# Connect Teamwork and Twilio

When **New Milestone** fires in [Teamwork](https://apiant.ai/connections/teamwork), your agent runs **Schedule Message** in [Twilio](https://apiant.ai/connections/twilio), or **New Call** in Twilio to **Create Task** in Teamwork. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want Teamwork and Twilio to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

[Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code)

### Claude, web and desktop

Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Cursor

Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Zed

Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app

Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

Connecting Twilio and Teamwork puts phone activity where the work is tracked. Inbound texts and calls on your Twilio numbers can open tasks, log time and post messages on the right Teamwork project, while new milestones and people in Teamwork can trigger a scheduled text or a number lookup. Both apps stay useful on their own; the link keeps the record in one place.

Questions

## Teamwork and Twilio, answered

###

### Can a call to our Twilio number open work in Teamwork automatically?

Yes. The New Incoming Call trigger in Twilio fires when a selected number rings, and the agent can use Create Task in Teamwork so the caller's number is on a task in the list you pick. The agent tests every scenario before it goes live.

###

### Can we text someone about a Teamwork milestone before the date arrives?

Yes. The New Milestone trigger in Teamwork can feed Schedule Message in Twilio, which sends the text later through one of your Messaging Services. If plans change, a scheduled message that has not gone out can still be canceled with Update Message.

###

### What can start an automation from Teamwork?

Any of Teamwork's 6 triggers in the catalog, including New Milestone, New Person, New Company and New Project. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Twilio when something happens in Teamwork?

Any of Twilio's 11 actions, including Lookup Phone Number, Schedule Message, Update Message and Update Phone Number. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Twilio to Teamwork?

Yes. When something happens in Twilio, your agent can act in Teamwork too. This page covers both directions: Twilio's triggers and Teamwork's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Teamwork or Twilio?

No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

###

### Can my AI client use Teamwork and Twilio without building an automation?

Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.

###

### What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
