What is the SMS GSM-7 Sanitizer MCP Server?
When a Martech AI Agent drafts an SMS campaign via Twilio or Zenvia, the LLM will often include emojis (🚀) or smart quotes (” instead of "). This instantly breaks the standard 160-character GSM-7 encoding, reducing the limit to 70 characters and splitting the message into 3 parts. The client ends up paying 3x more for the campaign. This MCP solves that perfectly.
The Superpowers
- Emoji Eradication: Safely strips all emojis and zero-width characters using aggressive regular expressions.
- Unicode Transliteration: Converts complex accents and symbols into safe 7-bit ASCII (GSM-7) to guarantee maximum character limits per message segment.
Built-in capabilities (1)
Pass the draft text and the engine will strip emojis and transliterate Unicode to pure 7-bit ASCII, guaranteeing GSM-7 encoding and maximum 160-character segments. Strips emojis and complex Unicode to guarantee 100% GSM-7 compatibility. Prevents Twilio from charging 3x for multi-part SMS messages
Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns SMS GSM-7 Sanitizer into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from SMS GSM-7 Sanitizer and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 1 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
Why does an emoji cost more?
Emojis force the telecom provider to use UCS-2 encoding, which cuts the character limit from 160 down to 70 per message segment.
What happens to accented letters?
Using the unidecode algorithm, letters like 'ç' become 'c' and 'ã' become 'a', ensuring strict ASCII compatibility.
Is this needed for WhatsApp?
No, WhatsApp handles Unicode perfectly. This is specifically for legacy SMS gateways like Twilio and SNS.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
