Fast Mcp Telegram
Wire Claude Code or Cursor to your Telegram account so the agent can search chats and send messages during builds, launches, and support workflows.
Overview
Fast MCP Telegram is an MCP server for the Build phase that connects your agent to Telegram search and outbound messaging using your API credentials and saved session.
What is this MCP server?
- Search Telegram history and metadata from the agent via MCP tools
- Send messages through your authenticated Telegram session
- Stdio default plus http-no-auth and http-auth server modes for local vs deployed agents
- Configurable session directory (default ~/.config/fast-mcp-telegram/)
- PyPI package fast-mcp-telegram v0.5.0 with required API_ID and API_HASH
- Server version 0.5.0 on PyPI (package id fast-mcp-telegram)
- Three SERVER_MODE choices: stdio, http-no-auth, http-auth
- Two required secrets/env vars: API_ID and API_HASH
Community signal: 47 GitHub stars.
What problem does it solve?
Agents cannot see your real Telegram threads or send on your behalf unless you bolt on a custom API integration and session management.
Who is it for?
Indie builders who use Telegram for community or support and want Claude Code or Cursor to pull chat context and draft sends in one workflow.
Skip if: Teams that need official Bot API-only bots, bulk spam, or Telegram access without managing user API keys and session files.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After install, your agent can search Telegram and send messages through MCP while you control credentials, session path, and stdio versus HTTP exposure.
- MCP tools for Telegram search and messaging backed by your session
- Persistent session under SESSION_DIR or default ~/.config/fast-mcp-telegram/
- Optional HTTP deployment with http-no-auth or http-auth modes

Journey fit
Telegram is an external channel you connect while building agent tooling and product integrations, not a one-off marketing task. It is a stdio/http MCP bridge to the Telegram Client API—classic third-party integration work in the build phase.
How it compares
Telegram user-API MCP bridge, not a Telegram Bot skill or a hosted inbox product.
