Build a Telegram bot that sends emails and checks calendar

Julian Goldie used Replit's agents and automations feature to build a Telegram bot that sends emails and checks his calendar, taking 28 messages; the feature is in beta and buggy.

What they did

Opened Replit agents and automations, entered OpenAI key, and connected Outlook via OAuth for email and calendar access. Selected Telegram bot trigger, then exchanged 28 messages describing the desired bot so the agent handled all API setup and code generation automatically before publishing.

How it went

Produced a working Telegram bot that checked calendar gaps and sent Outlook meeting invites. Beta bugs included no persistent memory in the test playground and occasional formatting errors.

Worth knowing

Requires own OpenAI API key; beta with bugs like needing a fresh Telegram bot for each deployment.
