claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Telegram plugin: inbound notifications/claude/channel silently dropped and not delivered to session [1 participants]

When using the Claude Code Telegram plugin, the MCP server successfully receives inbound messages from Telegram and sends notifications/claude/channel MCP notifications, but Claude Code silently drops them — the notifications are sent successfully by the MCP server but are never surfaced to the conversation. No error is logged on either side.

TL;DR

The issue may be resolved by investigating the notification handling in Claude Code, specifically focusing on the notifications/claude/channel MCP notifications.

Guidance

• Review the Claude Code documentation and source code to understand how notifications/claude/channel MCP notifications are handled and why they might be silently dropped.
• Check if there are any configuration options or settings in the Telegram plugin or Claude Code that could be causing the notifications to be ignored.
• Investigate the related issues (#36431, #36802, #37663, #38534) to see if they provide any clues or workarounds for this problem.
• Verify that the MCP server is correctly sending the notifications and that the issue is indeed with Claude Code receiving or processing them.

Example

No code snippet can be provided without more information about the internal workings of Claude Code or the Telegram plugin.

Notes

The root cause of the issue is unclear, and more investigation is needed to determine why the notifications are being silently dropped. The fact that no error is logged on either side makes it more challenging to diagnose the problem.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the issue is not fully understood, and no clear fix is available, applying a workaround, such as manually checking the MCP server logs or using a different notification mechanism, might be necessary until a proper solution is found.
