"""Benthic Bot — Telegram chat agent sharing identity with the LN Agent.

Same brain as the ln-agent Benthic: Opus with full tool access, shared SQLite DB
for memory, same personality. Responds in the Leviathan Agents group to both
humans and bots.

Loop prevention:
- Rate limit: max 1 reply per 5 seconds per sender
- Max interaction depth: 5 replies in a thread before stopping
- Dedup: tracks responded message IDs
