What is the Retell AI MCP Server?
Connect your conversational assistant directly to Retell AI, a powerful platform for building voice-driven conversational agents. Empower your AI to orchestrate, analyze, and automate phone calls or web-based voice interactions seamlessly via simple text commands. From provisioning intelligent voice agents to placing outbound calls to customers, this integration brings the full telecommunication stack directly to your chat interface.
What you can do
- Automate Phone Calls — Command your assistant to initiate outbound voice interactions on your behalf (
create_phone_call) or register active sessions for web browser integration (register_web_call). - Build and Manage Voice Agents — Dynamically orchestrate AI agent personalities (
create_agent,update_agent) and configure their underlying conversational brain (create_llm) with specific system instructions and models. - Analyze Telemetry — Keep track of your infrastructure by querying historical call logs (
list_calls), investigating specific conversations for transcripts and sentiment analysis (get_call_details), surveying available text-to-speech voices (list_voices), and reviewing provisioned communication lines (list_phone_numbersandlist_agents).
How it works
- Install the Retell extension module within your MCP environment.
- Obtain your
Retell API Keyfrom your official provider account and securely input it into the designated authentication parameter below. - Simply chat with your assistant: "Review all my available voices, create a new AI voice agent configured as a customer support representative, and initiate a test phone call to my personal number."
Who is this for?
- Founders & Operators — Spin up autonomous voice-driven receptionists or support bots to interact with inbound or outbound telecommunication traffic efficiently.
- Developers & Integrators — Manage Retell AI configurations and rapidly prototype voice applications without using Postman or coding custom administration panels.
- Workflow Orchestrators — Chain natural language instructions to dynamically assess previous call transcripts and adjust an active agent's system prompt accordingly.

Frequently asked questions
Does Retell handle the telephone lines, or do I need my own Twilio/carrier?
Retell AI is designed to integrate seamlessly into telephony workflows but generally focuses on the conversational agent side. They provide features to list and attach numbers (list_phone_numbers), but you often purchase those numbers or link a custom SIP trunk through Retell accounts. You can run list_phone_numbers to see your currently available direct lines.
How do I create an outbound call programmatically with my assistant?
Simply ask your assistant to "Call X using my Y agent." Behind the scenes, the AI relies on the create_phone_call tool, transmitting a JSON payload supplying the from_number (a Retell registered phone number), to_number (destination), and an override_agent_id parameter to assign your voice agent correctly.
Can the AI initiate voice calls in a web browser instead of over the phone?
Yes. Use the register_web_call tool to create a browser-based voice session. This returns a connection URL and access token that your frontend application can use to start a real-time WebRTC conversation with a Retell voice agent, without requiring any phone line.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query Retell AI tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
