Twist

Overview

Twist is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: MCP server for Twist team messaging — manage channels, threads, and messages. In practice that means any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call Twist's tools directly — the model decides when to use them in a conversation or agent run.

It runs locally: the npm package twist-mcp-server speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. Configuration happens through environment variables — you'll need TWIST_BEARER_TOKEN, TWIST_WORKSPACE_ID. The current release is v0.2.3, published under the MIT license, with source at pulsemcp/mcp-servers on GitHub, where it has earned 80 stars.

Twist is listed under Communication on mcp.site and works with any MCP client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed and the rest of the ecosystem — using the install snippets below.
