Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check MCP Twilio every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add mcp-twilio -- npx -y @codespar/mcp-twilio

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID (Twilio Account SID (starts with AC...). Used as username for HTTP Basic auth.), TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN (Twilio Auth Token. Used as password for HTTP Basic auth.), TWILIO_MESSAGING_SERVICE_SID (Optional default Messaging Service SID (starts with MG...) used for send_message when From is omitted.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

MCP Twilio — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP Twilio?
MCP Twilio runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @codespar/mcp-twilio was installed 31 times last week.
How do I connect MCP Twilio?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @codespar/mcp-twilio straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use MCP Twilio?
The npm package @codespar/mcp-twilio was installed 31 times in the last week. Week over week that is +121%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is MCP Twilio open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 271 stars on GitHub and 8 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
