anthropics/claude-plugins-officialPlugin
Connect a Telegram bot to your Claude Code session over MCP. The server logs in as a bot, forwards inbound messages into the session as <channel> notifications, and exposes tools to reply (with attachments up to 50MB), react with emoji, edit prior messages, and download inbound files. Built-in access control supports DM pairing flows and group/supergroup allowlists managed through the /telegram:access skill. Forum-topic routing via TELEGRAM_TOPIC_IDS lets a single bot fan out to multiple parallel Claude Code sessions, each bound to its own supergroup topic, so four sessions can work on four projects without racing for inbound messages. Proxy-aware transport (TELEGRAM_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY) routes both text and multipart uploads through an HTTP proxy for use in regions where api.telegram.org is blocked or rate-limited.
Why this score
This repo hosts 54 add-ons, so its 46,079 stars are split between them (about 853 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 79/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
This listing doesn't point at a fixed version, so there's nothing stable for us to scan.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
