What problem does it solve? Retrieving historical messages from Telegram channels and groups is difficult because the Bot API cannot read history from before a bot joined, and manual scrolling through long chat archives is impractical. This Skill provides a read-only workflow for searching Telegram content using an already-logged-in Telegram Web session, user-provided exports, or local cached indexes. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Read-only history search: Search public channels, groups, and message history by keyword, time range, or topic using MTProto/User API tools or cached indexes. - Source verification: Output message links, channel names, timestamps, message IDs, and context limits so results are verifiable. - Safe fallback paths: Use the telecrawl tool for deep caching when available, or fall back to WebSearch and browser-based reading of public channel pages. - Use Case: A researcher needs to find all messages about a specific topic posted in a public Telegram channel over the past year. The Skill queries the logged-in Telegram Web session or a telecrawl cache and returns matching messages with links and timestamps. ## Quick Start Search the public Telegram channel I linked for all messages mentioning "release notes" from the past six months and list them with links and dates.
