CCTelegram is a comprehensive notification ecosystem designed to integrate Claude Code with Telegram using a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and a high-performance bridge.

CCTelegram : Bridge + MCP Server
TL;DR
Complete Notification Ecosystem for Claude Code over Telegram
CCTelegram consists of two complementary components that work together seamlessly:
🔌 MCP Server (TypeScript) - Integrates directly with Claude Code via MCP protocol
🌉 Bridge (Rust) - High-performance background service for Telegram communication
Get real-time notifications, interactive approvals, and comprehensive development workflow integration.
Built specifically for the Claude Code + developer mindset.
🛡️ Security Score: 8.5/10 (LOW RISK) | 🔒 OWASP Top 10 2021: 100% Compliant | ✅ Zero Critical Vulnerabilities
⚡ 30-Second Install
1. Get Telegram Ready
- Create bot with @BotFather:
/newbot - Get your user ID from @userinfobot
2. Install Complete System
# Download both MCP Server and built Bridge
git clone https://github.com/co8/cctelegram.git
cd cctelegram/mcp-server
# Install MCP Server + Slash Commands
./install.sh
# Configure your tokens (installer guides you)
export TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="your_bot_token_here"
export TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS="your_user_id_here"
# Bridge starts automatically in background
3. Test with Claude Code
# Restart Claude Code, then test with MCP tools:
@cctelegram send_telegram_message "🎉 CCTelegram v1.9.0 Enterprise Testing Complete!"
🎉 You should get a Telegram notification within seconds!
How it works: MCP Server processes the command in Claude Code → Bridge detects the event file → Sends to Telegram
Both components work together automatically - no manual management needed.
