What the assistant cannot do
The MCP covers most of the setup. A few steps stay with you, on purpose or because no tool exists yet. Your assistant lists them at the end of the setup prompt.
Never through an assistant #
| Step | Where you do it | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Sign up and create the first token | the Console, Users › API & MCP | a token can never create a token |
| Create the bot | @BotFather in Telegram | only Telegram creates bots |
| The business connection | the Telegram app of her account | only the account owner can link a bot (guide) |
| Top up the balance | Billing › Top up | money stays with people (guide) |
| Send a message to a fan | nowhere | no tool sends messages, by design |
Not available through the MCP yet #
| Step | Where you do it today |
|---|---|
| Create a tracking link | Tracking links (guide) |
| Add a pixel or a conversion event | Tracking links, the link's pixels (guide) |
| Add a tracking domain | Tracking links |
| Agency name, logo, time zone | Users › Agency settings |
| Payment links | Users › Agency settings |
| Write a story | Studio › Telegram Accounts |
The assistant can still read tracking links (list_workspace_tracking_links), payment links and stories, and tell you which link brings sales.
Only with an extra box #
- Licences: assigning a licence spends your balance. It needs Spend the balance on licences, which only the agency owner can tick. Without it, do it in Billing › Licences.
