Show HN: OpenClaw is just not dangerous enough. I needed something else

I'm not saying the world needed another mini-claw, but I needed one. A minimalist self-hosted Telegram bot to talk directly to a [Pi](https://pi.dev) AI agent harness.

I'm not saying you should use it. But if you're a Unix guy like me, maybe you can get inspired, in a world where personal agents include the kitchen sink and a Minecraft server. :)

- Supports switching Pi sessions directly from your phone, to keep context on leash.

- Supports tasking Pi from shell (normal `cron` or `at`) and get response in Telegram.

- You get to run `bash` directly from Telegram, like `!rm -rf /`

- Bring your own Pi, configured exactly your way.

- It's intentionally minimalist like Pi itself. I'm actively removing any feature that can be done easier by bash or by the LLM.

- 100% TypeScript in Bun, compiles to single binary

Small is beautiful (and secure and maintainable).
