Splitter Description:

The splitter divides a long Telegram HTML message into smaller chunks, each no longer than 4000 characters. It attempts to cut at optimal points to avoid breaking HTML tags or words awkwardly. It looks for closing tags like </a>, </b>, </code>, and natural breaks like newlines or punctuation to split cleanly. If no suitable break point is found, it cuts at the maximum length.

It also ensures that any opened HTML tags before the cut are properly closed, so each chunk remains valid HTML.

This allows sending long formatted Telegram messages without exceeding Telegram’s message length limits, while preserving formatting.
