Manage a home server from Telegram

A Telegram bot that lists your containers, restarts one, and tells you when something falls over — and cannot be used by anyone but you.

Requirements

Commands: status, logs (last 50 lines), restart, stop, with confirmation for anything destructive

Only a configured allow-list of Telegram user IDs gets a reply; everyone else is ignored silently

A watcher that messages you when a container exits non-zero, with backoff so a crash loop does not spam

Runs as its own container with the minimum Docker socket permissions you can justify in the README

Every command is logged with who ran it

Inline buttons for the confirmation step
