Why this helps
Repeated summaries can bury the current picture and make a busy chat harder to scan.
- Keep a compact overview in a known chat location.
- Reflect newly collected references in the summary.
- Reduce the need to repeat background in team conversations.

- 1Connect Are.na and Telegram once in Notis.

- 3Ask Notis to summarize recent additions from a named Are.na channel and update a bot-sent Telegram message with the refreshed context.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real channel and an existing bot-sent message.
