Download Telegram Media

Download photos, videos, documents, and other media from Telegram messages.

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

Preflight

1. Session must exist: ~/.local/share/gramjs/<profile>.session

• If missing, run /tlg:setup first

Usage

/usr/bin/env bash << 'EOF'
ROOT="$(cc-plugin-root tlg)"
SCRIPT="$ROOT/scripts/tg-cli.ts"
 
# Step 1: Find message ID with media
bun "$SCRIPT" read <chat> -n 10
 
# Step 2: Download by message ID
bun "$SCRIPT" download <chat> <message_id>
 
# Download to specific directory
bun "$SCRIPT" download 2124832490 471931 -o ./downloads
EOF

Parameters

Workflow

1. Use read <chat> -n N to browse messages and find IDs
2. Messages with media show [media/service] in text
3. Use download <chat> <id> to save the file

Error Handling

Post-Execution Reflection

After this skill completes, check before closing:

1. Did the command succeed? — If not, fix the instruction or error table that caused the failure.
2. Did parameters or output change? — If tg-cli.ts's interface drifted, update Usage examples and Parameters table to match.
3. Was a workaround needed? — If you had to improvise (different flags, extra steps), update this SKILL.md so the next invocation doesn't need the same workaround.

Only update if the issue is real and reproducible — not speculative.
