 ### Fixes
 
+- Telegram/STT: frame inbound voice-note transcripts as machine-generated,
+  untrusted text in agent context while preserving raw transcript mention
+  detection. Closes #33360. Thanks @smartchainark.
 - Control UI/Quick Settings: persist the assistant avatar override to browser local storage (mirroring the user avatar) so uploaded image data URLs no longer fail config validation with "Too big: expected string to have <=200 characters". Also lift the gateway-side `ui.assistant.avatar` length cap to match the user avatar size budget for non-UI clients writing the field directly. Thanks @BunsDev.
 - Browser/CDP: make readiness diagnostics use the same discovery-first fallback as reachability for bare `ws://` Browserless and Browserbase CDP URLs. Fixes #69532.
 - ACP/OpenCode: update the bundled acpx runtime to 0.6.0 and cover the OpenCode ACP bind path in Docker live tests.
