Install
uvx telegram-mcpRequired environment variables
TELEGRAM_PROXY_SECRETSet in your MCP configclaude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"chigwell-telegram-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"telegram-mcp"
],
"env": {
"TELEGRAM_PROXY_SECRET": "<YOUR_TELEGRAM_PROXY_SECRET>"
}
}
}
}Add this to your Claude Desktop config file. Find it at ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS.
What this does
chigwell/telegram-mcp exposes a set of tools to Claude over the Model Context Protocol. After you add it to claude_desktop_config.json (snippet above) and restart Claude Desktop, those tools become callable inside any conversation. That makes it useful when you want Claude to reach into external HTTP APIs without copy-pasting context every turn.
Requirements
This server needs the following environment variables to be set before it can run:
TELEGRAM_PROXY_SECRET
Set these via the env object in your MCP config (see claude_desktop_config.json snippet above).
Common use cases
- •Call REST or GraphQL endpoints against an authenticated upstream service
- •Translate between Claude's natural-language requests and a structured API
- •Compose several API calls in a single Claude turn (read user → fetch order → annotate)
