Telegram Notify MCP
A dead-simple MCP server with one job: send AI agent progress back to you on Telegram.
That's it. No chat management, no group administration, no inline queries. Just notifications — as text, images, or files.
You kick off an agent, walk away, and get a Telegram message when it's done (or while it's working). Nothing more, nothing less.
Quick Start
1. Create a Telegram Bot
- Message @BotFather on Telegram
- Send
/newbotand follow the prompts - Copy the bot token
2. Start a chat with your bot
Find your bot on Telegram and send /start. This is required so the bot can discover your chat ID.
3. Add to your MCP client
Claude Code
claude mcp add telegram -e TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=your-token -e TELEGRAM_USERNAME=your-username -- npx @parthj/telegram-notify-mcp

How It Works
- On the first tool call, the server resolves your username to a chat ID via the Telegram Bot API's
getUpdates - Sending
/startto the bot is required — Telegram bots can only message users who have initiated a conversation - The chat ID is cached for the lifetime of the process
Development
git clone https://github.com/ParthJadhav/telegram-notify-mcp.git
