Set up a Telegram notification channel (Sentinel) for a colony by driving the browser — create a bot via @BotFather in Telegram Web, store its token, detect the chat to notify, and turn Sentinel on so the colony can ping the user on Telegram and accept replies. Use when the user asks to "set up Telegram notifications", "get pinged on Telegram", "connect Telegram for alerts", "set up Sentinel on Telegram", or clicks the in-app "Set this up with the agent" button on the Telegram step.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Telegram Notifications Setup (Sentinel)

Sentinel pings the user on Telegram when a colony stalls and lets them reply to
keep it going. It needs one thing: a **Telegram bot token** (`123456:ABC-…`),
created via @BotFather and stored under credential id `telegram`. The same token
sends alerts and reads the user's replies.

You do the whole thing end to end with the **`sentinel_setup`** tool (the same API
the desktop connector uses): create the bot, store the token, detect the chat,
point Sentinel at it, and send a test — without making the user paste anything.

**Activate `hive.browser-automation` first** — this skill assumes you know the
lifecycle rules (the bridge attaches to the user's own Chrome; never launch or kill
a browser), the screenshot + viewport-fraction coordinate workflow, and
`hive-browser interact`. Telegram Web is a heavy SPA with custom rendering, so prefer the
screenshot + coordinate path over selectors when the snapshot is unclear.

### Telegram Web specifics (verified)

- Telegram Web defaults to the **K version** at `https://web.telegram.org/k/`. The
  selectors below are verified there; fall back to screenshot + coordinates if a

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aden-hive/hive/hive.telegram-notifications-setup@sha256:36877925ba302ea5

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
