I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.

Upgrade existing

I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise.

Telegram History

Fetch message history from any Telegram chat using MTProto (Telethon). The Bot API cannot read chat history โ€” this skill uses the user API instead.

1. Install Telethon

pip3 install telethon

2. Get API credentials

Go to https://my.telegram.org/apps and create an app. Save credentials in the skill directory: cat > <skill-dir>/api_credentials.json << 'EOF' {"api_id": YOUR_API_ID, "api_hash": "YOUR_API_HASH"} EOF

3. Login (one-time)

All paths below are relative to the skill directory. # Step 1: Request a login code (sent to your Telegram app) python3 scripts/login.py send +1234567890 # Output: Code sent! phone_code_hash: abc123 # Output: Run: python3 login.py verify +1234567890 <code> abc123 # Step 2: Verify with the code you received # IMPORTANT: Do NOT send the code via Telegram โ€” Telegram detects shared codes and blocks login. # Use a file, another messenger, or run the command directly in terminal. python3 scripts/login.py verify +1234567890 <CODE> <PHONE_CODE_HASH> # If 2FA is enabled, append your password: python3 scripts/login.py verify +1234567890 <CODE> <PHONE_CODE_HASH> <2FA_PASSWORD> # Check login status: python3 scripts/login.py check +1234567890 Session persists in session/ โ€” no need to re-login after initial setup.

Usage

# Fetch last 50 messages from a chat python3 scripts/tg_history.py history <chat_id> --limit 50 # Fetch from a forum topic python3 scripts/tg_history.py history <chat_id> --topic <topic_id> --limit 30 # JSON output python3 scripts/tg_history.py history <chat_id> --json # Paginate (messages before a specific ID) python3 scripts/tg_history.py history <chat_id> --offset-id <msg_id> --limit 50

Notes

Group chat IDs use -100 prefix (e.g., -1001234567890) Forum topic IDs = the thread/topic message ID Sender names are resolved automatically All paths (session, credentials) are resolved relative to the skill directory โ€” works regardless of install location

Category context

Code helpers, APIs, CLIs, browser automation, testing, and developer operations.
