Comprehensive guidance for building Telegram bots using the Bot API (v9.4). Covers both Node.js and Python ecosystems with production-ready patterns for authentication, messaging, keyboards, media handling, payments, inline mode, webhooks, and deployment. Use this skill when: Building a new Telegram bot from scratch Integrating Telegram messaging into an existing application Setting up webhooks or long polling for bot updates Creating interactive menus with inline keyboards and callback queries Handling media (photos, videos, documents, stickers) Implementing Telegram Payments or Telegram Stars Building inline mode functionality Managing groups, channels, or forum topics via bot Deploying bots to production (Docker, PM2, serverless) Every bot has a unique token obtained from @BotFather. Token format: 123456:ABC-DEF1234ghIkl-zyx57W2v1u123ew11. All API calls go to: https://api.telegram.org/bot /METHODNAME Store the token in environment variables. Never commit it to source code. Long Polling (getUpdates) - Simpler, no HTTPS required, ideal for development: Webhook (setWebhook) - Better for production, lower latency, requires HTTPS (ports 443, 80, 88, or 8443): Choose polling for devel
