AI agents use send_media_group 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 sends media messages to Telegram chats. Sending messages is a Write operation (creates new data/content). It is not Destructive (messages can be deleted), not Execute (no arbitrary code execution), and not Financial. Severity is medium because misuse could spam users, flood channels, or send sensitive media to wrong recipients, but individual messages can be deleted and the effect is reversible.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'send_media_group' and description indicating sending media in album format ('发送媒体组(相册形式)' = 'Send media group (album format)'). The tool creates/posts new content (media messages) to Telegram, which is a reversible write operation.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Telegram MCP Complete, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for send_media_group:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"send_media_group": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "send_media_group_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} send_media_group stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
