageId": "example_messageId"
},
{ userId: "demo_user" },
);
console.log(output);The model receives canonical output. Your application retains the execution envelope through tools.execute or the execution APIs when it needs IDs, status, versions, and latency.
Supported canonical tools
| Tool | Purpose | Execution | Effect | Version |
|---|---|---|---|---|
telegram.get_message | Retrieve one message and its normalized sender, content, thread, attachment, and reaction metadata. Use this after obtaining both the conversation and message identifiers. | sync or async | read | 1.0.0 |
telegram.list_messages | List recent messages in a channel, room, group, chat, or direct conversation with portable time filters and pagination. Use get_message when full metadata for one known message is needed. | sync or async | read | 1.0.0 |
telegram.reply_to_message | Reply to a specific message while preserving the provider's thread or reply relationship. Use send_message for a new top-level message; this sends content visible to conversation members. | sync or async | mutation | 1.0.0 |
telegram.send_message | Send a new message to a channel, room, group, chat, or direct conversation. Use reply_to_message when preserving a specific thread or reply relationship matters; verify the destination and content before sending. | sync or async | mutation | 1.0.0 |
Only the rows above are implemented. A capability tool omitted by this manifest returns not_supported; eyeball never synthesizes provider parity.
Supported canonical triggers
This manifest does not implement a canonical trigger.

}Authentication
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Auth class | api_key |
| Required scopes | None |
| Optional scopes | None |
| Credential fields | apiKey |
Credentials are resolved inside the executor by CredentialProvider. They never belong in tool input, x_provider, model context, logs, or execution output.
Provider-specific extensions
This manifest declares no provider-specific schema extensions. Use only canonical fields.
Provider differences may appear only under x_provider.telegram and only when the schema above declares them.
Sync and async behavior
All tools are synchronous by nature, but callers may choose mode: "async" to queue them.
Mutations require a stable Idempotency-Key. The TypeScript SDK accepts it as idempotencyKey; it is never part of the JSON request body.
REST example
curl "$EYEBALL_EXECUTOR_URL/v1/execute" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $EYEBALL_API_KEY" \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{"tool":"telegram.get_message","userId":"demo_user","input":{"conversationId":"example_conversationId","messageId":"example_messageId"},"mode":"sync"}'Mock support
Point EYEBALL_EXECUTOR_URL at a mock-configured executor to run through the real catalog, validation, credential seam, adapter, normalized errors, and execution records with no Telegram Bot account. Mock selection changes the executor endpoint and trusted provider base-URL configuration, never the execute request.
Limitations
- This page describes the manifest's explicit P0 subset, not every operation offered by the provider.
- Provider account policy, consent UI, quota details, and current wire compatibility still require a real-provider certification pass.
- Fields outside the canonical schemas and declared
x_providerextensions are rejected.
