I put together a small side project that lets me use AI to work with my own Telegram account — searching chats, summarizing long threads, and sending messages without opening the app.

It’s not a product or a framework. I mostly built it because I’m in a lot of noisy Telegram groups and wanted a better way to answer questions like “what did we decide last week?” or “did anyone mention X recently?”

The setup uses a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects Telegram to AI clients like Claude Desktop or a CLI. Once it’s running, you can just ask things in plain English and get results from your chats.

I figured this might be useful to others dealing with similar Telegram overload, so I wrote up a step-by-step guide (linked above).

Code is here if you want to look around: https://github.com/OrrBin/telegram-mcp

Happy to answer questions or explain how it works.
