What This Skill Does
Manages Telegram forum topics via the Bot API within an OpenClaw environment. Covers the full lifecycle: creating topics, setting icons, registering them in OpenClaw config with system prompts, and archiving with session cleanup.
It encodes a multi-step creation and archival workflow so topics are consistently configured in both Telegram and OpenClaw config without missing steps like icon assignment or session registration.
When to use it
- Creating a new forum topic for a project in a Telegram group
- Archiving an inactive topic and exporting its conversation history
- Setting a matching icon on a newly created topic
- Registering a topic with a custom agent system prompt
- Removing a closed topic from OpenClaw config and deleting its session
