Manual Mode

Manual Mode is the opt-in alternative to Silent Auto-Track. When someone pastes a contract address in the group, Prysm replies with a preview card showing the token’s chain, symbol, market cap, and explorer/chart links — plus an explicit Add to Watchlist button. Nothing enters the group’s watchlist until someone taps that button.

In Silent Auto-Track (the default), pasted contracts are silently captured into a separate auto-track list with a TTL. In Manual Mode, the bot is loud: every paste becomes a visible message with an add button, and the group’s main watchlist only grows when a member explicitly confirms.

The flow is the same one a user gets in DM when they paste a contract — preview first, add second.

Manual Mode is the right fit for small or low-traffic groups where you want to discuss every paste before tracking it, and for curated watchlists where the admin wants explicit control over what lands on /list. If your group is high-traffic and you don’t want the bot replying to every contract, stay on Silent Auto-Track.

Two paths flip the group out of Silent Auto-Track. Both require an admin — non-admins get a “Only group admins can configure settings” notice when they try.

  1. Welcome message button. When the bot first joins the group, it posts a welcome message with a 🔍 Switch to Manual Mode inline button. Tap it once and the group is in Manual Mode.

  2. /settings → Tracking → Silent Auto-Track. Run /settings in the group, open 🔍 Tracking, then 🔇 Silent Auto-Track, and tap the ✅ Enabled button to flip it to ❌ Disabled. The group is now in Manual Mode.

After the switch, pastes start producing preview cards instead of being silently captured.

In Manual Mode, after a member pastes a single contract, the bot deletes the paste (if it has permission) and replies with a card like this:

🔹 PEPE  Pepe

Market Cap: $5.2M

📊 Etherscan
📊 DexScreener

Would you like to add this token to this group's watchlist?

[✅ Add to Watchlist] [❌ Cancel]

The chain emoji and the ”📊” markers are real custom emojis in Telegram — they render in colour in the client, not as the fallback glyphs shown above. Etherscan and DexScreener are tappable links. The chart provider on the second link follows the group’s /settings preference (DexScreener by default; DexTools, Defined, or GMGN if set).

If the token is already on the group’s watchlist, the footer changes to “This token is already in this group’s watchlist.” and the buttons swap to 🔔 Set Alert and 🗑️ Remove.

Anyone in the group. Adding a token is not admin-gated — any member who sees the preview card can confirm it. The only admin-restricted actions on the group side are configuration toggles (the welcome-message switch, /settings panels, and the silent-auto-track flip).

Drop several contracts in one message — newline- or comma-separated — and Prysm skips the preview entirely. It runs the bulk-add flow instead: validates each contract in turn (up to 20 at a time, anything past 20 is skipped, plus anything that would exceed the group’s token cap), then replies with a single summary:

📦 Bulk Add Complete
✅ Added: 3
❌ Failed: 1

Added:
• PEPE
• WIF
• BONK

Failed:
• 0x1234...: Invalid

There’s no per-contract preview in bulk mode — the trade-off is that you can’t reject individual entries from the batch. If you need that, paste contracts one at a time so each gets its own preview card.

Run /settings in the group, open 🔍 Tracking → 🔇 Silent Auto-Track, and tap ❌ Disabled to flip it back to ✅ Enabled. Pastes stop producing preview cards immediately and silent capture resumes.
