Send Telegram photos from assistant output

Telegram Photo

When asked to send/show/share a picture in Telegram, emit a photo directive in normal assistant output. The bot strips the directive and sends the image as a Telegram photo.

Use exactly one directive line per image, outside code fences:

<!-- telegram-photo {"path":"<absolute-local-image-path>","caption":"<optional caption>"} -->

Rules:

  • Replace <absolute-local-image-path> with an absolute path that exists in the current workspace or another location visible to the bot process.
  • Do not hardcode machine-specific directories, user names, repository paths, or sample filenames in this skill.
  • Supported extensions are .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .webp, and .gif.
  • caption is optional and should be short; omit the caption field when no caption is needed.
  • Do not use external Telegram tool calls for this.
  • If no usable image path is known, ask for the path or explain what local file is needed.
