+# Keyboard Reset Bot
+
+A minimal Telegram bot that removes reply keyboard buttons in Telegram group chats by sending a keyboard reset message.
+
+## Features
+
+- Works only in group chats and supergroups
+- Single command: `/resetkeyboard`
+- Admin-only authorization
+- Automatically removes its confirmation message after 7 seconds
+- Stateless (no database, no data storage)
+
+## Setup
+
+1. **Get a Bot Token**
+   - Talk to [@BotFather](https://t.me/botfather) on Telegram
+   - Create a new bot with `/newbot`
+   - Copy the bot token
+
+2. **Install Dependencies**
+   ```bash
+   npm install
+   ```
+
+3. **Configure Environment**
+   - Copy `.env.example` to `.env`
+   - Add your bot token:
+     ```
+     BOT_TOKEN=your_bot_token_here
+     ```
+
+4. **Run the Bot**
+   ```bash
+   npm start
+   ```
+
+## Usage
+
+1. Add the bot to your Telegram group
+2. Grant the bot "Read messages" permission (and optionally "Delete messages" for cleanup)
+3. An admin can use `/resetkeyboard` to remove all reply keyboards in the group
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Node.js 14+ (ES modules support)
+- Bot permissions: "Read messages" (required), "Delete messages" (optional)
+
+## How It Works
+
+When an admin sends `/resetkeyboard` in a group:
+1. The bot verifies the user is an administrator
+2. Sends a message with `ReplyKeyboardRemove` (selective: false)
+3. This resets reply keyboards for all users who receive the message
+4. The bot deletes its own message after 7 seconds
+
+## Notes
+
+- The bot ignores private chats
+- Only group administrators can use the command
+- The bot is stateless and does not store any data
+- If another bot sends a keyboard after reset, it will appear again (expected behavior)
+
