## Description

Telegram MCP Server provides a bridge between AI assistants and the Telegram messaging platform, enabling comprehensive interaction with chats and messages. Built using FastMCP and Telethon, it offers tools for retrieving unread messages, accessing chat history, sending messages with optional replies, and managing entities. The server handles Telegram API authentication through environment variables and implements a FastAPI backend that processes requests from the MCP interface. It's particularly valuable for applications requiring automated message monitoring and response capabilities without managing the complexities of Telegram's API directly.
