Telnyx MCP. Manage messages, profiles, and credits with prompts.

You don't need a fancy GUI to handle your messaging operations; your agent connects directly to Telnyx, letting you run all SMS and MMS tasks from right where you are coding. You manage everything—sending messages, checking balances, setting up profiles, and tracking delivery status—all through simple commands.

When it comes to sending actual texts, you've got two tools. To fire off a standard outbound text message using one of your registered numbers, you use send_text_message. If you need to send something bigger—like an MMS that includes a JPEG or PNG image—you call send_media_message and pass it the public URL for the media.

To confirm if those texts actually got there, you check the status using get_message_details, which requires only the unique message ID to report back on successful delivery or why a text failed.

For number management, your agent lets you see exactly what numbers you own. You can pull a complete list of all owned phone numbers by running list_phone_numbers; this gives you every unique ID and E.164 format number tied to the account. If you need more deep details on one specific number—like its full configuration or capabilities—you hit up get_number_settings.

Controlling how your app sends messages requires managing messaging profiles, and this is where you do all the heavy lifting. To see what profiles already exist, you run list_messaging_profiles, which pulls a rundown of everything set up. If you need to create a whole new profile for a different application or use case, you call create_messaging_profile.

You can check the full setup and configuration details of any specific profile using get_messaging_profile_details. Remember that if you're done with a profile, you have to remove it entirely by running delete_messaging_profile; that action is permanent.

Before you send out a massive batch of messages or run any campaign, you gotta know what kind of dough you got. You check the available credit balance using get_account_balance, which gives you the current number on your Telnyx account so you don't get shut down mid-campaign.

Overall, this setup lets you manage all aspects of messaging—from listing every single phone number with list_phone_numbers to getting its specific details via get_number_settings, and from setting up new application rules using create_messaging_profile and viewing them with get_messaging_profile_details, down to confirming delivery status on a single message using get_message_details. You're running SMS via send_text_message or MMS with images via send_media_message, all while keeping an eye on your funds with get_account_balance.

This comprehensive toolset means you never gotta leave your IDE to handle core messaging operations.
