Automated Telegram Infrastructure

Conversational Admin & Diagnostic Telegram Bots

Live automated microservices powering instant bus schedule broadcasts, natural-language parsing, and 24/7 synthetic health monitoring.

Exam Bus & Broadcast Notification Bot

@budbuddybot • Operational Admin Flow

Admin AI Bot

Campus administrators compose natural-language announcements directly in Telegram. The bot parses complex schedules, formats verified payload data, and generates a one-time cryptographic confirmation link before broadcasting.

1
Conversational Schedule Parsing

Admin types plain instructions; Gemini AI extracts bus numbers (e.g., S17, S19), departure hours (7:00 AM), routes (Irongmara), and return timings.

2
Tokenized 15-Min Authorization Link

Generates a cryptographically signed 15-minute token link on admin.busbuddy-aus.in preventing rogue broadcasts.

3
Test Preview & Multi-Platform Push

Admins preview test pushes on developer devices before instantly broadcasting high-priority alerts to all Assam University students via FCM & APNs.

Provider lifted suspension; all systems normal

What Happened

On 6th December at 12:40 AM, BusBuddy experienced a complete backend service outage due to an automated policy violation flag by our cloud service provider. This suspension was triggered automatically by provider monitoring systems—not due to any manual action taken by our team. All backend APIs, live bus tracking, and notification services were temporarily interrupted.

Root Cause & Verified Clarifications

After continuous communication, architectural submissions, and technical verification directly with cloud engineering, we confirmed:

No cryptocurrency mining was running
No user data was compromised
No service accounts or credentials exposed
No malicious or unauthorized activity found

The suspension was caused by a false-positive detection by automated cloud monitoring systems, triggered by legitimate compute-heavy workloads such as backend batch jobs, image and document processing, and internal scheduled routines mistakenly classified as suspicious.

Proactive Resolution Within 49 Hours
  • • Single-handedly driven end-to-end communication with provider engineering.
  • • Provided comprehensive architectural documentation and service definitions.
  • • Swiftly fulfilled all verification requests and security reviews.
  • Reinstated on 9th Dec at 2:02 AM with complete system health restored.
Preventive Engineering Safeguards
  • • Restructured compute-heavy batch tasks into isolated workers.
  • • Enforced strict compute ceiling limits on background queues.
  • • Enhanced 24/7 proactive synthetic uptime alerts.
  • • Strengthened internal security and telemetry safeguards.

"it's good but live location of bus never worked in my phone,"

Developer Response (Harsh Anand)

Actually, it’s not implemented because it needed to be backed by the university for GPS information… so no live location is not a bug… it’s never been implemented.

Developer Response (Harsh Anand)

Since there are some internal delays in making things official, version 8.4.0 now allows students to share live Bus Location — fully community-driven.
