Bridges Telegram messages to Timmy via python-telegram-bot (optional
dependency). The bot token can be supplied through the TELEGRAM_TOKEN
env var or at runtime via the new POST /telegram/setup dashboard
endpoint, which (re)starts the bot without a restart.
Changes:
- src/telegram_bot/bot.py — TelegramBot singleton: token persistence
(telegram_state.json), lifecycle (start/stop), /start command and
message handler that forwards to Timmy
- src/dashboard/routes/telegram.py — /telegram/setup and /telegram/status
FastAPI routes
- src/dashboard/app.py — register telegram router; auto-start/stop bot
in lifespan hook
- src/config.py — TELEGRAM_TOKEN setting (pydantic-settings)
- pyproject.toml — [telegram] optional extra (python-telegram-bot>=21),
telegram_bot wheel include
- .env.example — TELEGRAM_TOKEN section
- .gitignore — exclude telegram_state.json (contains token)
- tests/conftest.py — stub telegram/telegram.ext for offline test runs
- tests/test_telegram_bot.py — 16 tests covering token helpers,
lifecycle, and all dashboard routes (370 total, all passing)
