This is a full-featured Telegram CLI that lets Claude read your messages, send replies, search conversations, download media, and monitor chats in real time. It's surprisingly complete: you get pagination, filtering by chat type, inline button clicking, voice transcription for Premium users, and even a background daemon that keeps connections alive so commands run in 200ms instead of 2-3 seconds. The JSON output plays nicely with jq for fast processing. If you want Claude to check unread messages, forward something to a channel, or listen for incoming DMs while it works on other tasks, this handles it. Just be aware you're granting Claude direct access to your Telegram account, so the usual auth and security considerations apply.
