Template Description
This description details the template's purpose, how it works, and its key features. You can copy and use it directly.
Overview
This is a powerful n8n "meta-workflow" that acts as a Supervisor. Through a simple Telegram bot, you can dynamically create, manage, and delete countless independent, AI-driven market monitoring agents (Watchdogs).
This template is a perfect implementation of the "Workflowception" (workflow managing workflows) concept in n8n, showcasing how to achieve ultimate automation by leveraging the n8n API.
How It Works ?
Telegram Bot Interface:
Execute all operations by sending commands to your own Telegram Bot:
/add SYMBOL INTERVAL PROMPT: Add a new monitoring task.
/delete SYMBOL: Delete an existing monitoring task.
/list: List all currently running monitoring tasks.
/help: Get help information.

Dynamic Workflow Management:
Upon receiving an /add command, the Supervisor system reads a "Watchdog" template, fills in your provided parameters (like trading pair and time interval), and then automatically creates a brand new, independent workflow via the n8n API and activates it.
Persistent Storage:
All monitoring tasks are stored in a PostgreSQL database, ensuring your configurations are safe even if n8n restarts. The ID of each newly created workflow is also written back to the database to facilitate future deletion operations.
AI-Powered Analysis:
Each created "Watchdog" workflow runs on schedule, automatically fetches the latest candlestick chart, and calls a multimodal AI model (Gemini). It sends both the chart image and your custom text-based conditions (e.g., "breakout above previous high on high volume" or "break below 4-hour MA20") to the AI for analysis, enabling truly intelligent chart interpretation and alert triggering.
Key Features
Workflowception: A prime example of one workflow using an API to create, activate, and delete other workflows.
Full Control via Telegram: Manage your monitoring bots from anywhere, anytime, without needing to log into the n8n interface.
AI Visual Analysis: Move beyond simple price alerts. Let an AI "read" the charts for you to enable complex, pattern-based, and indicator-based intelligent alerts.
Persistent & Extensible: Built on PostgreSQL for stability and reliability. You can easily add more custom commands.
