Bot API 9.6

🦀 Managed Bots
Manager bots are used to bootstrap and control other bots on behalf of their owners – easily orchestrating any number of AI agents, Business Accounts and custom tools.
• Out of the box, manager bots can prompt users to create a bot in one tap and easily fetch their token to start piloting them.

📊 Poll Revolution
• Polls now support multiple correct answers, re-issuing votes, hidden results and richly formatted descriptions.
• Poll options now have persistent ids and can be shuffled or dynamically added by users.
• Bots can now additionally reply to a specific poll option.

General
• Mini Apps can now natively request users, chats and managed bots in one tap via prepared keyboard buttons.
• Expanded support for date and time entities in checklists, quotes and gift texts.

• And more, see the full changelog for details:
