Telegram: every message delivered twice (auto-reply + bot display name duplicate) #100912

Description

@foxallhevendao-design

Describe the bug

Every assistant message in Telegram DMs appears twice:

  • Once as bot display name
  • Once as "OpenClaw" (session auto-reply)

message tool (action=send) works correctly — single delivery.

Environment

  • Version: OpenClaw 2026.6.11 (e085fa1)
  • Channel: Telegram polling (single bot, no webhook)
  • streaming.mode: tried off and partial — no effect
  • Single agent, single account

Expected

One assistant turn = one Telegram message.

Actual

Every message duplicates: session reply + bot name appear as two separate messages in chat. System gateway restart notifications also duplicate.
