listing.about

Connects an assistant to the Telnyx platform, which provides programmable voice, SMS and MMS, phone numbers, AI assistants and inference, and edge compute. The OAuth scopes cover account management, AI, billing, authentication and access, edge compute and enterprise integrations, each with read or write access.

Runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp, with no local install. Users sign in with OAuth, and the scopes granted decide what the assistant can read or change. Tool calls can also use a Telnyx API key sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.

listing.can

  • Manage Telnyx account settings and read billing information
  • Work with Telnyx AI assistants and inference resources
  • Access edge compute resources with read or write scopes
  • Handle authentication and access settings for the account
  • Reach voice, messaging and number APIs documented by Telnyx

listing.tools

listing.prompts

  • Show my current Telnyx account balance

  • List the AI assistants on my Telnyx account

  • What edge compute functions do I have deployed on Telnyx?

  • Summarize recent billing activity on my Telnyx account

Claude Code

  1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
claude mcp add --transport http telnyx https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp
  1. Start Claude Code, type /mcp, pick telnyx and choose Authenticate. A browser window opens for the Telnyx sign-in.

Add --scope user to make it available in every project, not just this one.

Claude Desktop

  1. Open Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
  2. Name it Telnyx and paste this URL:
https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp
  1. Click Add, then Connect, and sign in when Telnyx asks.

Claude Desktop's JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

claude.ai

  1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:
  1. Check that the URL reads https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp and click Add.
  2. Click Connect and sign in when Telnyx asks.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under Organization settings → Connectors.

ChatGPT

  1. On chatgpt.com, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
  2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click + to create an app for a remote MCP server.
  3. Paste https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp as the server URL and choose OAuth. ChatGPT sends you to Telnyx to sign in.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

Cursor

Or add it by hand to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "telnyx": {
      "url": "https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor shows Needs login next to the server. Click it to sign in.

VS Code

Or from a terminal:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"telnyx","type":"http","url":"https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp"}'

Or commit it to the repo in .vscode/mcp.json:

.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "telnyx": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.

Devin Desktop

  1. Add it to ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (macOS and Linux) or %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json (Windows):
mcp_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "telnyx": {
      "serverUrl": "https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads serverUrl (or url) for remote servers.

Codex

codex mcp add telnyx --url https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp
codex mcp login telnyx

Or edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly:

config.toml
[mcp_servers.telnyx]
url = "https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp"

Gemini CLI

gemini mcp add --transport http telnyx https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth telnyx to sign in.

This adds it to the current project. Add -s user to use it everywhere.

Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: serverUrl in Devin Desktop, httpUrl in Gemini CLI's settings file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "telnyx": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Zed puts servers under context_servers in its settings. Cline needs "type": "streamableHttp", or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with npx -y mcp-remote https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp.

listing.faq

Can I paste mcp.tc/i/telnyx into my MCP client?

No. mcp.tc links are pages, not server addresses. Connect with https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp, so your client talks to Telnyx directly. The sign-in token only works there anyway. The quick link is for sharing: it opens this page, with setup steps for every client.

Does Telnyx need an API key or a sign-in?

Yes, you need a Telnyx account. The first time your client connects, it opens Telnyx's sign-in page. The token goes straight to the server's own URL, never through mcp.tc.

Is Telnyx a remote or a local server?

Remote. Telnyx hosts it at https://api.telnyx.com/v2/mcp, and it speaks Streamable HTTP. There's nothing to install.

What can Telnyx do?

You can manage Telnyx account settings and read billing information, work with Telnyx AI assistants and inference resources and access edge compute resources with read or write scopes.

Which clients can use it?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, claude.ai, ChatGPT in developer mode, Cursor, VS Code, Devin Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Zed and others. The setup steps cover each one.

Who wrote this page?

mcp.tc's robot read Telnyx's own metadata (its MCP handshake, tool list and public pages), and an AI model drafted the text from it. A person reviews anything the checks can't confirm. The text can still be wrong, so if you spot a mistake, use Report this listing on this page.
