What the skill teaches
A Twilio skill that teaches an agent to use the Twilio command-line tool instead of writing application code when a task can be done directly. It covers installing the CLI, credential profiles, buying and configuring phone numbers, sending SMS, sending email through SendGrid (which needs a SendGrid API key), setting webhooks, local development through a tunnel, watching logs for debugging, serverless deployment, plugins, and regional routing. It also lists what the CLI cannot do, for example sending Twilio Email through the comms API. It needs a Twilio account and the CLI installed.
Capabilities
- Manage Twilio credential profiles from the terminal
- Buy and configure phone numbers with the CLI
- Send SMS and SendGrid email from the CLI
- Debug with CLI logs and watch
- Deploy Twilio serverless functions
