Telesec

Telegram Business secretary: transcribes voice notes, round videos, and speech attachments right in the chat, with Settings and per-chat controls in Telegram's Manage Bot panel, plus opt-in text history (with import from a Telegram export), correspondence stats, and contact dossiers.

Good to know before installing

Audio goes to the STT backend Hermes is configured with (local or external); transcript cleanup sends chat text through the host ctx.llm; opt-in dossiers send chat text through the Hermes model task telesec_dossier (default Vercel AI Gateway to Google with zero data retention; an optional message check on the same gateway and optional Cloudflare fact extraction are off by default); an owner-sent /dossier posts that contact's stored dossier (without the owner note, but written with it) into the Business chat for the contact to read; runs local ffprobe/ffmpeg (argument lists, no shell) on attached audio; opt-in dossiers run a gateway background thread; modes, opt-in history, and dossiers are stored 0600 under HERMES_HOME/data/telesec; reads only the numeric bot id prefix of TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN; no telemetry.

How to install

  1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
    hermes plugins install telesec
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable telesec
  3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
