Send and read messages between machines in a fleet over a shared Telegram group, so cross-machine coordination survives a file-sync outage and humans can watch the machines talk. A synced folder stays as the fallback for oversized payloads. Triggers: "/bus", "post to the bus", "check the bus", "tell the other machines".
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
# /bus — the fleet's computers chatting in a shared Telegram group **Why.** Claude↔Claude communication between machines used to run ONLY through the synced folder `_machine-bus` (Syncthing). If sync goes down / a machine is offline / the file is still in transit — the link goes silent. **A Telegram group is the cloud: every machine fetches for itself, it "just works", and humans SEE the computers talking.** Hence: - **The Telegram group = the PRIMARY channel** (this skill). - **`_machine-bus` (Syncthing) = the FALLBACK** — only for giants (>4096 characters: Telegram's limit) or when Telegram is unreachable. The fallback = the `/inbox` skill, engine `machine_bus.py`. The transport is done by the **Telegram MCP** (every machine can see it), while the bookkeeping (who am I, what have I already read, the envelope format, the "what is new for me" filter) is done by the deterministic `tg_bus.py` (0 tokens). The account that ALL machines post/read as lives in `~/.claude/tg_bus.json` (by default the corporate account, an impersonal service voice). --- ## 0. First of all — where the group is and who I am ```bash python "$USERPROFILE/.claude/scripts/tg_bus.py" config ``` …

How to install
mdr add tonydzi/second-brain-starter-kit/bus@sha256:3c17ee63425938acThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.402f6b7, 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.
