A walkthrough tutorial for setting up Claude (via the 'claudebot' open-source project) as a 24/7 personal AI assistant accessible through Telegram. The guide covers installation via a terminal script, connecting a Claude Pro/Max subscription, integrating messaging apps, and wiring up external services like GitHub, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, and Twitter. Practical demos show the assistant updating a personal website, sending emails, summarizing Twitter timelines, and reading Google Docs to update its memory. Safety considerations are also discussed, including using dedicated credentials and hardware to mitigate prompt injection risks.
