Tool list

Not read: It could be started, but has not been tested; we call no server's tools for anything we publish. This is our limit, not the server's. So there is no tool-list size and no result from the three APIs.

Dead or stale signals

None found in the records we hold

Looked for and not found: deprecated in the registry; listed version cannot be installed or is withdrawn; repository link does not open; repository archived; no push in over 365 days. Each line is a dated fact from a public record. It does not say whether the server still works, and a record can change after the date shown.

Changes since the last refresh

Version 0.5.1 (published 2026-10-28) → 0.6.0 (published 2026-10-29), between the registry lists of 2026-10-29 and 2026-10-30.

The publisher’s GitHub release note for v0.6.0, published 2026-10-29.

Read the release note (the publisher’s text, shown as plain text, cut at 4,000 characters)
### Extraction

- Optional local PDF/DOCX text extraction through `telegram-context-mcp[extraction]`. `extract_attachment_text` reads one selected attachment and returns bounded Unicode text slices with source digests and physical PDF page references. Temporary results expire after 15 minutes and recheck source access and media identity on every read.
- Document parsing runs in a terminable subprocess with explicit input, page, text, expansion and time limits. Unsupported, encrypted, damaged and textless documents have distinct errors; DOCX body-only omissions and PDF pages without text are reported. `get_status` advertises availability without requiring the extra for ordinary tools.
- Recover structurally damaged PDFs with one bounded tolerant retry, reported as `DOCUMENT_RECOVERED`; accept PDF signatures within the first 1024 bytes and preserve original source digests and page provenance. Resolve DOCX main parts through OPC relationships and report macro-enabled DOCM as unsupported.
- Cap each expanded DOCX entry at 32 MiB and Linux worker address space at 1 GiB (or a stricter inherited limit). Allocation failures report `EXTRACTION_LIMIT_EXCEEDED`; Windows/macOS retain the existing time and document budgets without an OS memory cap.
- Avoid a redundant source request between attachment download and parsing while retaining fresh permission and attachment checks before delivery and on continuation.

### Authentication

- `telegram-mcp login --qr` displays a terminal QR for approval in the Telegram phone app, with optional 2FA and up to three expiring codes per invocation. It reuses the configured session, keeps the existing phone/code flow, and requires no external QR executable. Cancellation and failures release the session; rate limits report the wait without sleeping. Tokens and raw authorization responses are not printed.

### Distribution

- Optional Linux systemd user unit and installation/lifecycle guide for the shared HTTP server. It runs a persistent installed executable, restarts after crashes, and preserves the existing local authentication and session ownership model. The unit works with published 0.5.1; no package upgrade is required to adopt it.
- Preview Claude Desktop MCPB packaging with a shared-server `connect` launcher, external configuration-file selection, the matching release wheel and locked runtime dependencies. CI checks reproducible archives and isolated launches on Linux, Windows and macOS; GitHub releases include the bundle and SHA-256 separately from the PyPI artifacts. Initial Windows Desktop connection and catalog checks passed on Windows 11 25H2 with Claude Desktop 4.29.0. Additional Desktop UI/lifecycle scenarios and macOS Desktop remain manually unverified. See the [bundle guide](https://github.com/egor-fedorov/telegram-mcp/blob/main/docs/mcpb.md).

### Agent Skill

- Add an optional MIT-licensed `telegram-mcp` Agent Skill for source-linked reading, bounded digests, watch acknowledgement and selected attachments, with client installation instructions. It uses existing MCP tools and does not change server permissions or install automatically with the Python package.

### Dependencies

- Refresh the locked HTTP/SSE and TLS dependencies, including Starlette 1.10.0, sse-starlette 3.6.0, cryptography 50.0.2 and truststore 0.10.5, with supporting parser, IDNA and test-plugin updates. Dependency constraints and MCP contracts are unchanged.
- Update pytest-asyncio to 1.4.1 and group its test stack's `iniconfig` and `pluggy` updates with development tools in Dependabot.

### Upgrade and validation

- Upgrade the shared server and client proxies to 0.6.0, restart the server and refresh client tools. Existing sessions, permissions, checkpoints and subscriptions remain compatible; no state migration is required.
- For PDF/DOCX support, install or update the session-owning server with `uv tool install --python 3.12 'telegram-context-mcp[extraction]==0.6.0'` and enable `allow_attachment_downloads`. The ext

What it is

How do I add it to my client?

Config from the registry entry
  • No config: the PyPI package declares runtime arguments (options for the runner itself), and the registry documentation gives no rule for where they go.

Built from the server's registry entry with each client's documented format (checked 2026-10-14; the Cursor link and the VS Code command 2026-10-19; the MCP Inspector command 2026-10-21; Cline, Gemini CLI, OpenAI Codex and Zed 2026-10-26). Values in < > are yours to fill in; this page never contains a key. Where the server needs a setting the entry does not declare, it can still fail to start.

Does the registry listing match what we found?

Feature #6

The registry checks an entry when it is published (each new version), and nothing re-checks it on a schedule. A difference below is about the listing, not a judgement of the publisher.

Read from public records only: the registry entry, npm/PyPI, GitHub and advisory databases, checked 2026-10-30. No tool was called. Only “met” and “not met” are counted, so the total differs between servers; a check that does not apply or that we could not run is listed, never counted against it.
