What is Botcall MCP?
Botcall MCP is a specialized Model Context Protocol server that bridges the gap between autonomous AI agents and services requiring SMS-based identity verification. By leveraging the botcall.io API, this tool allows developers to give their agents a real-world communication layer, enabling them to receive text messages and bypass verification hurdles.
As a robust addition to the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, Botcall MCP simplifies the lifecycle of mobile number management. It handles everything from the initial provisioning of a number based on specific regions to the extraction of sensitive verification codes, making it an essential component for agents performing account creation or automated testing tasks.
Botcall MCP Use Cases
- Automating account registration on platforms that require SMS OTP verification.
- Building autonomous agents capable of interacting with mobile-only services.
- Programmatically monitoring SMS inboxes for transactional alerts or notifications.
- Identity verification for AI-driven QA and software testing workflows.
How Botcall MCP Works
- The AI agent initiates the process by calling the provision_number tool to secure a valid phone number.
- The agent submits this number to the target service's registration or login form.
- The agent calls the get_code tool, which long-polls the Botcall API for up to 30 seconds to detect incoming messages.
- The MCP server automatically parses the SMS body to isolate and extract the verification code.
- The agent receives the code and proceeds to complete the authentication sequence.
Botcall MCP Setup
To integrate this tool into your environment, use the following installation command:
claude mcp add botcall -- npx -y botcall-mcp
Ensure you have an API key from botcall.io. You can set it as an environment variable:
export BOTCALL_API_KEY="bs_live_your_key_here"
For persistent configuration in Claude Desktop, add the server to your claude_desktop_config.json file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"botcall": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "botcall-mcp"],
"env": {
"BOTCALL_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
}
}
}
}
Botcall MCP Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill interacts with the Botcall API and organizes data using the following tool-based schema:
| Tool | Primary Data Handled |
|---|---|
| provision_number | Returns phone number, country code, and ID. |
| get_inbox | Returns a list of SMS messages with sender and timestamp. |
| get_code | Returns the specific extracted OTP string. |
| get_usage | Returns account balance, plan type, and usage statistics. |
Botcall MCP Advanced Features
- Intelligent OTP extraction that filters verification codes from noise in the SMS body.
- Long-polling capabilities to ensure agents don't miss time-sensitive messages.
- Regional number provisioning allowing agents to appear as local users in specific countries.
- Seamless integration with other Openclaw Skills for complex, multi-step automation pipelines.
