Bot Commands
Every command the Telegram and Discord bots take, what each one does, and the two places the two bots genuinely differ.
Once a chat is connected, these are everything you can send it. /help in the chat prints the same list, in whichever language the bot is set to.
The commands
| Command | Does | Telegram | Discord |
|---|---|---|---|
/briefing |
Send your top stories right now | ✓ | ✓ |
/radar |
What several of your sources are converging on | ✓ | ✓ |
/ask <question> |
Ask about the news, or say how to tune your feed | — | ✓ |
/frequency |
Change how often it messages you | ✓ | ✓ |
/time |
Change what time of day it sends | ✓ | ✓ |
/language |
Change the language it writes in | ✓ | ✓ |
/reset |
Start a fresh conversation | ✓ | ✓ |
/help |
List these commands | ✓ | ✓ |
/unlink |
Disconnect this chat from Feedpik | ✓ | ✓ |
/link is not in the list on purpose — it is how you connect, so by the time you can read any of this it has already been used.
The two real differences
/ask is Discord-only. On Telegram you talk to the bot by just typing; there is no command to wrap it in. Discord needs the slash command because a plain message in a channel is not addressed to anything in particular.
/unlink means slightly different things. A Telegram binding is a chat — unlinking disconnects that conversation, and you can have Feedpik in more than one. A Discord binding is an account, so unlinking disconnects you from Feedpik on Discord entirely.
Commands worth knowing properly
/briefing and /radar are on-demand. They send now, regardless of your schedule, and they are the reason turning the schedule off does not mean losing the bot. Set frequency to off and pull a briefing when you actually want one.
/reset clears the conversation, not your settings. Your ranking, schedule and language survive it. Use it when the bot has lost the thread of a chat, not when you want to start over as a user.
/frequency, /time and /language are pickers, not commands that take arguments. Send the command and choose from what it offers. See digest scheduling.
Talking to it in plain words
Beyond the commands, the bot takes ordinary sentences — on Telegram directly, on Discord through /ask:
less crypto, more chip supply
It proposes a ranking change and you tap Apply. Nothing is written until you do, and everything applied is a version you can roll back in the reader. Same mechanism as the assistant, different window.
👍 and 👎 on a story go straight into your ranking as well, and are the cheapest feedback there is — no command, no typing.
Chat costs 2 credits a message. Commands that only fetch something cost nothing beyond the digest itself.
If something looks wrong
A command does nothing — check it exists on your platform. /ask on Telegram is the common one; type the question directly instead.
The bot replies in the wrong language — /language. It is set per binding, so a second chat has its own.
Commands work but nothing arrives on schedule — frequency is probably off, or the send time has not come round yet. /frequency shows the current setting.
It stopped responding entirely — the binding may have been removed, or the plan dropped below Pro. Reconnect from the News Bot page.
