MCP-Telegram (mcp-telegram/mcp-telegram) is an MCP server listed on the M8ven Trust Index. M8ven has not graded it: we have no way to read this server ourselves. No publisher has claimed this listing.
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects AI assistants like Claude to Telegram via the MTProto protocol. Unlike bots, this runs as a userbot -- it operates under your personal Telegram account using GramJS, giving full access to your chats, contacts, and message history.
Emerging. No concerning findings. Grades remain capped until the project builds reputation through adoption. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations
Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.
All four hints declared on every tool
181/181 tools missing one or more hints — telegram-mute-chat (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); telegram-get-chat-folders (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); telegram-set-auto-delete (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +178 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.
For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.
Tool inputs are validated
163/181 tool handlers declare input schemas (90%)
Declare an inputSchema with zod/joi/yup on every tool definition.
Tool handlers catch errors
180/181 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (99%)
Wrap each tool handler body in try/catch and return a structured error response.
Tool test coverage
Only 9/181 tools referenced in tests (5%)
Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.
Shell command execution
1 child_process call — runs shell commands
Prefer library functions over shell-outs. If you must shell out, ensure all inputs are properly escaped.
Dependency freshness
1/6 production deps stale: big-integer@2024-02-16 (2.3y)
