Demo

!Demo

Features

  • Send SMS messages 📱
  • Pre-built prompts for common messaging scenarios 📝
  • Secure handling of Twilio credentials 🔒

Requirements

  • Node.js >= 18
    • If you need to update Node.js, we recommend using nvm (Node Version Manager):
      nvm install 18.14.2 nvm alias default 18.14.2
    • If you encounter any errors in Claude Desktop, try running the following command in your terminal to verify the installation:
      npx -y @yiyang.1i/sms-mcp-server

Configuration

The server requires three environment variables:

  • ACCOUNT_SID: Your Twilio account SID
  • AUTH_TOKEN: Your Twilio auth token
  • FROM_NUMBER: Your Twilio phone number (in E.164 format, e.g., +11234567890)

Claude Desktop Configuration

To use this server with Claude Desktop, add the following to your configuration file:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{ "mcpServers": { "twilio": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@yiyang.1i/sms-mcp-server" ], "env": { "ACCOUNT_SID": "your_account_sid", "AUTH_TOKEN": "your_auth_token", "FROM_NUMBER": "your_twilio_number" } } } }

After that, restart Claude Desktop to reload the configuration. If connected, you should see Twilio under the 🔨 menu.

Example Interactions with Claude

Here are some natural ways to interact with the server through Claude:

  1. Simple SMS:
Send a text message to the number +11234567890 saying "Don't forget about dinner tonight!"
  1. Creative SMS:
Write a haiku about autumn and send it to my number +11234567890

Important Notes

  1. Phone Number Format: All phone numbers must be in E.164 format (e.g., +11234567890)
  2. Rate Limits: Be aware of your Twilio account's rate limits and pricing
  3. Security: Keep your Twilio credentials secure and never commit them to version control

Troubleshooting

Common error messages and solutions:

  1. "Phone number must be in E.164 format"
    • Make sure the phone number starts with "+" and the country code
  2. "Invalid credentials"
    • Double-check your ACCOUNT_SID and AUTH_TOKEN. You can copy them from the Twilio Console
