Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

tlgrm scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 104 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Driving tlgrm (Telegram)

tlgrm is an unofficial Telegram client. You can drive it two ways:

  • CLI: run tlgrm <command> ... in the shell. Every command prints JSON.
  • MCP server: if the tlgrm MCP server is connected, call its tools directly.

Both run the same underlying operations. Prefer the MCP tools when available. (The MCP server is a thin bridge to a local tlgrm "server" that owns the Telegram connection; it auto-starts that for you — you don't manage it.)

Preflight (do this first)

Confirm a session exists before anything else:

  • CLI: run tlgrm whoami. MCP: call whoami.
  • If it returns {"success": false, ...} or an auth error, tell the user to run tlgrm login in their terminal (interactive — you cannot do it for them), and stop.

Accounts (multi-login)

The user may have several Telegram accounts. The default account is used unless one is chosen.

  • See accounts: tlgrm account list.
  • Act as a specific account: add -a NAME to any CLI command (e.g. tlgrm -a work send --target @x --text "hi"). For MCP, the account is fixed when the server is configured (--account); ask the user to set it if they want a different one — don't assume.
  • If the user names an account ("use my work account"), pass -a <that>.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
