Question 1

What is an MCP server, and how does it help?

Accepted Answer

An MCP server provides a standardized way for AI models (like Claude) to access external tools and data. In this case, it gives the AI secure access to your Telegram account to execute specific actions.

Question 2

What is the purpose of this tool?

Accepted Answer

This tool allows AI assistants to interact with Telegram through an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. It enables automated tasks like fetching messages, filtering content, and managing Telegram channels.

Question 3

What features are available for managing Telegram through the MCP server?

Accepted Answer

You can search for Telegram channels, retrieve messages from specific chats, filter messages using regex patterns, manage Telegram sessions, and authenticate with Telegram (including 2FA).

Question 4

Can I use this library without the MCP server?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Telegram client library can be used independently for custom Telegram interactions. See the example client (`client.js`) for usage.

Question 5

How do I set up and use this tool?

Accepted Answer

First, create a `.env` file with your Telegram API credentials. Install the dependencies with `npm install`, then start the MCP server using `npm start`.  Connect your AI assistant to the server's URL (e.g., `http://localhost:3000/mcp`).
