Overview

What is MCP Telegram Server?

MCP Telegram Server is an MCP (Model Control Protocol) server that provides Telegram functionality through a clean API interface, including message search, sending, and chat management capabilities. It is built for MCP‑compatible environments like Cursor IDE and allows AI agents to interact with Telegram chats programmatically.

How to use MCP Telegram Server?

Clone the repository, install dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt, create a .env file with your Telegram API credentials, and run python setup_telegram.py to authenticate. Then start the server with mcp run <path>/server.py. For Cursor IDE, add the server to a .cursor/mcp.json file. After configuration, all Telegram tools are available inside the IDE.

Frequently asked questions

1

What are the prerequisites for running MCP Telegram Server?

You need Python 3.x, Telegram API credentials (API_ID, API_HASH, PHONE_NUMBER), and an MCP‑compatible environment (e.g., Cursor IDE).

2

How do I authenticate with Telegram?

Run `python setup_telegram.py` from the project root. This creates a session file (`mcp_telegram_search.session`) that stores your authenticated session.

3

What tools does the server expose?

It provides `search_messages`, `advanced_search`, `pattern_search`, `send_telegram_message`, `get_dialogs`, `get_statistics`, `generate_links`, and `export_data` – all via MCP tools.

4

Where is session and data stored locally?

An authenticated session file (`mcp_telegram_search.session`) is created in the project root. Logs are stored in the `logs/` directory.

5

How do I configure for Cursor IDE?

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file with the server definition (command pointing to `mcp run` and the server script path). The server will connect automatically when the project is opened in Cursor.
