Quickstart
Add the MCP server https://callforme.tel/mcp to your agent and click Connect when it asks. A tab opens and closes by itself, with no form or card. Try the free demo line first. On your first real call your agent shows one link to add $10, and after that every session just calls.
1. Add the server
Claude Code
From your terminal:
claude mcp add --transport http callforme https://callforme.tel/mcp
Any other MCP agent
Add a remote MCP server (streamable HTTP) with this URL:
https://callforme.tel/mcp
Exact steps for each agent, including Claude Desktop, claude.ai, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Gemini CLI and more, are on the agents page.
No MCP? Use the skill and curl
If your agent can run shell commands, tell it:
Read https://callforme.tel/skill.md and use it to call businesses for me.
The skill walks it through the REST API with curl. See any agent with a shell.
2. Connect once
After you add the URL, your agent shows a Connect or Authenticate step:
- claude.ai and Claude Desktop: click Connect on the connector.
- Claude Code: run
/mcp, pickcallforme, choose Authenticate. - Codex: run
codex mcp login callforme. - Others: a Connect, Login or Authenticate button or prompt appears after you add the server.
A browser tab opens and closes by itself. No email, no form, no card. That creates your CallForMe account.
3. Try it free first
Before calling a real business, ask for a practice call:
Call Maple Street Pizza at (469) 770-7412 and ask if they have a gluten-free crust and how long a large pepperoni takes for pickup.
Maple Street Pizza is a fictional restaurant run by CallForMe. Calls to it are free and need no payment, up to 5 a day. You'll see the whole flow: the call, a question or two mid-call, and the result.
4. Ask for a real call
Say what you want in plain words:
Call the CVS on Preston Road and ask if they're open on Thanksgiving and until what time.
Your agent will usually:
- Use
find_businessto get the phone number and today's hours. - Use
plan_callto preview the opening line, a checklist, and questions the business might ask. - Use
place_callto start the call.
5. One setup link, the first time
The first real call returns:
{
"status": "needs_setup",
"setup_url": "https://callforme.tel/go/k7m2q",
"setup_code": "k7m2q",
"message_for_user": "To place this call, open https://callforme.tel/go/k7m2q and add $10. Then tell me when you're done."
}
Your agent shows you the link. The page shows the exact call it's about to place. Add $10 (your card is saved and auto-reloads), or claim creator credit with your email. The page says "Done, go back to your agent."
Tell your agent you're done. It calls place_call again with the setup_code, and the phone rings. That's the last setup step: every chat and session after this just calls. Adding CallForMe to a second agent later? Its first call link recognizes you and links it to your account in one click, no second payment. More in how setup links work.
6. Get the result
Your agent polls get_call with wait_seconds up to 50 until status is ended. If the business asks something your agent doesn't know, pending_question shows up and your agent replies with answer_question.
The final result includes the transcript, your answers, and an outcome:
{
"status": "ended",
"answers": {
"Are you open on Thanksgiving?": "Yes, 9am to 5pm. Pharmacy counter 10am to 2pm."
},
"outcome": {
"success": true,
"summary": "Store open Thanksgiving 9 to 5, pharmacy 10 to 2.",
"next_steps": "None."
},
"duration_s": 74,
"cost_usd": 1.00
}
Want to show someone? Ask your agent to share the call. share_call makes a public page at https://callforme.tel/c/<id> with phone numbers and emails hidden.
If your client can't connect
Some clients don't support MCP sign-in. Use https://callforme.tel/mcp/open (no sign-in; your agent gets a setup link in each new session unless it saves the account_key it receives), or create a key on the account page and use https://callforme.tel/mcp/k/<your key> or the header Authorization: Bearer cfm_....

Questions
Do I have to sign up before connecting?
No form. When you add the URL, your agent shows a Connect or Authenticate step. A browser tab opens and closes by itself, and that creates your account. No email and no card at that point.
Can I try it without paying?
Yes. Ask your agent to call Maple Street Pizza, a fictional restaurant, at (469) 770-7412. Demo calls are free and need no payment, up to 5 a day.
My agent isn't listed. Can I still use it?
If it supports remote MCP servers, use https://callforme.tel/mcp. If it can run shell commands, point it at https://callforme.tel/skill.md and it will use the REST API with curl.
What does the first real call cost?
$1 if answered, covering the first 5 minutes, then $0.25 per minute. You add $10 to start, the card is saved for auto-reload, and the balance never expires.
