Connect AI assistants to Telegram to access chats, messages, and automate actions.
This is an open-source MIT-licensed project, but it explicitly claims “full access” to personal Telegram chats and messages via MTProto as a userbot, which implies broad data access. The materials omit credential and endpoint details and provide no README, so transparency is limited; considering the open-source status, the overall rating is caution rather than outright high risk.
The description says it operates as a Telegram userbot over MTProto, which typically implies Telegram account authentication material is needed; however, the provided metadata says “no credentials,” creating a transparency gap. If session or login credentials are actually used, they are highly sensitive because leakage could expose the user's Telegram account.
Its core function is to connect to Telegram and send/receive chat data, so message content and metadata handled by the tool would be transmitted to Telegram services. The materials do not specify remote endpoints or clarify whether it only contacts Telegram or any additional services, leaving egress scope underdocumented.
The system marks it as executes-code, meaning the MCP server runs locally as a process; this is a normal capability for MCP tools. The provided materials do not show requests for unusual system privileges or clearly unrelated high-risk execution behavior, so this is best rated as caution.
The description explicitly says it enables “full access” to personal chats, messages, and more, indicating broad read/write or operational access to data in the user's Telegram account. This scope is related to its stated purpose rather than clearly excessive, but it is highly sensitive because it involves private communications.
Positive factors: it has a public GitHub repository and an MIT open-source license, making code review possible. Negative factors: it comes from a third-party registry, has 0 stars, unknown maintenance status, and no README in the materials, so the real implementation and dependency risks are not well established.
