SMS MCP Server for AI agents

This page provides a comprehensive overview of how to send and receive SMS messages from various AI agent platforms using the SMS MCP Server functionality built into Ozeki SMS Gateway. Each section below covers setup, configuration, sending, and receiving for a specific AI tool or agent environment.

What is an MCP server?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server is a service that exposes tools, resources, and data to AI models in a standardized way. It acts as a bridge between AI assistants like Claude and external systems such as databases, APIs, or applications, allowing the AI to take real-world actions. MCP servers can be connected to compatible AI clients to extend their capabilities with features like file access, web search, or SMS messaging.

What is an SMS MCP Server

An SMS MCP Server is an MCP server that exposes SMS messaging capabilities as tools that AI models can use to send and receive text messages. It acts as a bridge between an AI assistant and an SMS gateway, allowing the AI to programmatically interact with phone numbers and mobile networks. This enables AI clients like Claude Code to automate SMS-based workflows, such as sending sms or responding to incoming messages.

How does an SMS MCP Server work?

An SMS MCP Server works by connecting to an SMS gateway (such as Ozeki SMS Gateway) and exposing its messaging functions as MCP-compatible tools that AI clients can call. When an AI assistant needs to send or receive an SMS, it invokes the appropriate tool on the MCP server, which then forwards the request to the SMS gateway and delivers it to the mobile network. The server can also listen for incoming messages and make them available to the AI, enabling two-way SMS communication driven by the AI model.
