# Use CallForMe in Kiro

> Add a callforme entry with url https://callforme.tel/mcp to ~/.kiro/settings/mcp.json, or to .kiro/settings/mcp.json in a workspace. Accept the one-time Authenticate prompt; no email or card. Kiro's agent can then plan calls and look up businesses, and shows one setup link on the first call.

Kiro supports remote MCP servers in its IDE and CLI.

## Install

Open the Kiro panel, go to **MCP Servers**, and click the edit icon, or edit `~/.kiro/settings/mcp.json` directly:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "callforme": {
      "url": "https://callforme.tel/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Kiro reconnects when you save. A workspace file at `.kiro/settings/mcp.json` overrides the global one.

## Connecting your account

After you save, Kiro shows an **Authenticate** prompt for callforme. Accept it. A browser tab opens and closes by itself. There's no email, no form and no card. That creates your CallForMe account.

## Your first call

The only other step comes once, the first time your agent places a real call. CallForMe answers with a short setup link like `https://callforme.tel/go/k7m2q`, and your agent shows it to you.

1. Open the link. It shows the exact call about to be placed: who, what number, and the goal.
2. Add $10. Your card is saved and auto-reloads, so you won't see this page again. Creators can claim credit with their email instead.
3. The page says you're done. Tell your agent to continue, and the phone starts ringing.

After that, every chat and every session just calls. If you later add CallForMe to a second agent, its first call link recognizes you (when you're signed in on that browser) and links it to your account in one click, with no second payment. More in [how setup links work](/docs/setup-links).

Want to test it first? Ask your agent to call Maple Street Pizza, a fictional restaurant, at (469) 770-7412. Demo calls are free, with no payment, up to 5 a day.

## If the Connect step doesn't show up

If your version of Kiro can't do OAuth sign-in, use one of these instead:

- `https://callforme.tel/mcp/open` needs no sign-in. Your agent gets a setup link in each new session unless it saves the `account_key` it receives.
- A personal URL, `https://callforme.tel/mcp/k/<your key>`, or `"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${CALLFORME_KEY}" }` (Kiro expands environment variables), using a key you create on the [account page](https://callforme.tel/account).

## Try it

Paste this into Kiro:

> Call Westside Auto Glass and move my windshield appointment from Tuesday to any time Thursday. Name on it is Priya Shah.

## FAQ

### Does Kiro CLI use the same file?

Yes, Kiro CLI reads the same MCP config locations.

### Can I use autoApprove?

Yes. Add "autoApprove": ["plan_call", "find_business", "get_call"] to skip prompts on read-only tools while keeping place_call manual.
