In plain English

This project lets you run your own AI chatbot inside Telegram by deploying a small script to Cloudflare Workers, which is a serverless hosting platform that runs code without you needing a traditional server or domain name. The setup is described as a copy-and-paste operation, and you do not need to install anything on your local computer to get it running. The bot connects to a wide range of AI providers, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Groq, Mistral, and several others, so you can switch between different AI models directly inside Telegram using on-screen buttons. You can also define a custom starting personality for the bot, which it will remember across conversations. Beyond Cloudflare Workers, the same codebase can be deployed on Vercel, Docker, or other platforms if you prefer a different hosting setup. The project supports running multiple separate Telegram bots from one deployment and includes a plugin system for adding custom behavior. Other features include streaming responses so replies appear as they are being generated, text-to-image generation, and support for multiple languages. The README links out to separate documentation files for deployment steps, configuration options, and the plugin system. The project is released under the MIT license.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1

I want to set up a personal AI chatbot in Telegram using Cloudflare Workers and this project. Walk me through the copy-paste deployment steps from scratch, including setting the bot token and API key.

Prompt 2

How do I configure chatgpt-telegram-workers to use Anthropic Claude as the AI backend instead of OpenAI, and switch between models using Telegram buttons?

Prompt 3

I want to deploy this project on Docker instead of Cloudflare Workers. What environment variables do I need to set and what does the Docker run command look like?

Prompt 4

How do I write a custom plugin for chatgpt-telegram-workers that responds to a specific Telegram command with a fixed message?
