esfelurm/BOTECS ? reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a simple Python tool that connects to a Telegram bot so I can send commands to a test machine from chat.

I want it to work on Windows and Linux, and if possible on Android too. It should have a clean script I can run, where I just paste in the Telegram bot token and my chat or group ID, then it starts listening for messages. Keep it lightweight, with a few basic commands like status, help, and a harmless test action so I can see that the connection is working.

Please make it easy to update later, and include clear setup steps in the README so I know what libraries to install and how to run it. If anything needs current docs or package details, look them up online first.
