Details
From the project READMESakari MCP by usefulapi
Use Sakari from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — look up contacts, conversations, messages, templates, campaigns and calls, and create contacts and templates, close conversations and send texts. Sending a text costs your Sakari balance, so clients should confirm it first. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own Sakari credentials.
Live endpoint: https://sakari.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/sakari

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
