Connect AI agents to the Telnyx MCP server
Vendor MCP6 toolsOAuth 2.1/DCRCommunicationAIThe Telnyx MCP connector routes your AI agent's tool calls to Telnyx's own MCP server through Scalekit. Each user signs in to Telnyx once, and Scalekit stores and refreshes their tokens, so your agent never handles credentials. It comes with 6 tools.

Tool list
Section titled “Tool list”Use the exact tool names from the Tool list below when you call execute_tool. If you’re not sure which name to use, list the tools available for the current user first.
telnyxmcp_get_api_endpoint_schema#Get the JSON schema for a named Telnyx API endpoint. Call this after finding an endpoint with list_api_endpoints; the returned schema tells you which arguments invoke_api_endpoint expects.1 param
Get the JSON schema for a named Telnyx API endpoint. Call this after finding an endpoint with list_api_endpoints; the returned schema tells you which arguments invoke_api_endpoint expects.
endpointstringrequiredThe name of the endpoint to get the schema for, as returned by list_api_endpoints.telnyxmcp_invoke_api_endpoint#Invoke any Telnyx API endpoint by name. This is a generic executor that dispatches to the underlying Telnyx REST API: first find the endpoint with list_api_endpoints, fetch its argument schema with get_api_endpoint_schema, then call this tool with the endpoint name and matching args. Can perform writes (create, update, delete), so use with care.2 params
