Implements a 5-iteration maximum agentic loop via AgentRuntime.processMessage() that accepts user messages, routes them through an LLM provider (15+ supported via @mariozechner/pi-ai), parses tool-call responses, executes registered tools with argument validation, and returns final responses. Uses a schema-based function registry where each tool declares input/output types and scopes, enabling the LLM to autonomously decide which of 125+ built-in tools to invoke based on user intent and conversation context.
Unique: Combines observation masking (hiding sensitive tool outputs from LLM context) with Reciprocal Rank Fusion-based memory retrieval, allowing the agent to reason over historical context without exposing raw blockchain data or private keys to the LLM
vs alternatives: Unlike LangChain or LlamaIndex agents that require explicit chain definitions, Teleton's agentic loop is implicit in the message processing pipeline and natively integrated with Telegram MTProto, eliminating middleware overhead
Implements a dual-index memory system using SQLite with sqlite-vec extension for semantic similarity search (cosine distance on embeddings) and FTS5 for full-text BM25 ranking, fused via Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF). Automatically compacts old messages via CompactionManager, which summarizes conversation segments using the LLM and replaces them with condensed entries, maintaining a bounded context window while preserving semantic information. Supports configurable embedding providers (OpenAI, Ollama, local) and stores all data locally in a single SQLite file.
Unique: Combines semantic search (sqlite-vec) with BM25 full-text search (FTS5) and fuses results via RRF, then applies AI-driven auto-compaction that summarizes old context rather than discarding it, preserving semantic information across long conversations
vs alternatives: Pinecone or Weaviate require cloud infrastructure and API calls; Teleton's local sqlite-vec approach eliminates network latency and keeps all memory on-device, while RRF fusion outperforms single-index retrieval for mixed semantic/keyword queries
Manages Telegram session persistence via session.json (encrypted) or phone number + 2FA, with automatic reconnection on network failures. Implements exponential backoff for reconnection attempts and state recovery to resume message processing after interruptions. The SessionStore class handles session serialization and encryption, and the TelegramBridge manages connection lifecycle and event routing.
Unique: Implements encrypted session persistence with automatic reconnection and exponential backoff, enabling the agent to survive network interruptions and crashes without manual re-authentication
vs alternatives: GramJS provides basic session management; Teleton's wrapper adds automatic reconnection, state recovery, and encrypted storage, improving reliability for production deployments
Abstracts LLM provider differences via @mariozechner/pi-ai, supporting 15+ providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, Groq, Together, Mistral, etc.) and 70+ models. The LLM provider is configured in config.yaml and can be switched at runtime without code changes. Implements provider-agnostic message formatting, token counting, and error handling. Supports streaming responses and function calling across all providers with normalized schemas.
Unique: Leverages @mariozechner/pi-ai to provide a unified interface across 15+ LLM providers and 70+ models, enabling provider switching via config.yaml without code changes and supporting both proprietary and open-source models
vs alternatives: LangChain's LLM abstraction is less complete; Teleton's pi-ai integration provides broader provider coverage and simpler configuration-based switching
Maintains an immutable audit log (Journal) of all significant operations: tool executions, blockchain transactions, message sends, and configuration changes. Each journal entry includes timestamp, user, operation type, parameters, and result. The journal is stored in SQLite and queryable via workspace tools. Supports filtering by operation type, user, or date range. Integrates with access control to ensure users can only view their own operations (unless admin).
Unique: Provides an immutable audit log integrated with access control, enabling compliance-grade operation tracking without requiring external logging infrastructure
vs alternatives: Most agent frameworks lack built-in audit logging; Teleton's journal system provides out-of-the-box compliance support
Integrates with STON.fi and DeDust decentralized exchanges to enable the agent to execute token swaps autonomously. Implements price quote fetching, slippage calculation, and transaction building for both DEXes. Supports jetton-to-jetton swaps and includes built-in tools for querying liquidity pools and swap rates. All swaps are executed via the TON wallet with transaction signing and blockchain confirmation.
Unique: Provides native STON.fi and DeDust integration with quote fetching and transaction building, enabling autonomous DEX swaps without external APIs or middleware
vs alternatives: Web3.py or ethers.js require manual DEX interaction; Teleton's built-in DEX tools abstract away quote fetching and transaction building
Supports NFT operations (querying collections, checking ownership, transferring NFTs) and TON DNS operations (resolving DNS names to addresses, registering domains, managing DNS records). Implements tools for NFT metadata retrieval, transfer execution, and DNS name resolution. All operations are executed via the TON blockchain with transaction signing.
Unique: Provides native TON NFT and DNS tools integrated with the wallet system, enabling autonomous NFT management and DNS operations without external APIs
vs alternatives: Most blockchain agents lack TON-specific NFT/DNS support; Teleton's built-in tools provide native TON ecosystem integration
Implements a Deals system that enables the agent to coordinate multi-step workflows involving multiple parties or transactions. A deal is a structured agreement with defined steps, participants, and conditions. The agent can propose deals, track their status, and execute steps as conditions are met. Deals are stored in the workspace and can be queried or modified via tools.
Unique: Provides a structured deals system for coordinating multi-step workflows with participant tracking and condition-based execution, enabling complex transaction orchestration
vs alternatives: Most agent frameworks lack built-in workflow coordination; Teleton's deals system provides out-of-the-box support for multi-step transactions

LangChain provides a Chain abstraction that sequences LLM calls, prompt templates, and tool invocations into directed acyclic graphs (DAGs). Chains support sequential execution (SequentialChain), conditional branching (RouterChain), and parallel execution patterns. The framework uses a Runnable interface that standardizes input/output contracts across all chain components, enabling composition via pipe operators and method chaining. This allows developers to build complex multi-step workflows without managing state manually.
Unique: Uses a unified Runnable interface across all components (LLMs, tools, retrievers, parsers) enabling composability via pipe operators, unlike frameworks that require separate orchestration layers for different component types. Supports both sync and async execution with identical code paths.
vs alternatives: More flexible than simple prompt chaining (like OpenAI's function calling alone) because it abstracts orchestration logic, making chains reusable and testable; simpler than full workflow engines (Airflow, Prefect) because it's optimized for LLM-specific patterns rather than general data pipelines.
LangChain's PromptTemplate class provides structured prompt engineering with variable placeholders, automatic validation, and support for few-shot learning patterns. Templates use Jinja2-style syntax for variable substitution and support dynamic example selection via ExampleSelector. The framework includes specialized templates (ChatPromptTemplate for multi-turn conversations, FewShotPromptTemplate for in-context learning) that handle formatting differences across LLM types. This enables prompt reusability, version control, and systematic experimentation without string concatenation.
Unique: Provides first-class abstractions for few-shot learning (FewShotPromptTemplate) with pluggable ExampleSelector strategies, enabling dynamic example selection based on input similarity without requiring developers to implement selection logic. Separates system prompts, conversation history, and user input in ChatPromptTemplate, making multi-turn conversations composable.
LangChain scores higher at 41/100 vs teleton-agent at 31/100. However, teleton-agent offers a free tier which may be better for getting started.

vs alternatives: More structured than manual string formatting because it validates variable names and supports semantic example selection; more specialized than generic templating engines (Jinja2) because it understands LLM-specific patterns like chat message roles and few-shot formatting.
LangChain abstracts function calling across LLM providers by converting Python functions or Pydantic models into provider-specific schemas (OpenAI function_call, Anthropic tool_use, etc.). The framework automatically generates schemas, handles argument parsing, and routes calls to the correct provider. Developers define functions once and LangChain handles provider-specific formatting. This enables tool use without learning each provider's function calling API.
Unique: Automatically converts Python functions and Pydantic models into provider-specific function calling schemas (OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, etc.) and handles parsing and routing transparently. Developers define tools once and LangChain handles provider-specific formatting and execution.
vs alternatives: More portable than using provider SDKs directly because function definitions are provider-agnostic; more automated than manual schema management because schemas are generated from function signatures.
LangChain supports streaming LLM output at token granularity, enabling real-time user feedback as tokens are generated. The framework provides streaming iterators and async generators that yield tokens as they arrive from the LLM. Streaming is integrated into chains and agents, so developers can stream output from complex workflows without special handling. This enables responsive user experiences where output appears in real-time rather than waiting for full completion.
Unique: Integrates streaming at the framework level so chains and agents can stream output transparently without special handling. Provides both sync and async streaming iterators and handles provider-specific streaming formats uniformly.
vs alternatives: More integrated than provider-specific streaming APIs because streaming works across chains and agents; more responsive than buffering full output because tokens appear in real-time.
LangChain provides async/await support throughout the framework, enabling concurrent execution of LLM calls, chains, and agents. All major components (LLMs, chains, retrievers, agents) have async variants (e.g., arun() alongside run()). The framework uses asyncio for Python and native async/await for Node.js. This enables high-concurrency applications that can handle multiple requests simultaneously without blocking. Async execution is transparent; developers write the same code as sync but use async/await syntax.
Unique: Provides async/await support throughout the framework with parallel async implementations of all major components. Enables transparent concurrent execution without requiring developers to manage thread pools or explicit parallelization.
vs alternatives: More integrated than manual async management because async is built into the framework; more scalable than sync-only implementations because it enables handling multiple concurrent requests.
LangChain abstracts LLM APIs behind a common BaseLanguageModel interface, supporting OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, Hugging Face, Ollama, and 20+ other providers. The abstraction handles provider-specific details: token counting, streaming, function calling schemas, and cost tracking. Developers write LLM-agnostic code and swap providers via configuration. The framework includes built-in retry logic, rate limiting, and fallback chains for reliability. This enables portability and cost optimization without rewriting application logic.
Unique: Implements a unified BaseLanguageModel interface that abstracts away provider differences in token counting, streaming protocols, and function calling schemas. Includes built-in retry policies, rate limiting, and cost tracking at the framework level rather than requiring developers to implement these separately for each provider.
vs alternatives: More portable than using provider SDKs directly because swapping providers requires only configuration changes; more comprehensive than simple wrapper libraries because it handles streaming, retries, and cost tracking uniformly across 20+ providers.
LangChain provides a Retriever abstraction that enables RAG by connecting LLMs to external knowledge sources. The framework supports multiple retrieval strategies: vector similarity search (via VectorStore), BM25 keyword search, hybrid search, and custom retrievers. Documents are chunked, embedded, and stored in vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Chroma, FAISS, etc.). The RetrievalQA chain automatically retrieves relevant documents and passes them as context to the LLM. This enables LLMs to answer questions grounded in custom data without fine-tuning.
Unique: Provides a unified Retriever interface that abstracts different retrieval strategies (vector, keyword, hybrid, custom) and integrates seamlessly with LLM chains via RetrievalQA. Includes built-in document loaders for 50+ formats (PDF, HTML, Markdown, code files) and automatic chunking strategies, reducing boilerplate for document ingestion.
vs alternatives: More integrated than building RAG from scratch because document loading, chunking, embedding, and retrieval are unified in one framework; more flexible than specialized RAG platforms (Pinecone, Weaviate) because it supports multiple vector stores and custom retrieval logic.
LangChain's Agent abstraction enables autonomous task execution by combining LLMs with tools (functions, APIs, retrievers). The agent uses an action-observation loop: the LLM decides which tool to call based on the task, executes the tool, observes the result, and repeats until the task is complete. Agents support multiple reasoning strategies: ReAct (reasoning + acting), chain-of-thought, and tool-use patterns. The framework handles tool schema generation, argument parsing, and error recovery. This enables building autonomous systems that can decompose complex tasks without explicit step-by-step instructions.
Unique: Implements a generalized Agent interface that supports multiple reasoning strategies (ReAct, chain-of-thought, tool-use) and automatically handles tool schema generation, argument parsing, and error recovery. The action-observation loop is abstracted, allowing developers to focus on defining tools rather than implementing agent logic.
vs alternatives: More flexible than simple function calling (OpenAI's tool_choice) because it implements multi-step reasoning and tool sequencing; more accessible than building agents from scratch because it handles schema generation, parsing, and error recovery automatically.
