You can configure several channels at the same time, letting the same AI assistant serve different platforms:

  - web         # backup access

Channel isolation

Different channels can use different configurations:

Feishu Work groups GPT-4 (high quality)
Telegram Personal Gemini (free)
Web Debugging Local model

Security recommendations

  1. Do not expose the admin port to the public internet
  2. Use HTTPS encryption
  3. Set an access password
  4. Rotate API keys regularly
