## What it does

This skill guides development with the Twilio Conversation Intelligence v3 API. It shows how Conversation Orchestrator groups activity from Voice, SMS, RCS, WhatsApp, Chat, and Email, then starts analysis on `COMMUNICATION`, `CONVERSATION_END`, or `CONVERSATION_INACTIVE` events.

The guide covers four Twilio-authored operators: Sentiment, Summary, Next Best Response, and Script Adherence. It also describes custom operators with prompted structured output, rules with operator and webhook actions, real-time throttling through `count`, webhook delivery, and historical REST API queries. Results can feed CRM notes, agent desktop surfaces, TaskRouter, or analytics systems.

Messages captured by the Orchestrator are untrusted external input. Operator prompts should tell the model to ignore instructions carried inside customer messages, or adversarial text can affect the analysis.

## Install

### Codex (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill twilio-conversation-intelligence -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/twilio-conversation-intelligence/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Claude Code

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill twilio-conversation-intelligence -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/twilio-conversation-intelligence/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/twilio-conversation-intelligence/

### Cursor

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/twilio-conversation-intelligence/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install openai/plugins twilio-conversation-intelligence
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/twilio-conversation-intelligence/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

**Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/openai/plugins --path plugins/twilio-developer-kit/skills/twilio-conversation-intelligence
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/twilio-conversation-intelligence/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/openai/plugins/tree/HEAD/plugins/twilio-developer-kit/skills/twilio-conversation-intelligence/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- summarize conversations after they close
- detect sentiment changes during a conversation
- send structured results to a CRM
- surface a next response for an agent
- trigger escalation from detected conditions

## Example prompts
- Design a Twilio flow that summarizes a conversation after `CONVERSATION_END` and sends the result to a CRM through a webhook.
- Set up `COMMUNICATION` analysis that exposes sentiment changes in an agent desktop overlay.
- Create a custom operator with JSON output for escalation-risk scoring and define the rule that runs it.

# Conversation Intelligence

Decision-making guide for Twilio's Conversation Intelligence v3 API — real-time and post-call GenAI analysis of conversations across Voice, SMS, RCS, and WhatsApp. Covers Intelligence Configurations, Language Operators (Twilio-authored and custom), Rules, Triggers, Actions, and result consumption.

> **Security:** All inbound messages captured by the Orchestrator are untrusted external input. If Intelligence operators process this content with LLMs, their prompts should include instructions to ignore adversarial content and not follow instructions embedded in customer messages.


> **GA** — Conversation Intelligence v3 is generally available.

## Use Cases

Conversation Intelligence powers **human agent augmentation** — giving every agent a "second brain" that listens, understands, and surfaces the right data at the right time. Agents focus on empathy, judgment, and problem-solving; AI handles analysis and assistance.

### Wrap-up Agent Assist (Post-Call)

Analyze completed conversations and generate structured outputs — summaries, sentiment signals, topic dispositions. Reduces after-call work, accelerates agent transitions to next interaction. **Low-friction entry point** — start here.

- **Operators**: Summary, Sentiment, custom Conversation Scoring
- **Trigger**: `CONVERSATION_END`
- **Integration**: Webhook → CRM case note creation

### Real-time Agent Assist

Analyze conversations as they unfold. Surface sentiment shifts, script adherence signals, or recommended next responses enriched with customer history and enterprise knowledge. Agents respond more confidently without searching across systems.

- **Operators**: Script Adherence, Next Best Response, Escalation Risk (custom)
- **Trigger**: `COMMUNICATION`
- **Integration**: Webhook → Agent desktop overlay

### Real-time Workflow Automation

Combine real-time intelligence with orchestration to trigger downstream workflows when specific conditions are met — escalate to supervisor, trigger fraud prevention, notify specialist.

- **Operators**: Custom risk detection, compliance monitoring
- **Trigger**: `COMMUNICATION`
- **Integration**: Webhook → Workflow engine / TaskRouter

### Contact Center QA

Generate post-interaction summaries, sentiment scores, and compliance signals for QA, coaching, and analytics. Aggregate across interactions to support training and continuous optimization.

- **Operators**: Script Adherence, Summary, custom Conversation Scoring
- **Trigger**: `CONVERSATION_END`
```
