From the project README

Telegram MCP Server

This project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables sending Telegram messages through AI assistants like Claude Desktop.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a system that lets AI apps, like Claude Desktop, connect to external tools and data sources. It gives a clear and safe way for AI assistants to work with local services and APIs while keeping the user in control.

Setup

  1. Install dependencies:
npm install
  1. Build the project:
npm run build

Configuration

The server requires two environment variables to be set:

  • TELEGRAM_TOKEN: Your Telegram Bot API token
  • CHAT_ID: The ID of the Telegram chat where messages will be sent

These can be configured in your .cursor/mcp.json file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "telegram": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["./dist/mcp-server.js"],
      "env": {
        "TELEGRAM_TOKEN": "your-telegram-bot-token",
        "CHAT_ID": "your-chat-id"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

send_telegram_message

Sends a message to the configured Telegram chat.

Parameters:

  • message (string): The message text to send

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
