The /menu control panel

Send /menu, /options, or /help in any chat the bot is in.

Who can open it

SettingValue
The ownerMatched by Telegram ID, so changing your username never locks you out.
Memescale platform adminsMatched by username.

Group admins who aren't the owner can't open it. Anyone else gets no reply.

It works in any chat the bot is in, authorized or not. See Groups and access for what authorized means.

Command suggestions in unauthorized chats

The slash-command list under the / icon is per chat. In a chat that isn't authorized, the bot shows an empty list. /menu still works there when typed.

The three doors

The card shows the Memescale banner, up to three buttons, then a Manage Groups / Close row.

Meme Bot SettingsThe Meme Bot Settings pageOnly when the bot has a generation trigger
Buy Bot SettingsThe buy bot's settings card, in the same messageAlways
Extra Bot FeaturesThe Extra Bot Features pageAlways

Beta

The buy bot is currently in beta, served from the dashboard's beta tab.

Buy Bot Settings turns this card into the buy bot's settings card. « Main Menu on that card brings the menu back.

Manage Groups opens the group picker below. Close deletes the card and the /menu message that opened it.

Taps from anyone but the owner or a platform admin get the alert Owner / admins only and change nothing.

The generation gate

Meme Bot Settings appears only when the bot has a generation trigger. Utility bots with no character and no trigger don't get it.

Meme Bot Settings

Two switches, each with an On / Off button pair.

SwitchWhat it doesDefault
✍️ Image CaptionsCaption text and the gallery-link button under generated imagesOff
⌨️ Require Forward SlashGeneration and edit commands only fire with a leading /, so /generate works and the bare word generate does nothingOff

Note

Turn Require Forward Slash on when your trigger word also comes up in normal chat, so an ordinary message never fires a generation. It applies to image edits too.

Extra Bot Features

Four switches, each with an On / Off button pair.

Beta

X automations are currently in beta.

Each tap answers Updated, or Already on / Already off. Multi-Chain Scanner is saved through memescale.ai; if that fails you get Couldn't reach memescale.ai — try again.

The Manage Groups picker

Manage Groups lists the groups where the bot is an admin and you are a member. Prompt: Which group should I generate and edit images in? Tap to add or remove.

With no such groups yet, the card reads: Promote me to admin in whichever group you'd like me to generate images in, then tap Add Groups.

  • ✅ Title is authorized, ❌ Title isn't. Tap a row to flip it.
  • A group the bot has since been removed from or demoted in still shows as , so you can still remove it.

Add Groups

  1. Tap Add Groups.
  2. The card reads: Let's add a group. Make sure I am in the group as an admin first, and then send me either the link to the group, or the group ID which you can get by typing /getid.
  3. Send the group's public link, @handle, or the numeric id from /getid as your next message.
  4. The bot checks the group and replies.

What you can paste
