claude-code-telegram
Personal AI assistant you can message from anywhere via Telegram. Talk to Claude Code from your phone with full tool access.
What It Does
Claude Code runs in your terminal with full tool access — it can read files, run commands, search the web, spawn tasks, and more. This bot lets you talk to it from your phone via Telegram instead of being tied to your computer.
Text your bot → it runs Claude Code → sends back the response.
Examples:
- "What's on my calendar today?"
- "Search the web for the latest news on X"
- "Read my notes and summarize them"
- "Send me a daily briefing every morning at 7am"
- "Run the tests and tell me if anything broke"
Skills System
The key is skills. Out of the box Claude Code can read files and search the web. But to make it truly your assistant, create skills that give it access to your stuff:
- Google Calendar
- Gmail
- Notes (Obsidian, etc.)
- Weather for your location
- Your Continuity Bridge context
The skills/ folder has examples to get you started.
