Telegram
A full-featured Telegram CLI that lets you read, search, send messages, and manage groups without touching the app. Handles everything from checking unread messages and muting noisy chats to kicking users, promoting admins, and exporting chat history to markdown. The incremental sync is clever for keeping archives current, and it now shows proper media metadata instead of generic "(no text)" placeholders. Outputs as JSON for programmatic use or markdown for display. The transfer-owner command is appropriately cautious since it's irreversible and requires your 2FA password. Setup needs API credentials from Telegram's developer portal, but after that it's straightforward CLI operations. Good for when you want Telegram functionality in scripts or need to work with messages programmatically.
