Run Live Voice Calls for Testing

Need to simulate a call flow? You can execute `create_phone_call` right from your terminal environment. This lets you test how your application handles live outbound voice communication using the necessary phone number ID and customer details.

Manage Assistants for Development

Use the MCP Server tools to manage assistants, which is perfect for dev work. You can list all existing personas with `list_assistants`, or create a new one using `create_assistant` when you're building out your system.

Retrieve Call Metrics and Transcripts

After a test run, you need the data. The `get_call_details` tool fetches transcripts and metrics for any specific call ID. This allows Cline to pull actionable data directly into your testing script.
