What the connection does

Give your AI agent a business phone number.

SkipCalls provides the phone number and AI receptionist. Your agent can use SkipCalls tools to set up that receptionist, review calls, and help you decide what happens next.

Answer incoming calls

A SkipCalls receptionist answers on your number, takes messages, and records call details.

Set it up in chat

Ask Claude to inspect your SkipCalls account and guide the receptionist setup.

Stay in control

Review proposed changes and authorize calls or other actions before the agent makes them.

Start here

One prompt to get started.

Copy this into Claude. It tells the agent where to find SkipCalls, asks it to verify the connection, and keeps setup decisions with you.

First, create or sign in to your SkipCalls account in your browser. Your agent can guide the rest of setup through MCP.

Paste into Claude
Help me give Claude a business phone voice with SkipCalls.

If I am new to SkipCalls, open https://app.skipcalls.com/ and let me create an account and sign in securely in the browser. I will handle passwords, email confirmation, OAuth consent, and payment there. Do not ask me to paste credentials or payment details into chat.

In Claude, open Customize > Connectors > Add custom connector, name it SkipCalls, add the server URL, and let me complete OAuth authorization in the browser. Enable the connector in this conversation. Use the SkipCalls remote MCP server at https://be.skipcalls.com/mcp. Once authorized, call getOverview and onboardingProcess with action=status. If the connector or sign-in fails, report the exact blocker and stop. A prompt alone does not grant tool access.

Follow the next step returned by onboardingProcess, one step at a time, and recheck status after each step. Use the tool's category list for my Business Profile. Ask for missing business facts and show me the exact profile before saving it. For billing, show the exact plan, price, billing period, and trial terms. Only after I approve, create the Stripe checkout link; let me complete checkout in the browser, then recheck status. Propose the receptionist name, greeting, and business-specific call instructions for my approval. Create or complete the receptionist through onboardingProcess and verify that a phone number was assigned. Offer Google or Outlook calendar connection if I want it. Then explain how to forward my existing business line if needed.

Finish with a short readback of the business profile, subscription, receptionist, phone number, and any remaining step. Do not place calls, send messages, or change an existing configuration without showing me the exact action first. Do not claim the setup works until the tools confirm it.

How to connect

Your agent needs access to the SkipCalls MCP tools before it can work with your receptionist.

  1. 1

    Create your SkipCalls account

    Register or sign in at app.skipcalls.com. Account sign-in stays in your browser; Claude can guide the remaining setup through MCP.

  2. 2

    Add the Claude connector

    In Claude, open Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector. Name it SkipCalls, enter https://be.skipcalls.com/mcp, then connect and authorize.

  3. 3

    Finish setup in chat

    Paste the prompt. Claude checks onboarding status, collects your Business Profile, hands off approved billing to Stripe, creates the receptionist and number, and offers calendar setup.

Before you begin

Can Claude finish SkipCalls setup?

Claude can call SkipCalls onboardingProcess after the MCP connector is authorized. You complete account sign-in, OAuth consent, and Stripe checkout in the browser; Claude guides the other steps.

SkipCalls answers calls through its AI receptionist. Claude can configure that receptionist and review call information using SkipCalls tools.
