Im trying to set up my agents on telegram. I keep getting a page that says Connect page is being rebuilt. Is there another way to get it up and running.

First: can you paste openclaw --version? Version matters a lot here.

But yes — you can bypass that Connect page entirely and set Telegram up from the CLI.

# create a Telegram bot token first via @BotFather, then:
openclaw channels add --channel telegram --token '<bot-token>'

openclaw gateway restart
openclaw channels status --probe

Then DM your Telegram bot once, and approve pairing:

openclaw pairing list telegram
# 
openclaw pairing approve telegram <CODE>

For multiple agents / bots:

openclaw agents add alerts --workspace ~/.openclaw/workspace-alerts --non-interactive
openclaw channels add --channel telegram --account alerts --token '<bot-token>'
openclaw agents bind --agent alerts --bind telegram:alerts
openclaw gateway restart

Important: Telegram does not use openclaw channels login telegram; it’s token-based.
