BetterBot

A Telegram bot for editing the Better Life SG website and Memoraiz app frontend. Fork of CodeAnywhere — shares the core Copilot SDK framework and only customises instance.py and tools/site_editing/.

How it works

User sends a message to the Telegram bot (e.g. "Change the phone number to 91234567")
BetterBot uses the CodeAnywhere Copilot SDK framework with site-editing tools
Tools list / read / write files and automatically commit + push to git

Projects

Key	What it manages	Mount path
`betterlifesg`	Static HTML site (Tailwind CSS via CDN)	`/repo/betterlifesg/site`
`memoraiz`	React 19 + Vite 6 frontend	`/repo/memoraiz/frontend`

Stack

Python 3.12 + CodeAnywhere framework (Copilot SDK, python-telegram-bot)
Runs on RackNerd
Forgejo repo: andre/betterbot

Fork relationship

BetterBot shares all framework files with CodeAnywhere. The only betterbot-specific files are:

File	Purpose
`instance.py`	Bot identity, system prompt, feature flags, tool registration
`tools/site_editing/`	list_files / read_file / write_file with auto git push
`.env`	Non-secret config (model defaults, site paths)
`compose/`	Docker compose for RackNerd with site-dir mounts
`scripts/deploy-betterbot.sh`	Deploy script targeting RackNerd + Infisical

Deploys on RackNerd pull from the BetterBot Forgejo repo only. They do not pull directly from CodeAnywhere during deploy.

If CodeAnywhere framework files change, sync those changes into this repo first, commit them here, and then deploy BetterBot from its own master branch.

ssh racknerd bash /opt/src/betterbot/scripts/deploy-betterbot.sh
