Common questions

Is Telegram MCP by InsightfulPipe safe?

It passed 5 of 5 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 32 days ago, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 21 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT Business and above.

What can I use instead?

Connect as Read-only or Read & Write. A read-only connection can only enable read actions.
Destructive actions stay off by default. Actions such as deletes are disabled until an admin enables them.
Team access per account. Restricted team members only use the accounts they are granted, with the read actions enabled on them.
