Description from the maker (original English)
Telegram channel analytics and statistics for AI agents, pay-per-call in USDC via x402.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.
Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.
EVM_PRIVATE_KEY, SVM_PRIVATE_KEY, TELEMOST_BASE_URL, MAX_PAYMENT_USDC, SESSION_MAX_USDCValues marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

It passed 1 of 1 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.
You need to fill in: EVM_PRIVATE_KEY, SVM_PRIVATE_KEY
Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.2) reached the registry 4 months ago.
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 in developer mode.

GA4 MCP server for AI agents: schema discovery, server-side aggregation, analysis-ready defaults.

Pay-per-call Telegram analytics as MCP tools. Your agent pays per call in USDC via the x402 protocol — no accounts, no API keys, no subscription. Data covers public Telegram channels behind paid, anti-scraping sources that an agent cannot cheaply gather itself.
https://api.telemost.io, listed on x402scan and the x402 Bazaar.Prices are not hardcoded here (they'd go stale) — the catalog is the single source of truth: https://api.telemost.io/v1/catalog.
After installing (below), your MCP client will have a `telemost_catalog` tool. Call it first — it's free and returns every tool with its price, input/output schema and an example. First success before your first dollar. Only paid tools (e.g. telemost_channel_info) require a funded wallet.
Requires Node ≥ 18. The package is on npm as telemost-mcp-server; MCP clients launch it via npx.
Edit claude_desktop_config.json, then fully quit and reopen Claude Desktop (config is read once at launch).
| OS | Config file |
|---|---|
| macOS | ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json |
| Windows | %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json |
| Linux | ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json |
Windows (Microsoft Store / MSIX build): the app sandboxes
%APPDATA%\Claude\and redirects it to
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Claude_*\LocalCache\Roaming\Claude\. Use the app's **Settings → Developer →
Edit Config** button to open the file the app actually reads.
macOS / Linux:

"mcpServers": { "telemost": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "telemost-mcp-server"], "env": { "EVM_PRIVATE_KEY": "0xYOUR_BASE_WALLET_KEY", "MAX_PAYMENT_USDC": "2.5", "SESSION_MAX_USDC": "10" } } } }
Windows — if a bare npx command fails to start, wrap it with cmd /c:
{
"mcpServers": { "telemost": { "command": "cmd", "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "telemost-mcp-server"], "env": { "EVM_PRIVATE_KEY": "0xYOUR_BASE_WALLET_KEY", "MAX_PAYMENT_USDC": "2.5", "SESSION_MAX_USDC": "10" } } } }

A hosted MCP server is live at `https://api.telemost.io/mcp` (Streamable HTTP). Point any MCP client that supports remote/Streamable-HTTP servers at that URL. Minimal programmatic example:
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js";
import { createx402MCPClient } from "@x402/mcp"; import { ExactEvmScheme } from "@x402/evm/exact/client"; import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";
const client = createx402MCPClient({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0", schemes: [{ network: "eip155:8453", client: new ExactEvmScheme(privateKeyToAccount(process.env.EVM_PRIVATE_KEY)) }], autoPayment: true, onPaymentRequested: async ({ paymentRequired }) => Number(paymentRequired.accepts[0].maxAmountRequired) <= 20_000, // <= $0.02 }); await client.connect(new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(new URL("https://api.telemost.io/mcp")));
await client.callTool("telemost_catalog", {}); // free await client.callTool("telemost_channel_info", { channel: "@durov" }); // paid
telemost_catalog → { "service": "telemost-x402", "resources": [ … ], "mcp": { … } } (free).telemost_channel_info { "channel": "@durov" } → an envelope like:{ "ok": true,
"data": { "title": "…", "members_count": 0, "verified": true, "language": "en", "link": "https://t.me/…" }, "meta": { "resource": "/v1/data/channel", "content_origin": "third_party", "cached": false } }
Response text from Telegram (titles, posts, descriptions) is returned verbatim and tagged meta.content_origin; treat it as untrusted data, not instructions.
