The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
tg_chats List Telegram chats ~99
List the Telegram dialogs (chats/channels/groups/users) visible to the logged-in session, as [{id, type, name, username}]. Use it to find the chat id or @username to pass as `chat` to tg_messages / tg_download. Optional `filter` does a case-insensitive substring match on name/username/id.

|---|---|---|---|
| filter | string | – | Case-insensitive substring to match against chat name, username or id |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tg_download Download Telegram media from a chat ~186
Download media files from one chat (by id or @username) to a local directory and return the absolute paths of newly downloaded files. Use extensions (csv, e.g. 'xlsx,pdf') to fetch only certain file types; since_id for 'everything new after message X'; last_n for 'the latest N media messages' (default 100). Already-present files are skipped (--skip-same).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| chat | string | yes | Chat id or @username/domain (as shown by tg_chats) |
| dest | string | – | Destination directory (default ~/Downloads/telegram) |

tg_download_url Download Telegram media by t.me link ~123
Download the media of specific Telegram messages given their t.me links (e.g. https://t.me/channel/123) and return the absolute paths of newly downloaded files. Use when you already have message links rather than a chat to scan. Already-present files are skipped (--skip-same).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| dest | string | – | Destination directory (default ~/Downloads/telegram) |
| extensions | string | – | Comma-separated file extensions to include, e.g. 'xlsx,pdf' |

tg_messages Read recent Telegram messages ~158
Export recent media messages from one chat (by id or @username) and return them as compact {id, date, file, text} objects — newest range exported via tdl. Use last_n for 'the last N media messages', or since_id to fetch only messages after a known message id (incremental reads). Read-only.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| chat | string | yes | Chat id or @username/domain (as shown by tg_chats) |
| last_n | integer | – | How many recent media messages to export (default 50, max 500) |

| with_text | boolean | – | Include message text content (default true) |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
tg_status Telegram session status ~54
Check whether the local tdl Telegram session is logged in and usable. Call this first if another tg_* tool fails or before starting Telegram work. Never errors — returns {logged_in:false, hint} when the session is missing.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
