Telegram bot ends unexpectedly – Telegram API

Trying to make my first telegram bot, in all examples and instructions it looks very simple and easy to repeat. However, my bot doesn’t work at all. Firstly, I am from Russia and telegram api is blocked, so I need to use proxy. Took one from https://www.socks-proxy.net/. Got token from BotFather. Now when I run my script telegraf.js:

const Telegraf = require('telegraf');
const SocksAgent = require('socks5-https-client/lib/Agent');
const socksAgent = new SocksAgent({
   socksHost: '103.206.97.70',
   socksPort: 4145,
});
const bot = new Telegraf(MY_TOKEN, {
telegram: {
    agent: socksAgent,
}
});
bot.hears('hi', ctx => {
   return ctx.reply('Hey!');
});
bot.startPolling();

nothing happens and program finishedenter image description here.

I understand that problem is in my proxy configuration, but can’t understand what exactly wrong.

    The problem was in proxy. I used https-proxy-agent instead of socks5-https-client

    import Telegraf from 'telegraf';
import config from 'config';
import HttpsProxyAgent from 'https-proxy-agent';

const TOKEN = config.get('token');
const proxy = config.get('proxy');

const bot = new Telegraf(TOKEN, {
    telegram: {
        agent: new HttpsProxyAgent({
            host: proxy.host,
            port: proxy.port
        })
    },
});

bot.hears('hi', ctx => {
    return ctx.reply('Hey!');
});
bot.startPolling();

    const { Telegraf } = require('telegraf')
const { SocksProxyAgent } = require('socks-proxy-agent');


const bot = new Telegraf('YOUR BOT API', {
    telegram: {
        agent: new SocksProxyAgent('socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050')
    },
});


bot.hears('hi', ctx => {
    return ctx.reply("HEY!");
});
bot.startPolling();
