Telegram Mirror Bot — mirroring messages between chats

Bot functionality

The bot listens to messages in configured source chats/channels and forwards them to one or more target chats. This makes it easy to keep several groups or channels in sync without manual copying.

🔁 Mirroring messages between chats and channels.
🧱 Support for multiple source → target pairs.
🔍 Simple filtering by content type (text, media, etc.).
📜 Logging of important events (what was forwarded and where).
🔑 Configuration via environment variables or config file.
