Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| search_messages_globallyA | Search all Telegram chats at once (not scoped to one chat). Comma-separated query terms; optional filters by date, chat kind, and public username. Success: message list and metadata dict. Global search ignores include_total_count. Full documentation: https://github.com/leshchenko1979/fast-mcp-telegram/blob/main/docs/Tools-Reference.md |
| get_messagesA | Read or search messages in one chat: browse latest, search text, fetch by ids, or load replies to a message (comments, forum topics, threads). Do not combine message_ids with query or reply_to_id. Success: messages, has_more, optional total_count and discussion fields. Full documentation: https://github.com/leshchenko1979/fast-mcp-telegram/blob/main/docs/Tools-Reference.md |
| send_messageA | Send text and optional file attachments to a Telegram chat. Supports reply-to (including forum topics and channel discussion groups), auto-detected or explicit parse_mode (markdown/html), and file attachments as http(s) URLs, local paths, or data: URIs. When files are provided, the message text becomes a caption. For channel posts with reply_to_id, automatically posts in the linked discussion group. Success: dict with message_id, date, chat, text, status='sent', and sender info. Error: dict with ok=false and error string. Use send_message to create new messages; use edit_message to modify existing ones. Use send_message_to_phone when targeting a phone number instead of a chat_id. Full documentation: https://github.com/leshchenko1979/fast-mcp-telegram/blob/main/docs/Tools-Reference.md |
| edit_messageA | Replace the text of an existing message in a Telegram chat. Only works on messages sent by the authenticated account. Cannot edit media or other message attributes — text only. Success: dict with message_id, date, chat, text, status='edited', and edit_date. Error: dict with ok=false and error string (e.g. message not found or not editable). Use edit_message to update a previously sent message; use send_message to create new ones. Full documentation: https://github.com/leshchenko1979/fast-mcp-telegram/blob/main/docs/Tools-Reference.md |
| find_chatsA | Find users/groups/channels by name, username, or phone. Global search (query required) searches all Telegram; with min_date, max_date, or filter, search uses dialog list or a named filter; include_peers filters use last-activity from GetPeerDialogs; flag-based filters use dialog list dates. Success: dict with key chats (list of chat objects). Full documentation: https://github.com/leshchenko1979/fast-mcp-telegram/blob/main/docs/Tools-Reference.md |
| get_chat_infoA | Load profile and metadata for one user, bot, group, or channel. Success: info dict; forum chats may include topics up to topics_limit. Full documentation: https://github.com/leshchenko1979/fast-mcp-telegram/blob/main/docs/Tools-Reference.md |
