Telegram webhook gateway for the Arcodange home lab. Replaces polling-based bots (e.g. those scheduled in Cowork) with direct webhook delivery from Telegram, routed to per-bot handlers running on the k3s cluster.

Phase 1 (MVP): single sync echo handler, end-to-end flow validated. Phase 2 (planned): http forward handler + Postgres-backed durable queue. Phase 3 (planned): async shell / script / ollama handlers.

See the design doc at ~/.claude/plans/pour-les-notifications-on-inherited-seal.md.

Architecture (current)

Telegram → Cloudflare Tunnel (tg.arcodange.fr) → Service telegram-gateway:8080
        → /bot/<slug> → secret_token check → handler dispatch → Bot API sendMessage

Routes

Method	Path	Description
GET	`/healthz`	Liveness probe
GET	`/readyz`	Readiness probe
POST	`/bot/{slug}`	Telegram webhook entry (validates secret)

Local dev

# 1. Provide a config + env
export BOT_FACTORY_TOKEN='8737289837:…'                # from @BotFather
export BOT_FACTORY_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32)

# 2. Run
make run                                                # uses bots.example.yaml

# 3. Smoke a webhook
curl -X POST -H "X-Telegram-Bot-Api-Secret-Token: $BOT_FACTORY_SECRET" \
     -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
     -d '{"update_id":1,"message":{"chat":{"id":<your-chat-id>},"text":"hi"}}' \
     http://localhost:8080/bot/factory

Set / delete webhook

# Once the gateway is reachable at https://tg.arcodange.fr:
export BOT_FACTORY_TOKEN=…
export BOT_FACTORY_SECRET=…
make setwebhook SLUG=factory BASE_URL=https://tg.arcodange.fr
make deletewebhook SLUG=factory

Configuration

Routing (non-secret): YAML at $CONFIG_PATH (default /etc/telegram-gateway/bots.yaml, mounted from a ConfigMap in cluster).
Secrets: per-bot env vars BOT_<UPPER_SLUG>_TOKEN, BOT_<UPPER_SLUG>_SECRET. Sourced from Vault path kvv2/telegram-gateway/config via Vault Secrets Operator.

Cluster deploy

Image: gitea.arcodange.lab/arcodange/telegram-gateway:<tag>
Helm chart: chart/
ArgoCD app: telegram-gateway (in factory/argocd/values.yaml)
Public URL: https://tg.arcodange.fr (Cloudflare déjà configuré pour router *.arcodange.fr vers le home lab → Traefik route par Host)
Secrets Phase 1 : kubectl create secret generic telegram-gateway-bots … (sans Vault). Migration vers Vault Secrets Operator en Phase 2+ via vault.enabled: true dans chart/values.yaml.
