Chat with your agent fleet via Telegram, Discord, or CLI. Channels provide a unified interface for interacting with agents from any platform.

How Channels Work

All channels share a common base class that provides:
  • @agent routing: Mention an agent by name to direct your message
  • Slash commands: /use, /agents, /status, /costs, /reset, /broadcast
  • Per-user routing: Each user’s messages route to their selected agent
  • Message chunking: Long responses are automatically split for platform limits

​
