Delete saved message drafts. Pass chatId to clear the draft for a single chat. Without chatId, clears drafts in ALL chats — requires confirmAllChats: true
AI agents call telegram-clear-drafts to permanently remove resources in MCP-Telegram — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently deletes message drafts, which are user-generated data that cannot be recovered once removed. The ability to clear drafts across all chats simultaneously creates significant blast radius if an AI agent is manipulated into using it without proper safeguards.
From the tool's definition 'Delete saved message drafts' and 'clears drafts in ALL chats' — irreversibly removes user data without ability to undo the deletion.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access telegram-clear-drafts gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP-Telegram, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for telegram-clear-drafts:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"hide": [
"telegram-clear-drafts"
]
} telegram-clear-drafts disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.
