Automate SMS and call history in Claude Desktop

Stop switching tabs to check your phone system. Use `send_sms` to fire off messages directly from your chat window and pull `list_sms_messages` to see the full thread without leaving the app. Your agent handles the retrieval of `get_call_records` for any user on your account. It’s a clean way to track communication history while you work on other tasks.

Full GoTo Connect user and device management

Get a clear picture of your team infrastructure. Call `list_users` or `get_user` to verify account details, then use `list_devices` to see exactly what hardware is assigned to who. This MCP Server cuts out the manual lookups in the admin portal. You get the data you need to troubleshoot issues in seconds rather than minutes.

Direct access to your voicemail data

Query your inbox without opening the web dashboard. The `list_voicemails` tool shows you what's waiting, and `get_voicemail` pulls the specific details you need to process a request. It’s helpful for keeping your workflow focused. Your AI client acts as the interface for your entire communication queue.
