How do I get a Telegram Bot Token?

Open Telegram, search for **@BotFather**, send `/newbot`, follow the prompts to name your bot, and copy the token provided (format: `123456:ABC-DEF...`).

Can I send messages to specific groups or channels?

Yes! Use the `send_message` tool with the chat_id of your target group, channel, or user. The bot must already be added to the group/channel as a member.

What media types can the bot send?

The bot supports sending photos, documents, videos, and audio files. Simply provide a public URL or a file_id from Telegram's servers.
