Create a Witty Telegram Bot with AI-Powered Humor, Roasts & Stats using OpenRouter

GiggleGPTBot — Witty Telegram Bot with AI & Postgres

📝 Overview

GiggleGPTBot is a witty Telegram bot built with n8n, OpenRouter, and Postgres. It delivers short jokes, motivational one-liners, and playful roasts, responds to mentions, and posts scheduled witty content. The workflow also tracks user activity and provides lightweight statistics and leaderboards.

✨ Features

• 🤖 AI-powered humor engine — replies with jokes, motivation, random witty lines, or sarcastic roasts.
• 💬 Command support — /joke, /inspire, /random, /roast, /help, /stats, /top.
• 🎯 Mention detection — replies when users tag @GiggleGPTBot.
• ⏰ Scheduled posts — morning jokes, daily motivation, and random wisdom at configured times.
• 📊 User analytics — counts messages, commands, reactions, and generates leaderboards.
• 🗄️ Postgres persistence — robust schema with tables for messages, responses, stats, and schedules.

🛠️ How It Works

1. Triggers

   • Telegram Trigger — receives all messages and commands from a chat.
   • Schedule Trigger — runs hourly to check for planned posts.

2. Processing

   • Switch routes commands (/joke, /inspire, /random, /roast, /help, /stats, /top).
   • Chat history fetches the latest context.
   • Mention Analysis determines if the bot was mentioned.
   • Generating an information response builds replies for /help, /stats, /top.
   • AI nodes (AI response to command, AI response to mention, AI post generation) craft witty content via OpenRouter.

3. Persistence

   • Init Database ensures tables exist (user_messages, bot_responses, bot_commands, message_reactions, scheduled_posts, user_stats).
   • Logging nodes update stats and store every bot/user interaction.

4. Delivery

   • Replies are sent back via Telegram Send nodes (Send AI response, Send info reply, Reply to Mention, Submit scheduled post).

⚙️ Setup Instructions

1. Create a Telegram Bot with @BotFather and get your API token.

2. Add credentials in n8n:

   • Telegram API (your bot token)
   • OpenRouter (API key from openrouter.ai)
   • Postgres (use your DB, Supabase works well).

3. Run the Init Database node once to create all required tables.

4. (Optional) Seed schedule with the Adding a schedule node — it inserts:

   • Morning joke at 06:00
   • Daily motivation at 09:00
   • Random wisdom at 17:00 (Adjust chat_id to your group/channel ID.)

5. Activate workflow and connect Telegram Webhook or Polling.

📊 Database Schema

• user_messages — stores user chat messages.
• bot_responses — saves bot replies.
• bot_commands — logs command usage.
• message_reactions — tracks reactions.
• scheduled_posts — holds scheduled jokes/wisdom/motivation.
• user_stats — aggregates per-user message/command counts and activity.

🔑 Example Commands

• /joke → witty one-liner with light irony.
• /inspire → short motivational phrase.
• /random → unexpected witty remark.
• /roast → sarcastic roast (no offensive targeting).
• /stats → shows your personal stats.
• /top → displays leaderboard.
• /help → lists available commands.
• @GiggleGPTBot + message → bot replies in context.

🚀 Customization Ideas

• Add new command categories (/quote, /fact, /news).
• Expand analytics with reaction counts or streaks.
• Localize prompts into multiple languages.
• Adjust CRON schedules for posts.

✅ Requirements

• Telegram Bot token
• OpenRouter API key
• Postgres database
