Adds a TG_REPLY_DIRECTIVE suffix to every prompt forwarded from Telegram to a worker pane (single-target, broadcast, and attachment paths). The directive reminds the worker that: - the user cannot see the tmux pane - replying requires calling the notify MCP tool, not pane output - returned message_id should be quoted in taskbox/board references Without the directive, workers commonly reply in-pane and the user sees silence on Telegram.

Summary
Append a
TG_REPLY_DIRECTIVEsuffix to every prompt forwarded from Telegram to a worker pane (single-target, broadcast, and attachment paths). The directive reminds the worker that:mcp__notify__notify(message="..."), not pane output,message_idshould be quoted in taskbox/board references.Without this, workers commonly reply in-pane and the user sees silence on Telegram.
Trade-off
Adds ~300 chars per inbound message — context bloat over long chat sessions. The directive could alternatively live in each agent's
AGENT.md/CLAUDE.md, but per-message is harder to ignore.
