Perplexity

Trigger outbound calls from shell scripts using this MCP Server

The `send_phone_call` tool lets you execute outbound calls directly from a terminal prompt or bash script. Claude Code queries `list_phone_numbers` to find an available outbound line and starts the call. This makes it easy to integrate phone alerts into your deployment pipelines. If a production server goes down, Claude Code can trigger a phone call to alert the on-call engineer with a custom voice message.

Audit your calling history via CLI

You use `list_recent_calls` to fetch recent call logs and pipe the output to other command-line utilities. Claude Code can pull down a specific call, run `analyze_call_transcript`, and print a summarized report right to stdout. This terminal-first approach is perfect for cron jobs that audit daily support calls. You can schedule Claude Code to run every night, analyze the transcripts, and save the summaries to a local markdown file.

Manage voice agents from your terminal

The `list_voice_agents` tool gives you a quick terminal view of all your active voice personas. If you need to clean up old testing configurations, Claude Code can call `delete_voice_agent` to remove them instantly. You can also update agent settings using `update_agent_config` by passing JSON payloads directly from your CLI. There is no need to log into a web dashboard to manage your voice infrastructure.
