AI agents use set_read_enabled 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 modifies account preferences (read receipt visibility) rather than creating or deleting chat data. It is reversible (can be toggled on/off) and has minimal blast radius—changing read receipt settings affects only the visibility of a user's online status indicator, not critical data or operations.
From the tool's definition Tool description translates to 'set whether to display read receipts', which modifies a user preference/setting.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access set_read_enabled gives an agent:
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 set_read_enabled:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"set_read_enabled": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "set_read_enabled_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} set_read_enabled 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.
