TeleBotHost

Editor extension for TBL

Commands as files. Sync what changed

Download a bot into VS Code or Cursor, edit commands/, upload only the diff, and read logs without leaving the editor. Current version 0.1.0.

Search TeleBotHost in the Extensions view, or install from:

Visual Studio Marketplace Open VSX

Requires VS Code / Cursor ^1.85.0. Source on GitHub . Platform notes live on the product changelog .

What you get

Built for day-to-day TBL work on TeleBotHost, not a generic Telegram scaffold.

My Bots sidebar

Sign in with your secret API key, see your bots, and download one into a local folder.

Edit commands as files

Work under commands/ with one folder level. Change only what you need, then upload the diff.

Pending changes

Review what will sync before you push. Upload changed files only, not the whole bot every time.

Logs in the editor

Open View Logs for runtime output with search, auto refresh, and clear when you are done debugging.

Status bar context

See which bot the workspace is tied to while you move between command files.

AI ready workspace

Downloads drop AGENTS.md, DOCS.md, and CLAUDE.md so coding agents follow TBL rules in that folder.

Quick start

You need a TeleBotHost account and a secret API key ( sk_…) from Developer Settings.

  1. Install the extension from the Marketplace or Open VSX. Search TeleBotHost.

  2. Open the TeleBotHost icon in the Activity Bar and sign in with your sk_… API key.

  3. Download Bot, pick a bot, and choose a local folder.

  4. Edit files under commands/.

  5. Open Pending and Upload Changes when you are ready.

AI coding agents

On download, the workspace includes agent guidance so tools in the editor stay on TBL. You still review and apply every change.

  • AGENTS.md for workspace rules
  • DOCS.md docs router, one page at a time
  • CLAUDE.md points agents at AGENTS.md

Local layout

  start.js

.tbh/

.tbh/ is sync state. Do not hand-edit it. bot.yaml is server-owned for upload.
