get_bot_info
AI agents call get_bot_info to retrieve information from Telegram MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves bot information without modifying, executing code, deleting data, or affecting financial systems. It is a data-retrieval operation with no side effects, falling clearly into the Read category. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—only exposure of bot metadata would occur.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_bot_info' indicates retrieval of bot metadata; sibling tools include 'send_message', 'forward_message', and 'get_updates', which are all read or communication-focused operations.
