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"

# 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)
