Monitor ICTBroadcast outbound campaigns, and start and stop them when writes are on.

Developer ToolsTypeScriptv0.1.0

ictbroadcast-mcp

A Model Context Protocol server for ICTBroadcast — the voice, SMS and fax broadcasting and call-center platform from ICT Innovations.

It lets an AI assistant monitor outbound campaigns — list them, check status, read summaries and per-call results — and, only when you turn writes on, start and stop them.

Install

npx -y ictbroadcast-mcp      # no install
npm install -g ictbroadcast-mcp

Requires Node.js 18 or newer.

Configure

Claude Desktop example

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ictbroadcast": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "ictbroadcast-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ICTBROADCAST_BASE_URL": "https://your-ictbroadcast",
        "ICTBROADCAST_USERNAME": "admin",
        "ICTBROADCAST_PASSWORD": "your-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Tools

Read tools are always available:

ToolWhat it does
ictbroadcast_list_campaignsList campaigns (id and name)
ictbroadcast_campaign_statusLive status of a campaign (running, stopped)
ictbroadcast_campaign_summaryTotals: answered, failed, human vs machine
ictbroadcast_campaign_resultPer-call results (contact, response, AMD, DNC)

Write tools appear only when ICTBROADCAST_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE=true:

ToolWhat it does
ictbroadcast_start_campaignLaunch a campaign — begins live outbound calling
ictbroadcast_stop_campaignStop a running campaign

Safety

The server is read-only by default. Starting a campaign begins live outbound calling and can cost real money, so ictbroadcast_start_campaign and ictbroadcast_stop_campaign are not registered at all unless you set ICTBROADCAST_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE=true.

How it connects

ICTBroadcast exposes a form-encoded RPC API at {base}/rest/<Method>. Each call carries the account username and password; the server sends those for you. There is no separate token to provision. (The ICTBroadcast REST API is bundled with the Service Provider edition.)
