Not who you asked but I slapped this together in 100 lines of code and you may find it useful. It's just `claude -p proompt` (or indeed, `codex exec prooompt` inside a Telegram bot. (Was annoyed by NanoClaw's claim that it was 500 lines, so tried my own hand at it ;)

No memory, no cron/heartbeat, context mgmt is just "new chat", but enough to get you started.

Note: no sandboxing etc, I run this as unprivileged linux user. So it can blow up its homedir, but not mine. Ideally, I'd run it on a separate machine. (My hottest take here is "give it root on a $3 VPS, reset if it blows up" ;)

You may also enjoy CLIProxyAPI, which does the same thing (claude -p / codex exec) but shoves a OpenAI compatible API around it. Note: this probably violates every AI company's ToS (since it turns the precious subsidized subscription tokens into a generic API). OpenAI seems to tolerate such violations, for now, because they care about good. Anthropic and Google do not.

(Though Anthropic may auto-detect and bill it as extra usage; see elsewhere in this thread. Situation is very confusing right now.)
