What is TG Image Sender?
TG Image Sender is a dedicated utility designed to bridge the gap between AI agents and Telegram's visual messaging capabilities. By leveraging a unified interface, it allows agents to send images using either dynamically generated URLs from services like Picsum.photos or specific media paths provided by the user. This skill is a core part of the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, focusing on reducing the complexity of media handling in chat-based automation.
The skill is particularly effective for developers and power users who need to verify bot interactions or provide visual feedback without writing custom script logic. It operates as a pure tool call, ensuring that the agent remains efficient and responsive within the Telegram environment.
TG Image Sender Use Cases
- Testing Telegram bot connectivity and media rendering with placeholder images.
- Generating and sending random visual content for UI/UX testing or placeholder data.
- Responding to user requests for photos or images using natural language triggers in multiple languages.
- Automating the delivery of specific media assets to designated Telegram channels.
How TG Image Sender Works
- The AI agent detects a specific intent from the user to send or display an image in Telegram.
- The system determines the source of the media, either by constructing a Picsum.photos URL with specified dimensions and seeds or by using a provided direct link.
- The agent invokes the message tool, passing the required parameters including channel type, media URL, and an optional caption.
- The delivery is executed via the Telegram API, and the agent uses a NO_REPLY signal to maintain a clean conversation flow.
TG Image Sender Setup
Setting up the TG Image Sender within the Openclaw Skills framework requires no external scripts. Ensure your Telegram bot token is configured in your environment, then invoke the tool directly through your agent interface:
# Send a random 800x600 image to the configured Telegram channel
message action=send channel=telegram media="https://picsum.photos/800/600?random=1" caption="Automated test image"
TG Image Sender Data Schema & Taxonomy
The TG Image Sender utilizes a structured parameter set to ensure consistent delivery across the Openclaw Skills network. The following metadata is typically processed:
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| action | string | Primary command (usually 'send') |
| channel | string | Target platform identifier (set to 'telegram') |
| media | string | Fully qualified URL of the image asset |
| caption | string | Optional text overlay or description for the media |
| seed | string/int | Optional parameter for reproducible random images |
TG Image Sender Advanced Features
- Support for multi-language triggers including English and Russian commands.
- Seeded randomization for generating reproducible test images via Picsum.
- Direct integration with the standard message tool for unified communication logs.
- Customizable resolution support via URL parameter manipulation (e.g., /width/height).
