RubiConnect Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server

The official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for RubiConnect — the enterprise platform for RCS (Rich Communication Services) and WhatsApp Business messaging.

Connect external AI assistants (such as Claude Desktop, Claude.ai, Cursor, ChatGPT, and autonomous agent pipelines) directly to your RubiConnect messaging workspace to check phone reachability, send rich cards and carousels, trigger bulk campaigns, inspect live inbox conversations, and query messaging analytics.

⚡ Quick Start

1. Claude Desktop & Claude.ai (Recommended: Native In-App Connector)

RubiConnect supports zero-terminal OAuth 2.0 with PKCE inside Claude:

1. In Claude Desktop or Claude.ai, open Settings > Connectors > Add Custom Connector.

2. Enter the Server URL:

   https://console.rubiconnect.com/api/mcp

3. When prompted by the OAuth connector modal:

   • Client ID: Paste your RubiConnect API Key (e.g. rc_live_...).

   • Client Secret: Leave empty.

4. Authorize in the browser window. All 18 messaging tools will become immediately available in Claude.

2. Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json)

If you configure Claude Desktop via its JSON file:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Add the following under mcpServers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rubiconnect": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "rubiconnect-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "RUBI_API_KEY": "rc_live_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note for macOS GUI apps: If Claude reports command not found: npx, replace "command": "npx" with your absolute path (e.g. "/opt/homebrew/bin/npx" or "/usr/local/bin/npx").

3. Cursor IDE

In Cursor, open Cursor Settings > Features > MCP Servers > Add New MCP Server:

• Name: RubiConnect

• Type: sse

• URL: https://console.rubiconnect.com/api/mcp

• Headers:

  {
    "Authorization": "Bearer rc_live_your_api_key_here"
  }

4. Smithery (1-Click Install)

npx -y @smithery/cli install rubiconnect-mcp --client claude

5. OpenAI Custom GPTs & Enterprise Agent Orchestrators

In the Custom GPT Editor or Agent framework:
