Choose between ChatGPT and Claude as the underlying AI model for queries. Allows users to leverage different model strengths for different tasks.
Sends text messages, media files, and formatted content to Telegram chats and channels through the Telegram Bot API. Implements message routing logic that resolves chat identifiers (numeric IDs, usernames, or channel handles) to API endpoints, handles message formatting (Markdown/HTML), and manages delivery confirmation through API response parsing. Supports batch message operations and message editing after delivery.
Unique: Wraps Telegram Bot API message endpoints as MCP tools, enabling LLM agents to send messages through a standardized tool-calling interface rather than direct API calls. Abstracts chat identifier resolution and message formatting into a single composable capability.
vs alternatives: Simpler integration than raw Telegram Bot API for MCP-based agents because it handles authentication and endpoint routing transparently, while maintaining full API feature support.
Retrieves message history from Telegram chats and channels by querying the Telegram Bot API for recent messages, with filtering by date range, sender, or message type. Implements pagination logic to handle large message sets and parses API responses into structured message objects containing sender info, timestamps, content, and media metadata. Supports reading from both private chats and public channels.
Unique: Exposes Telegram message retrieval as MCP tools with built-in pagination and filtering, allowing LLM agents to fetch and reason over chat history without managing API pagination or response parsing themselves. Structures raw API responses into agent-friendly formats.
vs alternatives: More accessible than direct Telegram Bot API calls for agents because it abstracts pagination and response normalization; simpler than building a custom Telegram client library for basic history needs.
Integrates with Telegram's webhook system to receive real-time updates (messages, callbacks, edits) via HTTP POST requests. The MCP server can be configured to work with webhook-based bots (alternative to polling), receiving updates from Telegram's servers and routing them to connected LLM clients. Supports update filtering and acknowledgment.
Unique: Bridges Telegram's webhook system into MCP, enabling event-driven bot architectures. Handles webhook registration and update routing without requiring polling loops.
vs alternatives: Lower latency than polling because updates arrive immediately; more scalable than getUpdates polling because it eliminates constant API calls and reduces rate-limit pressure.
Translates Telegram Bot API errors and responses into structured MCP-compatible formats. The MCP server catches API failures (rate limits, invalid parameters, permission errors) and maps them to descriptive error objects that LLMs can reason about. Implements retry logic for transient failures and provides actionable error messages.
Unique: Implements error mapping layer that translates raw Telegram API errors into LLM-friendly error objects. Provides structured error information that LLMs can use for decision-making and recovery.
vs alternatives: More actionable than raw API errors because it provides context and recovery suggestions; more reliable than ignoring errors because it enables LLM agents to handle failures intelligently.
Registers custom bot commands (e.g., /start, /help, /custom) and routes incoming Telegram messages containing those commands to handler functions. Implements command parsing logic that extracts command names and arguments from message text, matches them against registered handlers, and invokes the appropriate handler with parsed parameters. Supports command help text generation and command discovery via /help.
Unique: Provides MCP-compatible command registration and dispatch, allowing agents to define Telegram bot commands as MCP tools rather than managing raw message parsing. Decouples command definition from message handling logic.
vs alternatives: Cleaner than raw message event handling because it abstracts command parsing and routing; more flexible than hardcoded command lists because handlers can be registered dynamically at runtime.
Fetches metadata about Telegram chats and channels including member counts, titles, descriptions, pinned messages, and permissions. Queries the Telegram Bot API for chat information and parses responses into structured objects. Supports both private chats and public channels, with different metadata availability depending on bot permissions and chat type.
Unique: Exposes Telegram chat metadata as queryable MCP tools, allowing agents to inspect chat state and permissions without direct API calls. Structures metadata into agent-friendly formats with permission flags.
vs alternatives: More convenient than raw API calls for agents because it abstracts permission checking and response normalization; enables agents to make permission-aware decisions before attempting actions.
Retrieves information about Telegram users and chat members including usernames, first/last names, profile pictures, and member status (admin, restricted, etc.). Queries the Telegram Bot API for user objects and member information, with support for looking up users by ID or username. Returns structured user profiles with permission and status flags.
Unique: Provides user and member lookup as MCP tools with structured output, enabling agents to make permission-aware and user-aware decisions. Abstracts API response parsing and permission flag interpretation.
vs alternatives: Simpler than raw API calls for agents because it returns normalized user objects with permission flags; enables agents to check user status without managing API response structure.
Edits or deletes previously sent messages in Telegram chats by message ID. Implements message lifecycle management through Telegram Bot API endpoints, supporting text content updates, media replacement, and inline keyboard modifications. Handles permission checks and error cases (e.g., message too old to edit, insufficient permissions).
Unique: Exposes message editing and deletion as MCP tools with built-in permission and time-window validation, allowing agents to manage message state without directly handling API constraints. Abstracts 48-hour edit window checks.
vs alternatives: More agent-friendly than raw API calls because it validates edit eligibility before attempting operations; enables agents to implement message lifecycle patterns without manual constraint checking.
