Follow-ups from deploying the proxy (#1):

Dedicated Telegram bot. The proxy currently borrows an existing bridge bot's token. Create a bot with @BotFather, put its token in the proxy's env file, restart the service. The proxy only calls getStickerSet and getFile (never getUpdates), so sharing is safe meanwhile, but a revoke of one shouldn't break the other.
Klipy API key so GIF search works (the client only uses the Klipy routes). Add KLIPY_API_KEY to the env file and restart.
Delete a stray DNS record proxy.nether.services.nether.im (CNAME to the tunnel). cloudflared tunnel route dns created it because its credentials are scoped to the nether.im zone; cloudflared can't delete records, so this needs the Cloudflare dashboard. Harmless meanwhile: no ingress rule matches it, so it returns 404.
Optional: add a basic uptime check for https://proxy.nether.im/healthz to the existing monitoring.

Filed with LLM assistance. This is a fork-only issue; never refile it on Commet's tracker.

Create a bot with @BotFather, put its token in the proxy's env file, restart the service.
