Its card, with similar plugins by marketplace

What each says it does

discord

In its own words, on Community GitHub marketplaces:

Discord server admin via natural language — channels, roles, embeds, AutoMod, welcome screens, scheduled events, and full server templates. One front door: /discord.

Telegram MCP

In its own words, on Official MCP Registry:

Telegram for AI agents: messages, chats, media, and contacts in bot and user-account modes.

How to run each

discord

No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.

Telegram MCP As a local MCP server: PyPI package

Claude Code

claude mcp add --env "TELEGRAM_API_HASH=<YOUR_TELEGRAM_API_HASH>" --env "TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=<YOUR_TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN>" --transport stdio better-telegram-mcp -- uvx n24q02m-telegram

Requires: TELEGRAM_API_HASH (secret), TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN (secret)

Commands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.

Tools each declares

Neither one's marketplaces publish a list of tools, so there is nothing to compare.

Settings each asks for

Only discord asks for

CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA
CLAUDE_PLUGIN_OPTION_MFA_ENABLED

Only Telegram MCP asks for

TELEGRAM_API_HASH (secret)
TELEGRAM_API_ID
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN (secret)

Settings as each marketplace publishes them. Asking for fewer is not better in itself.
