# TELEGRAM-NOTIFICATIONS

## Purpose

Shared setup for Telegram notifications used by reviewer-driven skills such as `create-plan` and `implement-plan`, both for completion and for pauses that need user attention.

## Requirements

- Telegram bot token in `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN`
- Telegram chat id in `TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID`
- Notification helper installed beside the shared reviewer runtime:
  - Codex: `~/.codex/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh`
  - Claude Code: `~/.claude/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh`
  - OpenCode: `~/.config/opencode/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh`
  - Cursor: `.cursor/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh` or `~/.cursor/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh`

## Install

The helper ships from `skills/reviewer-runtime/` together with `run-review.sh`.

### Codex

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills/reviewer-runtime
cp -R skills/reviewer-runtime/* ~/.codex/skills/reviewer-runtime/
```

### Claude Code

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/reviewer-runtime
cp -R skills/reviewer-runtime/* ~/.claude/skills/reviewer-runtime/
```

### OpenCode

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.config/opencode/skills/reviewer-runtime
cp -R skills/reviewer-runtime/* ~/.config/opencode/skills/reviewer-runtime/
```

### Cursor

Repo-local install:

```bash
mkdir -p .cursor/skills/reviewer-runtime
cp -R skills/reviewer-runtime/* .cursor/skills/reviewer-runtime/
```

Global install:

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.cursor/skills/reviewer-runtime
cp -R skills/reviewer-runtime/* ~/.cursor/skills/reviewer-runtime/
```

## Verify Installation

```bash
test -x ~/.codex/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh || true
test -x ~/.claude/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh || true
test -x ~/.config/opencode/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh || true
test -x .cursor/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh || test -x ~/.cursor/skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh || true
```

## Configure Telegram

Export the required variables before running a skill that sends Telegram notifications:

```bash
export TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="<bot-token>"
export TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID="<chat-id>"
```

Optional:

```bash
export TELEGRAM_API_BASE_URL="https://api.telegram.org"
```

## Test the Helper

Example:

```bash
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="<bot-token>" \
TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID="<chat-id>" \
skills/reviewer-runtime/notify-telegram.sh --message "Telegram notification test"
```

## Rules

- Telegram is the only supported notification path for these skills.
- Notification failures are non-blocking, but they must be surfaced to the user.
- Before stopping for any user interaction, approval, or manual decision, send a Telegram summary first if configured.
- Skills should report when Telegram is not configured instead of silently pretending a notification was sent.
