## Description
Give AI agents real phone numbers, messages, and voice calls via MCP.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "agentphone": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","agentphone"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation & README

# AgentPhone MCP Server

Give AI agents real phone numbers, SMS, and voice calls via the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io).

**AgentPhone** lets your AI agent buy phone numbers, send/receive SMS, and place voice calls — all through natural language in Cursor, Claude Desktop, or any MCP-compatible client.

**Agents** are the core concept — each agent gets its own phone numbers, voice personality, system prompt, and webhook. Think of an agent as a virtual team member with its own phone line. You can create agents for different purposes (support, sales, scheduling) and configure how they sound and behave on calls.

## Quick Start

### 1. Get your API key

Sign up at [agentphone.ai](https://agentphone.ai) and create an API key from **Settings**.

### 2. Connect via MCP

**Option A: Remote server (recommended)**

Point your MCP client at the hosted endpoint — no install needed:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentphone": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://mcp.agentphone.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Works with any MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP transport (Switchboard, remote agent platforms, etc.).

**Option B: Local server (stdio)**

Runs locally via `npx` — works with Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, and Claude Code:

**Cursor:** Settings > MCP or `~/.cursor/mcp.json`
**Claude Desktop:** `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS) or `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` (Windows)

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentphone": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "agentphone-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "AGENTPHONE_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

**Option C: Self-hosted HTTP server**

Run your own HTTP MCP endpoint:

```bash
AGENTPHONE_API_KEY=your_api_key npx agentphone-mcp --http --port 3000
```

Then connect to `http://localhost:3000/mcp`.

## What Can It Do?

Once configured, just ask your AI agent things like:

- *"Buy me a phone number in the 415 area code"*
- *"Create a support agent that greets callers and helps with billing"*
- *"Call +14155551234 and have a conversation about scheduling a dentist appointment"*
- *"Text +14155551234 saying 'Your appointment is confirmed for 3pm tomorrow'"*
- *"Show me my recent calls and transcripts"*
- *"List the available voices and switch my agent to a different one"*
- *"Set up a webhook so I get notified when someone calls or texts my number"*
- *"Show me this month's usage breakdown"*

## Transport & hosting

The server is built on the [mcp-use](https://docs.mcp-use.com) server framework,
which owns the HTTP layer: Streamable HTTP, the SSE stream, session management,
and the OAuth discovery endpoints. `npm start` (or the Docker image) runs it as
an HTTP server on `PORT` (default 3000), reachable at `/mcp`.

- **Hosted:** `https://mcp.agentphone.ai/mcp`
- **Self-hosted:** `PORT=3000 npm start` → `http://localhost:3000/mcp`

### Authentication

1. **OAuth (recommended for end users):** the framework proxies an
   Authorization Code + PKCE flow to the AgentPhone authorization server, so the
   client opens a browser to sign in at agentphone.ai — no key to paste. Enable
   it by setting `MCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID` / `MCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET` (a client
   pre-registered with the AgentPhone AS).
2. **API key (scripts / single-tenant):** set `AGENTPHONE_API_KEY`. Used as the
   fallback credential when no OAuth token is present.

The per-request access token is forwarded to the AgentPhone REST API, so the
server stores no credentials.

### Environment

| Var | Purpose |
|-----|---------|
| `PORT` | HTTP port (default 3000) |
| `AGENTPHONE_API_KEY` | Fallback API key when OAuth is off |
| `MCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID` / `MCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET` | Enable OAuth; client pre-registered with the AgentPhone AS |
| `AGENTPHONE_BASE_URL` | API base (default `https://api.agentphone.ai`) |
| `AGENTPHONE_OAUTH_AUTHORIZE` | Override authorize/consent URL (default `https://agentphone.ai/oauth/authorize`) |

## Highlights

- **Phone numbers** — buy and manage numbers in any US/CA area code
- **SMS** — send and receive text messages, view conversation threads
- **Voice calls** — place outbound calls with built-in AI conversation (no webhook needed) or bring your own webhook
- **Inbound handling** — set up webhooks to receive and respond to inbound calls and texts in real time
- **Agents** — create agents with custom voices, system prompts, call transfer, and voicemail
- **Usage & billing** — monitor your plan limits, message/call volume, and daily/monthly breakdowns

## All Tools (28)

## Development

```bash
git clone https://github.com/AgentPhone-AI/agentphone-mcp.git
cd agentphone-mcp
npm install
npm run dev     # Run with tsx (hot reload)
npm run build   # Compile TypeScript
npm start       # Run compiled JS (stdio)
```

## How It Works

This MCP server connects your AI assistant to the [AgentPhone API](https://agentphone.ai). Your assistant talks to the MCP server, which calls the AgentPhone API, which talks to the phone network.

```
Your AI Assistant  <-->  agentphone-mcp  <-->  AgentPhone API  <-->  Phone Network
```

**Outbound**: your assistant places calls and sends texts through AgentPhone's API.

**Inbound**: when someone calls or texts your number, AgentPhone sends a webhook event to your server — you can then respond programmatically or let your agent's built-in AI handle it.
