## 🤖 Bot Setup

Before using this tool, you need to create a Telegram bot and get an API token:

### 1. Create a Telegram Bot

1. **Open Telegram** and search for `@BotFather`
2. **Start a chat** with BotFather by clicking `/start`
3. **Create new bot** with `/newbot` command
4. **Choose a name** for your bot (e.g., "My Awesome Bot")
5. **Choose a username** for your bot (must end with "bot", e.g., "myawesomebot")
6. **Save the token** - BotFather will give you a token like `123456:ABC-DEF1234ghIkl-zyx57W2v1u123ew11`

### 2. Configure Bot Settings (Optional)

You can customize your bot using BotFather commands:
- `/setdescription` - Set bot description
- `/setcommands` - Set bot commands menu
- `/setprivacy` - Enable/disable privacy mode for groups
- `/setjoingroups` - Allow bot to be added to groups

### 3. Get Your Bot Token

The token from BotFather is your `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN`. Keep it secure!

### 4. Set Environment Variable

```bash
export TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="your_bot_token_here"
```
