Telnyx for AI agents
Telnyx provides voice, messaging, and networking infrastructure that developers wire into their own products, and here lets an agent look up account and network configuration. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Telnyx.
List phone numbers on the account
Pull the numbers provisioned on the account as a read-only inventory check.
Review notification settings
Read current notification profiles and channels before changing how alerts are routed.
Confirm before deleting a network
Check with the user before deleting a network configuration, since active connections would be dropped.
30 Telnyx actions, graded by risk.
Every Telnyx action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Telnyx in three steps.
- 01Your users connect TelnyxThey add their Telnyx api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Network” can wait for the user, and “delete Network” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Telnyx through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('telnyx', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_network destructive: 'deny', // delete_network }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Telnyx connects.
Users add their Telnyx api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
The same Telnyx connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use Telnyx from any agent.
Telnyx and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Telnyx with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Telnyx to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Telnyx actions you allow.
How do users connect Telnyx?
Users add their Telnyx api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
Which Telnyx actions can my agent take?
30 in total: 21 read, 5 write and 4 destructive, such as “create Network”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Telnyx?
Yes. Actions like “delete Network” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Telnyx too?
Yes. The same Telnyx connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Telnyx into your agent.
Your users connect Telnyx once, under your brand. Your agent gets 30 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
