PR fix notes

PR #56319: fix: delete Telegram exec approval message after approval resolved

Description (problem / solution / changelog)

Fixes #56286

After an approval is resolved (approved or denied), the approval message is now deleted after a 2-second delay to give the user time to see the resolved state. The inline buttons are still removed immediately to indicate resolution.

Changes

  • Import in exec-approvals-handler.ts
  • Add to deps and class properties
  • Delete the approval message after 2 seconds when resolved

Fix Plan

The fix involves modifying the approval message handling in the OpenClaw Telegram integration.

Steps to Fix

  • Update the onApproval function to delete the approval message after approval.
  • Use the Telegram API to delete the message.

Example Code

import telegram

def onApproval(update, context):
    # Approval logic here...
    # Delete the approval message
    context.bot.delete_message(chat_id=update.effective_chat.id, message_id=update.effective_message.message_id)

Verification

  • Test the exec approval flow in Telegram.
  • Verify that the approval message is deleted after clicking approve.

Extra Tips

  • Ensure you have the latest Telegram API version.
  • Handle any potential errors when deleting the message.
