Get information about the bot (name, username, etc.).
AI agents call get_bot_info to retrieve information from Telegram Mcp Kit without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves public metadata about a bot account (name, username). It performs no modifications, deletions, or state changes. Retrieval of bot information is a read-only operation with minimal blast radius even if invoked inappropriately by an agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_bot_info' and description states 'Get information about the bot (name, username, etc.)'. The verb 'get' and the phrase 'information about' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
