**Persistent ACP topic binding**: Forum topics can pin ACP harness sessions through top-level typed ACP bindings (`bindings[]` with `type: "acp"` and `match.channel: "telegram"`, `peer.kind: "group"`, and a topic-qualified id like `-1001234567890:topic:42`). Currently scoped to forum topics in groups/supergroups. See [ACP Agents](/tools/acp-agents).
- `bindings[]` with `type: "acp"` and `match.channel: "telegram"`
**Thread-bound ACP spawn from chat**: `/acp spawn <agent> --thread here|auto` binds the current topic to a new ACP session; follow-ups route there directly. OpenClaw pins the spawn confirmation in-topic. Requires `channels.telegram.threadBindings.spawnAcpSessions=true`.
Example:
```json5
{
agents: {
list: [
{
id: "codex",
runtime: {
type: "acp",
acp: {
agent: "codex",
backend: "acpx",
mode: "persistent",
cwd: "/workspace/openclaw",
},
},
},
],
},
bindings: [
{
type: "acp",
agentId: "codex",
match: {
channel: "telegram",
accountId: "default",
peer: { kind: "group", id: "-1001234567890:topic:42" },
},
},
],
channels: {
telegram: {
groups: {
"-1001234567890": {
topics: {
"42": {
requireMention: false,
},
},
},
},
},
},
}
```
This is currently scoped to forum topics in groups and supergroups.
**Thread-bound ACP spawn from chat**:
- `/acp spawn <agent> --thread here|auto` can bind the current Telegram topic to a new ACP session.
- Follow-up topic messages route to the bound ACP session directly (no `/acp steer` required).
- OpenClaw pins the spawn confirmation message in-topic after a successful bind.
- Requires `channels.telegram.threadBindings.spawnAcpSessions=true`.
Template context includes:
- `MessageThreadId`
- `IsForum`
DM thread behavior:
- private chats with `message_thread_id` keep DM routing but use thread-aware session keys/reply targets.
Template context exposes `MessageThreadId` and `IsForum`. DM chats with `message_thread_id` keep DM routing but use thread-aware session keys.

<Accordion title="Model picker authorization in groups">
Group model-picker inline buttons require the same authorization as `/models`. Unauthorized participants can browse and tap buttons, but OpenClaw rejects the callback before changing the session model.

<Accordion title="Long polling vs webhook">
Default: long polling.
Default is long polling. For webhook mode set `channels.telegram.webhookUrl` and `channels.telegram.webhookSecret`; optional `webhookPath`, `webhookHost`, `webhookPort` (defaults `/telegram-webhook`, `127.0.0.1`, `8787`).
Webhook mode:
- set `channels.telegram.webhookUrl`
- set `channels.telegram.webhookSecret` (required when webhook URL is set)
- optional `channels.telegram.webhookPath` (default `/telegram-webhook`)
- optional `channels.telegram.webhookHost` (default `127.0.0.1`)
- optional `channels.telegram.webhookPort` (default `8787`)
Default local listener for webhook mode binds to `127.0.0.1:8787`.
If your public endpoint differs, place a reverse proxy in front and point `webhookUrl` at the public URL.
Set `webhookHost` (for example `0.0.0.0`) when you intentionally need external ingress.
The grammY webhook callback returns a 200 within 5 seconds so Telegram does not retry long-running updates as read timeouts; longer work continues in the background. Polling rebuilds the HTTP transport after `getUpdates` 409 conflicts, so retries use a fresh TCP connection instead of looping on a Telegram-terminated keep-alive socket.
The local listener binds to `127.0.0.1:8787`. For public ingress, either put a reverse proxy in front of the local port or set `webhookHost: "0.0.0.0"` intentionally.

<Accordion title="Exec approvals in Telegram">
Telegram supports exec approvals in approver DMs and can optionally post approval prompts in the originating chat or topic.
Telegram supports exec approvals in approver DMs and can optionally post prompts in the originating chat or topic. Approvers must be numeric Telegram user IDs.
Config path:
- `channels.telegram.execApprovals.enabled`
- `channels.telegram.execApprovals.approvers` (optional; falls back to numeric owner IDs inferred from `allowFrom` and direct `defaultTo` when possible)
- `channels.telegram.execApprovals.target` (`dm` | `channel` | `both`, default: `dm`)
- `channels.telegram.execApprovals.enabled` (auto-enables when at least one approver is resolvable)
- `channels.telegram.execApprovals.approvers` (falls back to numeric owner IDs from `allowFrom` / `defaultTo`)
- `channels.telegram.execApprovals.target`: `dm` (default) | `channel` | `both`
- `agentFilter`, `sessionFilter`
Approvers must be numeric Telegram user IDs. Telegram auto-enables native exec approvals when `enabled` is unset or `"auto"` and at least one approver can be resolved, either from `execApprovals.approvers` or from the account's numeric owner config (`allowFrom` and direct-message `defaultTo`). Set `enabled: false` to disable Telegram as a native approval client explicitly. Approval requests otherwise fall back to other configured approval routes or the exec approval fallback policy.
Channel delivery shows the command text in the chat; only enable `channel` or `both` in trusted groups/topics. When the prompt lands in a forum topic, OpenClaw preserves the topic for the approval prompt and the follow-up. Exec approvals expire after 30 minutes by default.
Telegram also renders the shared approval buttons used by other chat channels. The native Telegram adapter mainly adds approver DM routing, channel/topic fanout, and typing hints before delivery.
When those buttons are present, they are the primary approval UX; OpenClaw
should only include a manual `/approve` command when the tool result says
chat approvals are unavailable or manual approval is the only path.
Inline approval buttons also require `channels.telegram.capabilities.inlineButtons` to allow the target surface (`dm`, `group`, or `all`). Approval IDs prefixed with `plugin:` resolve through plugin approvals; others resolve through exec approvals first.
Delivery rules:
- `target: "dm"` sends approval prompts only to resolved approver DMs
- `target: "channel"` sends the prompt back to the originating Telegram chat/topic
- `target: "both"` sends to approver DMs and the originating chat/topic
Only resolved approvers can approve or deny. Non-approvers cannot use `/approve` and cannot use Telegram approval buttons.
Approval resolution behavior:
- IDs prefixed with `plugin:` always resolve through plugin approvals.
- Other approval IDs try `exec.approval.resolve` first.
- If Telegram is also authorized for plugin approvals and the gateway says
the exec approval is unknown/expired, Telegram retries once through
`plugin.approval.resolve`.
- Real exec approval denials/errors do not silently fall through to plugin
approval resolution.
Channel delivery shows the command text in the chat, so only enable `channel` or `both` in trusted groups/topics. When the prompt lands in a forum topic, OpenClaw preserves the topic for both the approval prompt and the post-approval follow-up. Exec approvals expire after 30 minutes by default.
Inline approval buttons also depend on `channels.telegram.capabilities.inlineButtons` allowing the target surface (`dm`, `group`, or `all`).
