Python (stdlib)Telegram Bot APIsystemd

A single Python file, standard library only, that turns the omp coding agent into a Telegram bot. It long-polls Telegram, runs one omp session per chat in its own directory, and gets out of the way. Each chat keeps a persistent session across restarts; the running bot is always a byte-compile-validated copy, so a bad pull is rejected and rolled back before it ever reaches production. Process spawning works natively on Linux, macOS and Windows, with a systemd --user service on Linux.

Highlights

  • Zero dependencies — no build step, no framework to patch
  • Per-chat persistent sessions, coherent across restarts
  • Validated-copy deploys with automatic rollback
