📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis PR transforms a Telegram bot into a video downloader. It removes command handlers and implements a single catch-all message handler that detects HTTP links, downloads videos using yt-dlp, sends them back to users, and handles errors appropriately. Changes

- Around line 5-7: Check that TOKEN (set from os.getenv("TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN"))
is not None/empty before constructing telebot.TeleBot; if missing, log or print
a clear error and exit (e.g., raise SystemExit or call sys.exit(1)) so
telebot.TeleBot(TOKEN) is never called with a None value. Update the
initialization flow around the TOKEN variable and the telebot.TeleBot(...) call
to perform this early validation and fail fast with a helpful message.
- Around line 9-12: The handler handle_message registered with
`@bot.message_handler`(func=lambda message: True) assumes message.text is always a
string, but message.text can be None for non-text updates; modify the handler to
either restrict the decorator to text-only messages (use content_types=['text']
instead of func=lambda message: True) or add a guard at the start of
handle_message that checks message.text is not None (e.g., if message.text is
None: return) before using "http" in message.text; reference handle_message,
`@bot.message_handler`, and message.text when applying the change.
- Around line 16-28: The code uses a fixed filename 'video.mp4' when creating
ydl_opts and downloading with yt_dlp.YoutubeDL, causing race conditions and
orphaned files; update the download/output filename to a unique per-request name
(e.g., incorporate message.message_id or a uuid) when building ydl_opts/outtmpl,
use that unique path for opening and passing to bot.send_video, and move the
os.remove cleanup into a finally block (or try/except/finally) around the
download and send operations so the temporary file is always removed even if
bot.send_video or download raises.
In `@requirements.txt`:
- Around line 1-2: requirements.txt lists python-telegram-bot but the code
imports telebot (used in main.py and commands.py) which is provided by

Add validation for missing TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN.
If the environment variable is not set, TOKEN will be None, and telebot.TeleBot(None) will fail at runtime with an unclear error. Validate the token early with a clear message.

message.text can be None for non-text messages, causing a crash.
The catch-all handler (func=lambda message: True) receives all message types (photos, stickers, voice, etc.). For these, message.text is None, and if "http" in text will raise TypeError: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable.

Race condition: Fixed filename video.mp4 will cause conflicts with concurrent users.
When multiple users send links simultaneously, they will overwrite each other's downloaded files, leading to corrupted or swapped videos. Use a unique filename per request (e.g., using message.message_id or uuid).
Additionally, file cleanup should be in a finally block to avoid orphaned files if send_video fails.

Replace python-telegram-bot with pyTelegramBotAPI in requirements.txt.
The code imports telebot (from main.py and commands.py), which is provided by the pyTelegramBotAPI package. The python-telegram-bot package provides different modules (telegram, telegram.ext) and is not used anywhere in the codebase. The bot will fail immediately with an ImportError when trying to import telebot.
