README

Your own AI chatbot on Telegram. One file, one command, 155+ models.

Supports any OpenAI-compatible API. Streams responses in real time. Send photos and the bot can see them (vision). Switch models mid-conversation.

Setup

Two things you need:

1. Telegram bot token — message @BotFather, type /newbot, follow the steps
2. LLM API key — from TokenMix.ai ($1 free credit, 155+ models) or any OpenAI-compatible provider

Deploy with Docker (recommended)

git clone https://github.com/diaoyulao9657/tg-ai-bot
cd tg-ai-bot
cp .env.example .env
# edit .env — fill in BOT_TOKEN and API_KEY
docker compose up -d

Done. Open your bot on Telegram and say hi.

Run without Docker

git clone https://github.com/diaoyulao9657/tg-ai-bot
cd tg-ai-bot
pip install -r requirements.txt
cp .env.example .env
# edit .env
python bot.py

Features

• Streaming — responses appear word-by-word, not after a long wait
• Vision — send a photo with a question, the bot understands it
• Voice messages — send a voice note, it gets transcribed and answered
• Markdown — code blocks, bold, and other formatting render properly
• Group chat — in groups, responds only when @mentioned or replied to
• Model switching — /model gpt-4o to try a different model anytime
• Conversation memory — keeps context across messages (configurable depth)
• Long replies — responses over 4096 chars are split across multiple messages
• Access control — optionally restrict to specific Telegram user IDs

Commands

/model <name>  — switch to a different model
/clear         — wipe conversation history
/help          — show commands

Configuration

Everything is in .env:

Variable	Required	Default
BOT_TOKEN	yes	—	From @BotFather
API_KEY	yes	—	LLM API key
BASE_URL	no	https://api.tokenmix.ai/v1	API endpoint
MODEL	no	gpt-4o-mini	Default model
MAX_HISTORY	no	20	Messages kept in context
ALLOWED_USERS	no	(everyone)	Comma-separated user IDs
SYSTEM_PROMPT	no	You are a helpful assistant.	System prompt

Find your Telegram user ID by messaging @userinfobot.

How it works

It's one Python file. The bot receives messages via Telegram's API, forwards them to an LLM through the OpenAI-compatible chat completions endpoint, and streams the response back by editing the message as tokens arrive. Photos are base64-encoded and sent as vision inputs.

Conversation history is stored in memory (resets when the bot restarts). For most use cases this is fine — if you need persistence, a database would be straightforward to add.
