# Telegram Setup
|
||||
|
||||
Connect Hermes Agent to Telegram so you can chat from your phone, send voice memos, and receive scheduled task results.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Create a bot:** Message [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather) on Telegram, use `/newbot`
|
||||
2. **Get your user ID:** Message [@userinfobot](https://t.me/userinfobot) — it replies with your numeric ID
|
||||
3. **Configure:** Run `hermes gateway setup` and select Telegram, or add to `~/.hermes/.env` manually:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=123456:ABC-DEF...
|
||||
TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS=YOUR_USER_ID # Comma-separated for multiple users
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Start the gateway:**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
hermes gateway
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Optional: Home Channel
|
||||
|
||||
Set a home channel for cron job delivery:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
TELEGRAM_HOME_CHANNEL=-1001234567890
|
||||
TELEGRAM_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME="My Notes"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or use the `/sethome` command in any Telegram chat to set it dynamically.
|
||||
|
||||
## Voice Messages
|
||||
|
||||
Voice messages sent on Telegram are automatically transcribed using OpenAI's Whisper API and injected as text into the conversation. Requires `VOICE_TOOLS_OPENAI_KEY` in `~/.hermes/.env`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Voice Bubbles (TTS)
|
||||
|
||||
When the agent generates audio via text-to-speech, it's delivered as native Telegram voice bubbles (the round, inline-playable kind).
|
||||
|
||||
- **OpenAI and ElevenLabs** produce Opus natively — no extra setup needed
|
||||
- **Edge TTS** (the default free provider) outputs MP3 and needs **ffmpeg** to convert to Opus:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Ubuntu/Debian
|
||||
sudo apt install ffmpeg
|
||||
|
||||
# macOS
|
||||
brew install ffmpeg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Without ffmpeg, Edge TTS audio is sent as a regular audio file (still playable, but rectangular player instead of voice bubble).
|
||||
|
||||
## Exec Approval
|
||||
|
||||
When the agent tries to run a potentially dangerous command, it asks you for approval in the chat:
|
||||
|
||||
> ⚠️ This command is potentially dangerous (recursive delete). Reply "yes" to approve.
|
||||
|
||||
Reply "yes"/"y" to approve or "no"/"n" to deny.
|
||||
|
||||
## Security
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
Always set `TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS` to restrict who can use the bot. Without it, the gateway denies all users by default.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
You can also use [DM pairing](/user-guide/messaging#dm-pairing-alternative-to-allowlists) for a more dynamic approach.
