Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
telegram-per-project
Telegram channel for Claude Code with per-project bot isolation. Each project gets its own Telegram bot, access policy, and message inbox — so messages to @alpha_bot reach Terminal 1 and messages to @beta_bot reach Terminal 2, with no cross-talk. Key features: - Per-project bot tokens via TELEGRAM_PROJECT_ID environment variable - Independent access policies per project, bootstrapped from global config - Response timeout — notifies senders when the assistant isn't responding (configurable, default 45s) - Full access control: DM pairing, allowlists, group mention detection - Reply, react, and edit_message tools for the assistant - Photo support with inline preview - Fully backward compatible — works as a single global bot if no project ID is set
Telegram Bot MCP Server
Self-hosted Telegram Bot MCP server for rich text, media and interactive buttons.
How to run each
telegram-per-project As a Claude Code plugin
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
/plugin install telegram-per-project@claude-communityTelegram Bot MCP Server
No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.
Requires: MCP_API_KEY (secret), TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN (secret), TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID (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 telegram-per-project asks for
NODE_PATH
Only Telegram Bot MCP Server asks for
MCP_API_KEY (secret)TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN (secret)TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID (secret)
Settings as each marketplace publishes them. Asking for fewer is not better in itself.
