How to send SMS from Msty Claw

This guide walks you through sending an SMS message directly from Msty Claw using the Ozeki SMS MCP server. By following this tutorial, you will learn how to ask the AI to send an SMS in plain language, review the tool result, and verify that the message was delivered through the gateway logs.

What is an MCP tool call?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) tool call is how an AI model communicates with external systems. When the AI needs to perform an action or retrieve data, such as querying a database, calling an API, or reading a file, it sends a structured request to the appropriate MCP server, which processes it and returns the result.
