Set up in a minute
- Start the bot. Open @agentoutbox_bot in Telegram and press Start. Your private chat with the bot becomes your first destination.
- Add the connector. In your AI assistant, add a custom connector (remote MCP server) with the URL
https://outbox.roxinbox.io/mcp - Log in with a code. A login page opens. Send
/connectto the bot and enter the 6-digit code it replies with. - Ask for a message. Say “send this to Telegram”, or name a destination: “send this to family”.
Connect your assistant
Every assistant uses the same URL. Menu names change often, so if you can’t find the place, check the app’s current help pages for “custom connector” or “MCP server”.
- Claude
- Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector. Paste the URL, then turn the connector on in a chat.
- Claude Code
- Run this in your terminal, then
/mcpin Claude Code to log in:claude mcp add --transport http agent-outbox https://outbox.roxinbox.io/mcp - ChatGPT
- Add a custom MCP connector in ChatGPT’s settings. Availability depends on your plan.
- Grok
- Add a custom MCP connector or server in Grok’s settings.
- Cursor
- Add a new MCP server in Cursor’s settings and paste the URL.
Choose where messages go
A destination is a chat the bot can post to, with a short name you use when asking. Your private chat with the bot is called me and is the default.
- Group: add the bot to the group. If it’s already there, send
/linkin the group. - Channel: add the bot as an admin with the “Post messages” right, then forward any post from the channel to the bot.
- Names and default: send
/destinationsto rename, remove, or pick the default.
You can only add chats where you can post yourself. The bot checks this again before every message.
What to ask
Talk to your assistant normally and mention Telegram. For example:
- “Sum up what we just planned and send it to me on Telegram.”
- “Run the tests and post the results to the dev channel.”
- “Make a plan for Saturday and send it to family.”
- “Post today’s release notes to the team chat.”
- “Summarize this article and send it to Telegram.”
- “Which Telegram destinations do I have?”
- “How many Telegram messages do I have left today?”
Bold, italics, headings, lists, links and code come through as Telegram formatting. A long text is split into several Telegram messages (up to 10) and counts once toward your plan.

Troubleshooting
The login page doesn’t accept my code
A code works once and expires after 10 minutes, and a new /connect replaces the previous one. Send /connect again and use the newest code. After 5 wrong attempts, start connecting again from your assistant.
My assistant answers in the chat instead of sending
Check that the connector is turned on for this conversation, and say “Telegram” in your request: “send this to Telegram”.
“I don’t have a Telegram destination called …”
The assistant only sends to names you have, and the error lists them. Ask with one of those names, or rename destinations with /destinations.
The bot doesn’t post in my channel
Make the bot an admin of the channel with the “Post messages” right, then forward a post from the channel to the bot.
The bot left my group right after I added it
Only people who started the bot can add it to groups. Press Start in @agentoutbox_bot, then add it again.
“Message limit reached”
On Free, the limit resets at 00:00 UTC. Send /plan to see your usage, or /subscribe for Pro.
How do I disconnect an assistant?
Send /disconnect to unlink every connected assistant, and remove the connector in the assistant’s settings. To connect again, add the URL and use a new code.
