Overview#

lobstersgram is the Telegram application in the workspace. It fetches Lobsters links, extracts article content, publishes a Telegraph reading view, and posts the result to a Telegram channel.

Goals#

  • Keep the scheduled publishing flow simple and reliable.

  • Avoid a long-running bot server.

  • Reuse markdown-this and md-to-telegraph instead of duplicating article extraction or Telegraph conversion.

Functionality#

  • Scheduled Lobsters RSS ingestion.

  • Local state files for processed items and legacy subscribers.

  • Telegraph page creation.

  • Telegram channel posting and reaction/bookmark synchronization.
