Textmagic MCP connector

The Textmagic connector brings your dedicated numbers, sender IDs, subaccounts, and team users into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client through one governed endpoint, so each person works inside their own Textmagic access with every action logged.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect Textmagic to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Two steps, about a minute.

1

In Elaichi

Connect Textmagic once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Textmagic.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Paste a Textmagic API key. One person generates a token in Textmagic and pastes it once. Everyone else works through Share with, and never sees it.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

Use cases

What teams do with Textmagic through Elaichi

Every one of these runs inside the access the person already has, and lands in the same audit log.

  • Marketing

    Pick a dedicated number for a campaign

    Ask which Textmagic numbers are available in a given country, choose one, and add it to the account before the campaign goes live. Retire the number afterward without opening Textmagic.

  • Support

    Set up a branded sender ID

    Create a sender ID for the help desk so customers recognize who is texting them, and check the sender settings that apply to it.

  • Operations

    Open a subaccount for a new region

    List the existing Textmagic subaccounts, spot which regions or brands already have one, and create a new subaccount for the team that is launching next.

  • IT

    Keep team users current in one pass

    Review every user on the Textmagic account, update details for several people at once, and clear out old avatars when roles change.

  • Compliance

    Check country rules before a send

    Pull the list of countries Textmagic supports and the current sender settings, so the team knows which sender types are allowed where before anything goes out.

  • Sales

    Review number lookups before outreach

    Bring up the phone number lookups already run in Textmagic, along with timezones, so reps know which numbers are valid and when it is a reasonable hour to reach them.

Try asking

  • “Which Textmagic numbers are unused this month?”
  • “List Textmagic users added since last Monday.”
  • “Show sender settings for our Textmagic support number.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Textmagic to Claude?

Connect Textmagic in Elaichi first, which asks for your Textmagic API key, and there is no client ID or secret to generate. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. From that point Claude can work with your Textmagic numbers, sender IDs, subaccounts, and users as you, and short concrete asks tend to get the right result faster than long sentences.

Does Textmagic work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Textmagic is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Textmagic once and every client you sign into picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Textmagic data?

An agent connected to Textmagic can show which dedicated numbers are available in a country, add or remove a number, create or remove a sender ID, and open or close a subaccount. It can also list the users on the account and update several of them at once, read sender settings, and check the countries, timezones, and phone number lookups already in Textmagic. Everything it does is something you could do yourself in Textmagic, phrased in plain language.

Does connecting Textmagic give the AI access to every subaccount and user?

No. The agent works with whatever the person who signed in can already see in Textmagic, including only the subaccounts and users their own account covers. Elaichi can narrow that further for a team or a person, but it can never widen it past what Textmagic itself allows that person.

Can my team share one Textmagic connection?

Yes. One person connects Textmagic in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the person who added a number or created a subaccount, not the person who connected the account.

Can I stop an agent from deleting numbers or subaccounts in Textmagic?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can allow listing and creating in Textmagic while blocking deletion of numbers, sender IDs, or subaccounts. A blocked action is never shown to Claude, ChatGPT, or any other client, so no prompt can reach it.

What happens to a Textmagic connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Textmagic through every client at once. If they connected a shared Textmagic account, that connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. Disconnecting Textmagic once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client together.

Does the Textmagic MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Textmagic is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Textmagic?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Textmagic. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Textmagic call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Textmagic?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Textmagic: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
