## What it does

The skill directs coding assistants to place synthetic voice calls using endpoints at `https://stablephone.dev`. Every paid action runs via `npx agentcash@latest fetch` using x402 transactions. You provide prompt instructions up to 4000 characters, select a voice profile like `josh` or `nat`, and set call durations.

Dialing is strictly limited to North American `+1` numbers in E.164 format. If a recipient is registered on a Do-Not-Call list, the endpoint responds with HTTP 403 and must not be retried. Outbound calls run at $0.54 each, while a dedicated caller ID line costs $20.00 for a 30-day term.

An async lookup tool checks if a target phone supports iMessage or FaceTime for $0.05. Status updates stream back through a polling token. Without an active `agentcash` wallet setup, all payment-gated requests fail immediately.
