Claudegram is a private Telegram bridge that lets you control a Claude Code coding assistant instance from your phone using voice or text messages. You talk to your own Telegram bot, it transcribes your voice locally on your machine, echoes back what it heard, sends the request to a Claude Code instance running on your computer, and streams back everything Claude does along with its final answer, all while sitting in your system tray. The README opens with a serious warning that this tool runs Claude Code with full permissions bypassed, meaning it can run any shell command and read, edit, or delete any file on the machine as your own user account, triggered remotely by anyone who can message the bot. Because of this, the author strongly recommends only running claudegram on a separate, isolated machine that holds no sensitive credentials, cloud logins, password managers, browser sessions, crypto wallets, or personal documents, since the built-in safety features are described as guardrails rather than a true sandbox. Features include local voice transcription using an open source speech model, sending photos or images for Claude to look at directly, spoken voice replies using an offline text-to-speech engine, batching multiple quick messages into one request, and streaming Claude's answer back in readable chunks as it writes. A live activity board shows what Claude is currently doing, such as running commands or reading files, and a watchdog process keeps checking in on long running background tasks so nothing gets silently forgotten. The bridge is locked to a single allowed Telegram account, uses your existing Claude subscription rather than a separately billed API key, and includes a firewall style guard meant to detect and block genuine hacking attempts made through the bot, plus a stricter tripwire that locks everything down if any other person messages the bot at all.
