Core Principle: Curated Feed
Telegram channels are curated feeds. Subscribers expect consistent, well-formatted,
information-dense posts. Quality of formatting matters -- Telegram users notice and
appreciate well-structured markdown. Forward-ability is a growth lever: design every
post to be worth sharing.
Output 1: Channel Post
File: telegram/post.md
Length: 500-1000 chars.
Structure:
- Bold headline -- Editorial headline using
**bold**. Must work as standalone hook.
- Key insight paragraphs -- 2-3 short paragraphs from highest-impact atoms.
Use bold key terms, italic for emphasis,
code for tools/commands.
- Takeaway list -- 3-5 actionable points. Bold the lead phrase of each item.
- Link button suggestion -- Inline URL button for CTA. Button text describes
outcome, not action.
Rules:
- Bold key terms aggressively -- Telegram readers scan
- One idea per paragraph, max 3 sentences
- Every post must deliver standalone value
- Link buttons preferred over inline links for CTAs
Output 2: Formatted Deep Dive
File: telegram/deep-dive.md
Length: 1000-2000 chars. Only generate for high-value content with 5+ atoms.
Structure:
- Headline -- Bold, editorial, slightly longer than channel post headline.
- Problem/context -- 2-3 sentences. Use italic for the key question.
- Insight with evidence -- 2-3 paragraphs from
stat, insight, and
contrarian atoms. Bold data points and key conclusions.
- Actionable steps -- Numbered list (1-5 steps). Bold lead phrase +
one sentence explanation per step. Must be concrete and immediate.
- CTA with inline button -- Suggested URL button ("get the full breakdown").
Rules:
- Justify the length with density -- every paragraph adds new information
- Use all available formatting (bold, italic, code, lists)
- Numbered steps mandatory for actionable content
- Should feel like a mini-article, not a stretched post
Output 3: Poll
File: telegram/poll.md
| Spec |
Constraint |
| Options |
3-5 (under 100 chars each) |
| Max options |
10 (platform limit) |
| Quiz mode |
Optional -- mark correct answer with explanation |
| Voting |
Anonymous for opinions, public for quizzes |
Poll structure:
- Setup message -- 1-2 sentences of context posted before the poll.
- Question -- Specific and debatable. From the content's central tension or
common misconception.
- Options -- Defensible positions. Include one that challenges conventional
thinking. Order from most to least expected.
- Quiz mode (optional) -- For content with a clear correct answer. Include
1-sentence explanation for the correct option.
