Telegram AI Sync

   

An advanced plugin that syncs Telegram messages to your vault with AI-powered processing (OpenAI), smart categorization, and automated content organization.

✨ Key Features

• 🤖 AI Intelligence: Supports OpenAI (GPT-4 & Whisper). Automatically analyzes text, images, and seamlessly transcribes voice messages, audio, and video files.
• 📂 Local Processing: Extracts text from documents (PDF, DOCX, TXT, Code files) locally to protect privacy and save API costs, with AI processing as a fallback.
• 📸 Media Albums: Smartly handles Telegram media groups/albums, keeping context together in a single note.
• 🔗 Smart Logic: URL-only messages skip AI to save tokens; distinct prompts can be applied based on the content type.
• 🛡️ Robust Error Handling: Automatically detects and displays user-friendly alerts for API issues, such as exhausted billing quotas or invalid/revoked keys, preventing silent failures.
• 📝 Dynamic Templates: Use powerful variables like {{ai:title}}, {{category}}, and {{date:YYYY-MM}} for file naming.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Install: Download main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css from Releases to .obsidian/plugins/telegram-ai/.
2. Obsidian: Settings → Community Plugins → Enable "Telegram AI Sync".
3. Telegram Bot: Create a bot via @BotFather, copy the Token.
