Documentation Overview

botcall-mcp

An MCP server that gives AI agents real phone numbers. Provision a number, receive SMS, and extract verification codes — all through tool calls.

Built for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and any MCP-compatible client.

      "args": ["-y", "botcall-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "BOTCALL_API_KEY": "bs_live_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Then set your API key in the environment:

server.ts

export BOTCALL_API_KEY="bs_live_..."
