Twilio MCP — Auth Setup

This MCP requires API key. Follow your provider's documentation to obtain them.

1. Get your credentials

Visit the Twilio MCP documentation or developer dashboard to generate API key. Never paste credentials into our site — add them directly to your shell environment.

2. Set environment variables

macOS / Linux — add to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc:

export TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=YOUR_VALUE_HERE
export TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=YOUR_VALUE_HERE

Windows — run in Command Prompt (then restart your terminal):

setx TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID "YOUR_VALUE_HERE"
setx TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN "YOUR_VALUE_HERE"

3. Verify

npx claude-skills doctor

You should see ✅ next to the Twilio MCP entry.

4. Restart Claude Code

Quit and reopen Claude Code, then run /mcp list to confirm the MCP appears.
