What is Twilio Manager MCP?

Twilio Manager MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides tools for managing Twilio resources such as subaccounts, phone numbers, and regulatory bundles. It is designed for developers using MCP‑compatible AI assistants like Claude Desktop or Cursor to interact with Twilio through natural language.

How to use Twilio Manager MCP?

Install uv (package manager), clone the repository, run uv sync, and create a .env file with your Twilio credentials (TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID and TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN). Configure your MCP client (e.g., Cursor) using a .cursor/mcp.json file with either a direct uv/uvx command or an SSE endpoint. Once configured, ask your AI assistant to list subaccounts, get phone numbers, or transfer numbers.
