Problem
When using ZeroClaw through Telegram, users cannot see what the agent is doing internally while a request is running. The Telegram conversation appears silent until the final response, which makes long-running searches and tool calls look stalled.
Expected behavior
Provide optional, user-facing progress updates in Telegram, such as that the agent is thinking, searching, calling a tool, waiting for approval, or retrying. Updates should be concise, rate-limited, and editable or coalesced into one status message to avoid spam.
This request is for operational progress and lifecycle status, not raw private chain-of-thought or hidden reasoning.
Context
The lack of progress visibility is especially noticeable during browser/MCP job searches. A configuration option to enable or disable Telegram progress updates would be useful, with the current behavior retained as the default if compatibility is a concern.
