Summary

No ready-made AnythingMCP connector for Twilio yet. How to use Twilio in Muse today: Twilio's own MCP offering, or its REST API imported into AnythingMCP yourself.

There is no ready-made AnythingMCP connector for Twilio yet. Twilio is not in the AnythingMCP connector catalog, on Cloud or self-hosted. This guide covers what works today: Twilio's own MCP offering, or importing the Twilio REST API into AnythingMCP yourself and connecting it to Muse.

Twilio + Meta Muse

Twilio's own MCP server

Twilio's official MCP server (public beta, https://mcp.twilio.com/docs) helps coding agents search Twilio's API and documentation. It does not execute API calls, so it cannot send a message or place a call for you; see Twilio's MCP docs.

Step 1 — Get Twilio credentials

Use your Account SID and an API key (SID and secret) from the Twilio Console. An API key is better than the account's Auth Token because you can revoke it on its own.

Step 2 — Import the Twilio API into AnythingMCP

Sign in to AnythingMCP Cloud (7-day free trial) or run your own instance with Docker:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d
  1. Go to Connectors → Add Connector and choose REST API.
  2. Enter https://api.twilio.com as the Base URL.
  3. Paste https://raw.githubusercontent.com/twilio/twilio-oai/main/spec/json/twilio_api_v2010.json into OpenAPI Spec URL.
  4. Under Authentication, choose Basic Auth: the API key SID as username, the key secret as password.
  5. Create the connector. Each operation in the spec becomes a tool; switch off the ones you don't need, so the AI only sees what it should use.
  6. Under MCP Servers, open your server and switch the new connector on.

Twilio publishes one OpenAPI file per product. twilio_api_v2010.json covers messages and calls; other products (Verify, Lookup, Messaging services…) have their own file in the same folder and their own base URL.

What you can expose once it's imported

The tools depend on the endpoints you import. For example:

  • Send an SMS, or a WhatsApp message from a WhatsApp-enabled sender
  • List recent messages and their delivery status
  • Place a call
  • Read call logs

Step 3 — Add the connector in Muse

Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide shows YOUR_SERVER_ID.

Muse adds remote MCP servers as custom connectors and signs in to them with OAuth.

  1. In Muse, open Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
  2. Paste the MCP server URL https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID.
  3. Muse opens the AnythingMCP sign-in page: sign in and approve access.
  4. In a chat, ask Muse for something that needs the Twilio tools you imported.

You can also set it up from a chat, on the web, in the iOS and Android apps or in WhatsApp. Send Muse this message:

Create a Custom Connector for a new remote MCP server, then connect to it:
Name: AnythingMCP
Transport: remote streamable HTTP
URL: https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID
Auth: OAuth

Self-hosting? Use your instance's public HTTPS address instead of https://cloud.anythingmcp.com. Muse connects from Meta's cloud, so localhost does not work.

FAQ

Is there a ready-made Twilio connector in AnythingMCP? Not yet. Twilio is not in the connector catalog, so there is nothing to install in one click: import its API as shown above, or use Twilio's own MCP offering if it covers what you need.

Where is Muse available? Meta currently offers Muse in the US and Canada, on the web, in the iOS and Android apps and in WhatsApp.

Does Meta review this connector? No. Meta doesn't review custom connectors. Muse sees only the tools you switched on for this MCP server in AnythingMCP, and you can disconnect it anytime under Settings → Connectors.
