volai in Claude Code: one command and your agent can call
The volai MCP server gives Claude Code phone calls and SMS. Just say what you want, and the agent picks the right tool and calls it - right from the command line.
1Create an account and a key
Sign up for volai and verify your email - your credit only lands on the account after that. Then, in the portal under API and MCP, create a new key: it starts with vk_ and works for the REST API too.
2Add volai as an MCP server
Run one command in your terminal - it registers volai as a remote HTTP server and saves the key straight into Claude Code's config:
claude mcp add --transport http volai https://volai.cz/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer vk_YOUR_KEY"3Verify the connection
Ask Claude Code something like "Check how much credit I have left" - if it answers with a number instead of asking for an API key, volai is connected correctly.
4Try your first call
Tell your editor "Call me and try the role of a cafe receptionist" - Claude Code calls the make_call tool with a systemPrompt parameter and starts a trial call from volai's shared demo number, no number of your own required. It needs a verified email and tops out at 3 trial calls a day per account - past that, call through your own agent (agentId) on your own number, since the trial limit doesn't apply there.
Or add volai to your editor in one click
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http volai https://volai.cz/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer vk_YOUR_KEY"After installing, replace vk_YOUR_KEY with your key from the API and MCP section of the portal.
What you can do with it
Place a call straight from a prompt
Say who to call and why, and Claude Code runs the call with the make_call tool - no switching to your phone or the portal, and it works the same from a non-interactive script.
Manage numbers and agents by prompt
buy_number, create_agent, set_number_routing - setting up a phone line feels as natural as writing code, one prompt at a time.
Debug calls without leaving the window
When something's off, have Claude Code call get_call with the call ID and get the transcript and summary right away, no portal required.
