What problem does it solve?
This skill solves the problem of setting up reliable two-way phone calling with an AI assistant so you can place outbound calls, receive inbound calls, and access full call transcripts.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Twilio-enabled outbound calling: Initiate calls with a clear objective (task) and optional context for the assistant’s agent.
- Automatic inbound receptionist mode: Answer incoming calls, route questions to the user when guardian verification is required, and handle follow-ups.
- Live-call steering and monitoring: Poll call status, end calls early, and send real-time instruction to adjust call behavior during an active session.
- Transcript access support: Retrieve past call transcripts for review and debugging via the provided reference workflow.
Quick Start
Enable calling by confirming Twilio with twilio-setup, turning on calls.enabled, then telling the assistant to make a test call to your phone to verify voice, connectivity, and end-to-end flow.
