Telegram integration enabled by default may cause noisy failures without credentials
lowmaintainabilitymedium
- aeon.yml
Enabling Telegram polling by default can lead to periodic failed polls or error spam in forks/environments where Telegram credentials are not configured, increasing operator noise and obscuring real issues.
Recommendation
Default telegram.enabled to false in the template, or clearly document that credentials must be configured if left enabled. Alternatively, gate startup on presence of required secrets and degrade gracefully without noisy logs.
