# Dependency graph
requires: []
provides:
- n8n workflow JSON for Telegram echo bot
- User authentication via environment variable
- Message round-trip foundation (Telegram -> n8n -> Telegram)
affects: [02-docker-integration, 03-container-actions]
# Tech tracking

added: [n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger, n8n-nodes-base.if, n8n-nodes-base.code, n8n-nodes-base.telegram]
patterns: [env-var-auth, silent-ignore-unauthorized]
key-files:
created: [n8n-workflow.json]
modified: []
key-decisions:
- "Environment variable auth ($env.TELEGRAM_USER_ID) instead of hardcoded"
- "Silent ignore on false branch (no unauthorized response)"
- "HTML parse mode for future formatting flexibility"
patterns-established:
- "Auth pattern: IF node checks user ID from environment variable"
- "Echo pattern: Code node formats message with timestamp before sending"

# Phase 1 Plan 1: Telegram Echo Bot Summary
**n8n workflow with Telegram trigger, user ID authentication via environment variable, and echo response with timestamp**
## Performance
- **Duration:** 5 min
- **Started:** 2026-01-28
- **Completed:** 2026-01-28
- **Tasks:** 2 (1 human-action, 1 auto)
- **Files modified:** 1
## Accomplishments
- Telegram bot created and configured in n8n (user action)
- n8n workflow JSON created with 4 nodes: Trigger, IF, Code, Send
- User authentication via $env.TELEGRAM_USER_ID environment variable
- Silent ignore for unauthorized users (no false branch nodes)
- Echo response includes original text and ISO timestamp
## Task Commits
Each task was committed atomically:
1. **Task 1: Create Telegram Bot and Configure n8n** - (human action, no commit)
2. **Task 2: Create n8n Workflow for Telegram Echo** - `9d503bb` (feat)
## Files Created/Modified
- `n8n-workflow.json` - Complete n8n workflow definition for import
## Decisions Made
- Used environment variable ($env.TELEGRAM_USER_ID) for auth - keeps sensitive data out of workflow JSON
- HTML parse mode enabled for future formatting (bold, italic, links)
- Silent ignore (empty false branch) for unauthorized users - no information leak
## Deviations from Plan
None - plan executed exactly as written.
## Issues Encountered
None - workflow JSON created and validated successfully.
## User Setup Required
User completed setup during Task 1:
- Created Telegram bot via @BotFather
- Configured TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN and TELEGRAM_USER_ID as n8n container environment variables
- Created Telegram API credential in n8n
## Next Phase Readiness
- Workflow JSON ready for import into n8n
- User must import workflow and activate it to test echo functionality
- Foundation ready for Docker integration (Phase 2)
