# ictbroadcast-mcp
A [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server for
**[ICTBroadcast](https://ictbroadcast.com)** — the voice, SMS and fax broadcasting
and call-center platform from [ICT Innovations](https://ictinnovations.com).
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
```bash
npx -y ictbroadcast-mcp # no install
npm install -g ictbroadcast-mcp
```
Requires Node.js 18 or newer.
## Configure
| Variable | Required | Default | |
|----------|----------|---------|--|
| `ICTBROADCAST_BASE_URL` | yes | | Server base URL, without the `/rest` suffix, e.g. `https://your-ictbroadcast` |
| `ICTBROADCAST_USERNAME` | yes | | API account username |
| `ICTBROADCAST_PASSWORD` | yes | | Password for that account |
| `ICTBROADCAST_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE` | no | `false` | Unlock start/stop campaign (see Safety) |
| `ICTBROADCAST_TIMEOUT_MS` | no | `30000` | Per-request timeout |
| `ICTBROADCAST_TLS_INSECURE` | no | `false` | Skip TLS verification — self-signed test servers only |
### Claude Desktop example
```json
{
"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:
| Tool | What it does |
|------|--------------|
| `ictbroadcast_list_campaigns` | List campaigns (id and name) |
| `ictbroadcast_campaign_status` | Live status of a campaign (running, stopped) |
| `ictbroadcast_campaign_summary` | Totals: answered, failed, human vs machine |
| `ictbroadcast_campaign_result` | Per-call results (contact, response, AMD, DNC) |
Write tools appear only when `ICTBROADCAST_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE=true`:
| Tool | What it does |
|------|--------------|
| `ictbroadcast_start_campaign` | Launch a campaign — begins live outbound calling |
| `ictbroadcast_stop_campaign` | Stop 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.)
