Connect Your First Bot

Step 1 — Add token in Bots page

1. Open Connect a bot card.
2. Paste Telegram token and optional display name.
3. Press Connect and wait for success toast.

Step 2 — Verify bot appears in My bots

After success, your bot should appear with username and AI status badge.

• You can rename from the pencil button.
• You can later delete with confirmation dialog.
• Keep one stable naming pattern for operations.

Step 3 — Trigger first message in Telegram

Open your bot and send /start once. This confirms first interaction flow and avoids silent confusion later.

Common mistakes

• Submitting empty token (shows “Enter a Telegram bot token”).
• Assuming connection succeeded without checking My bots list.
• Connecting many bots before validating one end-to-end.
• Skipping first /start check.
