RemoteAgent.CHAT is built on a serverless-first architecture. There is no custom server to maintain on the cloud side, and no persistent connection between Telegram and your machine. Everything is event-driven.

Components

RemoteAgent.CHAT cloud — a serverless web app that handles Telegram webhook events, authenticates requests, and relays messages. It has no persistent state beyond what’s in the database. Message broker — a managed pub/sub layer that decouples the cloud from your agent. Messages flow in real time without polling. Your agent — the only persistent process in the system. It runs on your machine, listens for incoming commands, calls your AI runner, and streams output back.

Message flow

You (Telegram)


Telegram servers
     │  webhook

RemoteAgent.CHAT cloud
  — verifies request authenticity
  — identifies the target agent
  — publishes command to message broker


Message broker


Your machine (agent process)
  — receives command
  — calls AI runner with the prompt
  — streams output chunks as produced


Message broker


RemoteAgent.CHAT cloud
  — forwards each chunk to Telegram


You (Telegram) — output streams in real time

Design principles

Your API key never leaves your machine. The agent calls your AI runner locally. No credentials are transmitted to RemoteAgent.CHAT servers. Serverless on the cloud side. The web app wakes on each incoming event, processes it, and exits. There is no always-on server process to maintain or scale. The agent is the only stateful piece. It maintains a persistent connection to the message broker and manages runner lifecycle. Everything else is stateless.

Pairing

Pairing links your local agent to your Telegram account. You generate a short-lived code from the dashboard, enter it during remoteagent init, and the two sides exchange credentials over an authenticated channel. The code expires after 10 minutes and is single-use. Once paired, the agent authenticates directly with the message broker using a token tied to your account. The pairing code is never used again.
