Why did I need okhttp in my programm?
I tried to make a telegram bot with a java framework on top, but the framework wasn't ment to be used in an android app (https://github.com/rubenlagus/TelegramBots/issues/1012), so I was forced to use okhttp and write my own POST/GET requests.

A hackable AI assistant using a single SQLite table and a handful of cron jobs
*Update*: I tried writing a little Python code to read and write from a mailbox, reading worked great, but writing an email had the email disappear to some filter or spam or something somewhere. I've got to figure out where it went, but this is the warning that some people had about not trusting a messaging protocol (email in this case) when you can't control the servers. Messages can disappear.
I read that [Mailgun](https://www.mailgun.com/) might improve this. Haven't tried it yet.
Other alternatives for messages that I haven't tried. My requirement is to be able to send messages and send/receive on my mobile device. I do not want to write a mobile app.

Telegram OAuth Authorization for Your Site
You can make authorization via Telegram another way. It works. But today we want to do the classic OAuth Authorization. Before you begin, you need to create a Telegram bot and obtain your bot token. You can do this in @BotFather in Telegram. For more information on initiating a bot, read the Telegram Bot API documentation: https://core.telegram.org/bots

Is my idea possible to implement?
Absolutely possible. Here's the github page to the Telegram bot API. You would just need to check for incoming messages, check the body of the message for a word or phrase, and then send a message back with a photo or gif and an encouraging message.

A simple forwarder from WhatsApp to Telegram written in Go
Telegram has a bot API server that provides API to control the bots and get updates. Their own instance has some restrictions like you cannot download files bigger than 20MB. So, using a self hosted bot API server, you can overcome those limits.
