# Phase 10: Telegram Bot Commands **Status**: Done **Parent**: [primary-plan.md](primary-plan.md) --- ## Goal Define and implement Telegram bot commands that users can invoke directly from chat to interact with the Immich Watcher system. The server auto-registers commands with Telegram's BotFather API whenever the command config changes. --- ## Proposed Commands ### Informational - `/status` — Show tracker status (active trackers, last event, server health) - `/albums` — List tracked albums with asset counts - `/events [N]` — Show last N events (default 5) ### On-Demand Notifications - `/summary` — Trigger periodic summary now - `/latest [album] [N]` — Show latest assets from an album (or all) - `/memory` — Trigger "On This Day" memory notification now - `/random [album] [N]` — Send random photo(s) from an album ### Asset Browsing **IMPORTANT**: All asset commands MUST only search within albums that are tracked by the tracker(s) associated with the bot's target. Never expose assets from untracked albums. - `/search [N]` — Semantic/smart search via Immich CLIP ("dog on beach", "birthday party") - `/find [N]` — Text search by filename, description - `/ocr [N]` — Search by text visible in photos/videos (OCR) - `/person [N]` — Find photos with a specific person - `/place [N]` — Find photos by city/country/location - `/favorites [album] [N]` — Show favorite assets - `/people` — List detected people across albums All browsing commands accept optional `[N]` count limit (default configurable per bot, max: 20). ### Management - `/help` — Show available commands with descriptions --- ## Configuration (per bot) ### Command Settings - **Enabled commands**: checkboxes per command (enable/disable individually) - **Default result count**: 1-20 (default: 5) — used when `[N]` is omitted - **Response mode**: `media` (send photos) or `text` (send links) — default per bot, overridable per command with inline suffix like `/search sunset --text` - **Rate limiting**: configurable cooldown per command category per chat (e.g. 30s for search, 10s for info). 0 = no limit. - **Bot locale**: EN/RU — used for command descriptions registered with Telegram and response messages --- ## Tasks ### 1. Command registry model `[ ]` - Add `commands_config` JSON field to TelegramBot model: ```json { "enabled": ["status", "albums", "events", "search", "find", "help", ...], "default_count": 5, "response_mode": "media", "rate_limits": {"search": 30, "find": 30, "ocr": 30, "default": 10}, "locale": "en" } ``` - Default config set on bot registration ### 2. Command descriptions & localization `[ ]` - Store command descriptions in both EN and RU: ``` status: "Show tracker status" / "Показать статус трекеров" albums: "List tracked albums" / "Список отслеживаемых альбомов" events: "Show recent events" / "Показать последние события" summary: "Send album summary now" / "Отправить сводку альбомов" latest: "Show latest photos" / "Показать последние фото" memory: "On This Day memories" / "Воспоминания за этот день" random: "Send random photo" / "Отправить случайное фото" search: "Smart search (AI)" / "Умный поиск (AI)" find: "Search by text" / "Поиск по тексту" ocr: "Search text in photos" / "Поиск текста на фото" person: "Find photos of person" / "Найти фото человека" place: "Find photos by location" / "Найти фото по месту" favorites: "Show favorites" / "Показать избранное" people: "List detected people" / "Список людей" help: "Show available commands" / "Показать доступные команды" ``` - Bot response messages also localized based on bot locale setting - Descriptions editable per bot in the UI (override defaults) ### 3. Auto-register commands with Telegram `[ ]` - Call `setMyCommands` API when commands config changes - Call on bot creation and on config update - Use bot locale to select which descriptions to register - Telegram supports `setMyCommands` with `language_code` parameter — register both EN and RU descriptions simultaneously ### 3. Webhook command handler `[ ]` - Extend existing webhook handler to route `/command` messages - Parse command + arguments + optional count `[N]` - Check if command is enabled for this bot - Check rate limit per chat per command - Execute corresponding logic (reuse existing services) - Return response in configured mode (media or text) ### 4. Implement each command `[ ]` - `/status`, `/albums`, `/events` — read from DB - `/summary`, `/memory` — call watcher/notifier services - `/latest`, `/random` — fetch from Immich via core client, scoped to tracked albums - `/search` — call Immich `POST /api/search/smart` (CLIP), scoped to tracked albums - `/find` — call Immich `POST /api/search/metadata`, scoped to tracked albums - `/ocr` — call Immich `POST /api/search/smart` with OCR context, scoped to tracked albums - `/person` — filter tracked album assets by person name - `/place` — filter tracked album assets by city/country - `/favorites` — filter tracked album assets by is_favorite - `/people` — aggregate people from all tracked album assets - `/help` — auto-generated from enabled commands with descriptions ### 5. Frontend: command config per bot `[ ]` - On telegram-bots page, expandable "Commands" section per bot - Checkboxes to enable/disable each command - Default count slider (1-20) - Response mode toggle (media/text) - Rate limit inputs per category - Bot locale selector (EN/RU) - "Sync Commands" button (calls setMyCommands) --- ## Acceptance Criteria - [ ] Commands registered with Telegram and visible in bot menu - [ ] Each command returns a useful response (media or text based on config) - [ ] Commands auto-sync when config changes - [ ] Admin can enable/disable commands per bot via UI - [ ] Rate limiting works per chat per command - [ ] All asset commands scoped to tracked albums only - [ ] Count limit configurable per bot with per-command override
