AI agents use join_channel_by_invite to create or update resources in Telegram MCP Complete — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Telegram MCP Complete environment.
This tool joins a Telegram channel using an invite link, which is a reversible write action (you can leave the channel). It modifies account state by adding a new channel membership, but does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. Misuse could lead to joining unwanted or malicious channels.

{
"counter": "join_channel_by_invite_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
