openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] Telegram channel setup-entry.js references missing ./src/channel.setup.js in v2026.4.7 [3 comments, 4 participants]

After upgrading to 2026.4.7, OpenClaw fails to start / config loading throws an error because the Telegram extension's setup-entry.js references a path that doesn't exist in the built package:

TL;DR

Create a bridge file setup-plugin-api.js in the Telegram extension directory to fix the missing reference issue.

Guidance

• Verify the build process is correctly generating bridge files for other extensions, such as WhatsApp, to ensure consistency.
• Check the build configuration for the Telegram extension to identify why the bridge file is not being generated.
• Apply the temporary workaround provided, but be aware it will be overwritten on the next update.
• Consider updating the build process to generate the missing bridge file setup-plugin-api.js for the Telegram extension.

Example

// dist/extensions/telegram/setup-plugin-api.js
import { t as telegramSetupPlugin } from "../../../channel.setup-DnkdT607.js";
export { telegramSetupPlugin };

Notes

The provided temporary workaround is not a permanent solution, as it will be overwritten on the next update. A more robust fix would involve updating the build process to generate the missing bridge file.

Recommendation

Apply the workaround, but prioritize updating the build process to generate the missing bridge file setup-plugin-api.js for a permanent fix, as this will ensure consistency with other extensions and prevent future issues.
