Telegram MD Uploader

This skill enables you to send markdown files directly from your workspace to a Telegram chat.

Prerequisites

1. Telegram Bot Token: You need a bot token from @BotFather.
2. Chat ID: You need the Chat ID for the recipient (the bot must be a member of the chat).

Setup & Usage

1. Configure Environment Variables

To keep your credentials secure, set your tokens in your shell environment (e.g., add to .bashrc or .zshrc):

export TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN='your_token_here'
export TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID='your_chat_id_here'

2. Usage

Run the script directly from your terminal:

python3 scripts/upload.py <file_path.md>

How It Works

This skill utilizes the Telegram Bot API sendDocument method. It takes the file path, validates that it is a .md file, wraps it in a POST request with multipart/form-data, and sends it to your specified chat.

Troubleshooting

• Error: TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN... must be set: Verify your environment variables are exported.
• Error: File not found: Double-check the file path.
• Error: Not a valid .md file: Ensure the file ends with the .md extension.
