Use when Hermes is about to send, publish, forward, reply, post, email, DM, or otherwise deliver text/media to another person, group, channel, or external service and the operator expects Telegram confirmation buttons.

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 Approval Gate

Before Hermes sends external communication, route the final draft through the operator's Telegram approval gate.

## Rule

Never send user-facing or public content directly when this skill applies. First send a Telegram approval card with:

- `Senden` - send the draft exactly as approved.
- `Bearbeiten` - ask the operator for edits, revise the draft, then submit a new approval card.
- `Abbrechen` - stop without sending.

This applies to Telegram, WhatsApp, Signal, email, social posts, channels, group messages, support replies, public comments, and any automation that sends on the operator's behalf.

## Helper

Use the bundled helper when a real Telegram approval round is needed:

```bash
python3 ~/.hermes/skills/messaging/telegram-approval-gate/scripts/telegram_approval_gate.py \
  --title "Freigabe" \
  --draft-file /path/to/draft.txt
```

Required environment:

- `HERMES_APPROVAL_BOT_TOKEN` - a dedicated approval bot token.
- `HERMES_APPROVAL_CHAT_ID` - the operator's approval DM/chat id.

Do not reuse the live Hermes/OpenClaw Telegram bot token while another gateway is polling it. A dedicated approval bot avoids `getUpdates` conflicts.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add martin-hausleitner/martins-awesome-skills/telegram-approval-gate@sha256:6afe3013476a1e3f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260513.7230e8b, 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.
