What's new in v0.5.0
- Outgoing media sends now retry on transient Telegram errors, and file downloads are hardened against truncated responses.
- Added a backoff guard for Telegram 429 rate-limit floods and for delayed-delivery queue congestion, so bursts no longer drop messages.
- Read-only info commands (
/context, /usage, /cost) are mirrored back to Telegram as a clean text view of the terminal screen.
- Fixed a restart race that could double-attach the bridge after a rapid session restart.
- The bridge now self-heals a stale pane pid and a dual-session busy lockup instead of requiring a manual restart.
- README now documents installation from PyPI:
pipx install claude-telegram-bridge.
Install / upgrade
pipx install claude-telegram-bridge # or: pipx upgrade claude-telegram-bridge
