Connection flow
Remote MCP with browser-based OAuth
Use the hosted endpoint from a compatible client. Telegram Finder handles authorization centrally, so credentials do not need to be copied into project files.
- Connect the hosted endpointConfigure your MCP client with https://www.telegram-finder.io/mcp or use the Telegram Finder CLI to update a supported client.
- Approve access with OAuthYour client opens a browser authorization flow. Sign in to Telegram Finder and approve the requested connection.
- Call a focused toolThe client discovers the available tools and can run an authorized lookup within your existing account limits.
Implementation notes
What to know before connecting a client
These details apply to the hosted Telegram Finder MCP server and its current lookup tools.
No. The hosted server uses browser-based OAuth authorization. Your client stores its authorized connection instead of a Telegram Finder API key.
Telegram Finder provides guided setup for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and Windsurf. Other clients can connect when they support remote HTTP MCP servers and browser authorization.
MCP tools use the permissions and lookup limits attached to the connected Telegram Finder account. The MCP connection does not bypass plan or request limits.
A missing result does not prove that a person has no Telegram account. Availability depends on the submitted identifier, accessible data and Telegram privacy settings.
Build with Telegram Finder
Use MCP for agents and development assistants, or integrate the REST API directly.
