Telegram Formatting Skill

Prepare Telegram content in the format supported by the sender. For a Hermes gateway reply, write plain GitHub-Flavored Markdown and let the gateway choose MarkdownV2 or Rich Messages. For an explicitly requested bot integration, use Rich HTML or the tg-rich-messages TypeScript builder. These are different delivery contracts: Rich HTML is not sendMessage(parse_mode="HTML").

When to Use

• You are preparing any reply that will go to Telegram via the gateway.
• You are choosing how to present content: table, checklist, code, spoiler, formula.
• The text is long or structured — deciding what goes as a message and what as a file.
• You need a section banner, an inline image or a MEDIA: file.
• You are building Rich HTML with advanced tables, lists, media or buttons.
• You need a validated InputRichMessage payload from tg-rich-messages.
