Gishen Dispatch Bot

Telegram bot for drivers / riders. Replaces a dedicated rider mobile app for v1.

When Ops assigns a trip on the Admin Dispatch Board, this bot pushes the trip manifest to the driver’s Telegram chat, collects status updates via inline buttons, and captures proof of delivery (photo + recipient name). Status writes back to the shared backend so the Dispatch Board and customer order tracking stay in sync.

Docs

Doc Purpose
docs/FEATURE_BRIEF.md What this bot does (acceptance inventory)
docs/BACKEND_SPEC.md Living backend needs: events, endpoints, payloads, auth

Standing rule — backend spec

Whenever we add or finalize anything in this repo (feature, flow change, scaffold, payload tweak), update docs/BACKEND_SPEC.md in the same change set and append a changelog entry. If there is no new backend need, record no backend delta for that change so the sheet stays the single source of truth.

Stack (intended)

Layer Choice
Runtime Node.js
Bot framework grammY
Transport Telegram Bot API, webhook mode
Shared API One platform backend (not implemented in this repo)

Scaffolding comes after the backend spec sheet stabilizes with the other client repos.

In scope

  • Trip / manifest push on assign
  • Inline status: picked up → en route → arrived → delivered / failed
  • Proof of delivery (photo + recipient name)
  • Real-time status write-back (via shared backend)
  • Driver identity = Telegram account, enrolled by Ops (no separate login)

Out of scope

  • Admin Dispatch Board UI (Admin Console)
  • Customer Telegram notifications / Mini App (Ecom)
  • Health/medical modules, community, AI Phase 2+ (platform exclusions)
  • Continuous live GPS heartbeat in v1 (poor fit for chat UX; see open items in the backend spec)
