AI agents often need real phone capabilities—texting users, placing voice calls, or receiving verification codes—but integrating telephony APIs requires HTTP plumbing, credential management, and event handling. This Skill provides the operational reference for the dial CLI, which wraps the Dial platform (getdial.ai) so an agent can perform phone-shaped tasks directly from the command line.
dial message, place AI-handled voice calls with dial call, and poll results with dial call get.dial wait-for, enabling receipt of OTP and verification codes.dial number commands.dial wait-for message.received -f channel=sms, parses the code from the inbound SMS, and completes the registration.Ask the agent to text a message to a phone number, for example: "Text +14155550123 that the meeting moved to 3pm."

Use the dial CLI with the message command: dial message --to +14155550123 --body "your text" --from-number <your wired line>. Phone numbers must be in E.164 format, and adding --json gives machine-readable output for scripting.
Run dial wait-for message.received -f channel=sms to long-poll the Dial API for an inbound text, then parse the code from the message body. It works without any background daemon since the CLI polls the API directly.
Yes, dial call --to <number> --outbound-instruction "..." places a call handled by an AI voice agent, with an optional --voice-gender flag. Afterward, dial call get <id> retrieves the result, or dial wait-for call.ended notifies you when it finishes.
This environment has no saved default sender, so omitting --from-number causes the command to fail outright. Always pass the install's wired line explicitly rather than picking a number from dial number list, which is ordered newest-first and unrelated to the wired line.
A 403 blocked_by_policy means the operator did not grant this agent Dial access, and a 401 means the operator's Dial credential is missing or invalid in the vault. Neither is fixable from inside the sandbox—report it to the operator and stop rather than retrying.
