Headless SMS Automation with Claude Code

Integrate ProTexting into your shell scripts or cron jobs for automated alerts. Claude Code invokes `send_sms` directly from the command line, perfect for status updates or notification triggers. It removes the need for a GUI when you need to fire off messages. Just pipe your data into the tool and let it handle the delivery through the ProTexting API.

Batch Contact Processing

Manage your contact database at scale by using `list_contacts` and `delete_contact` from your terminal. Claude Code makes it easy to prune old records or verify group memberships. You can chain these commands in your build process to keep your SMS lists updated. It treats your contact data like standard streamable output, giving you full control over your ProTexting account.

Account and Keyword Monitoring

Run `list_keywords` or `get_account` as part of your system health checks. Claude Code provides the visibility you need to ensure your SMS infrastructure is ready for high-traffic events. This keeps your operations transparent. You get the raw data back in your terminal, allowing you to react immediately if your credit balance or keyword health requires attention.
