Telegram Bot + ChatGPT

Send Telegram messages, photos, documents, audio, location and polls from any AI agent via the Telegram Bot API. 14 tools, bot-token auth. Outbound + lightweight read of recent updates (no long-polling).

Prerequisiti

Le istruzioni di setup complete sono incluse nel connettore stesso (visibili nello store quando lo selezioni). Le variabili d'ambiente richieste sono:

TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN

Step 1 — Ottieni le credenziali

telegram.org/bots/api).

Setup:

  1. In Telegram, open chat with @BotFather/newbot → pick a display name and a username ending in bot.
  2. BotFather replies with an HTTP API token like 123456789:ABCDEFghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. Treat as a secret — anyone with it can send as your bot.
  3. Set TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN to the full token.

Authentication model (Telegram-specific): the bot token goes in the URL path, NOT in a header. The base URL is https://api.telegram.org/bot${TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN} and every endpoint is appended as /methodName. The adapter substitutes the token via the {{TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN}} env-var template in baseUrl.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Step 2 — Installa l'adapter

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Step 3 — Aggiungi il connettore in ChatGPT

ChatGPT supporta server MCP tramite la funzione Connectors (piani Plus / Pro / Team / Enterprise). Il piano gratuito non supporta connettori personalizzati.

  1. Apri ChatGPT → Impostazioni → Connectors (o clicca l'icona 🔧 nel composer → Manage connectors).
  2. Clicca "Add custom connector".
  3. Compila:
    • Name: Telegram Bot
    • MCP server URL: https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp
    • Authentication: Bearer token → incolla la tua MCP API key (da AnythingMCP → Profile → MCP API Keys → New Key)
  4. Clicca Connect per autorizzare.
