voicehook

Append one line (3-8 words) to the activity feed on the call page, shown as a timestamped line. Never spoken. context and faq: hidden background of this line for the voicebot.

Teach the call's speech recognition words it keeps mishearing (product names, people, jargon). Adds to the vocabulary of the account that pays for this call (add only: never deletes, never returns the account's list; the person manages it on their account page). terms: words to recognize; fixes: {wrong, right} = a known mishearing and the correct word (right is added to the terms too). Max 20 entries per call of this tool, 100 per call, 50 characters each. Corrections apply right away, the word list from the next sentence or the next call. 409: guest call without an account. Returns added {terms, fixes}, total, call_left, reloaded.

Phone the human who owns this call on their own confirmed phone number, e.g. when a long task is done, you are stuck, or you need a decision and they are not on the call page. You never pass a number. Their account rules decide (opt-in, allowed reasons, quiet hours, calls per day, budget, credit); a refusal returns {status: refused, why}. Otherwise returns {status: answered|no_answer|busy|failed|insufficient, phone_call_id, billed_eur} after the call. reason: done | blocked | decision. message: max 200 characters, said when they pick up.

Start a new voicehook.ai voice call. `lang` = the language of the person being called (de or en, default de). Returns `human_url` (the link for the person; whoever opens it starts the call, on their own free allowance or credit), `share_text` (a ready message with human_url and the hint that the link needs a normal browser, because an app's built-in browser blocks the microphone), `operator_invite_url` (the agent's own link for `join`), `room` and `expires_in` (seconds until an unopened link expires, 30 min); `local_cli_hint` only for a local client with a shell (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and similar). join with operator_invite_url waits for the person (up to 200 s in Claude clients, else 50 s) and returns waiting_for_human with `next_action` until they open human_url; it can be repeated until the link expires (410), also from a background job over the HTTPS bridge. Errors: 429 = too many new calls right now. Hard rule: after create_call, show share_text to your user as text first, then call join at once and repeat it until it returns `session` (or start a background job that joins over the HTTPS bridge and wakes you); never end your turn before that. Then keep calling next in a loop.

Put a question for the person on the call's Decision Board (shown as #number with buttons; the person can also answer by voice, also freely). Meant for every question the person decides: yes/no, A/B, an approval, picking a value. A question only spoken via say leaves no button and no decision event. Without options it is a yes/no question (buttons Yes/No); options: 2 to 3, max 40 characters each, recommend = index of the recommended option. question: max 160 characters. Longer or more: 422, never cut. Returns id and number. The answer arrives later as a `next` event {type: decision, id, number, verdict: yes|no|option|other|unclear, option?, text? (their own answer, or for unclear the request to ask it again more simply), by}. context: the background the person opens with the arrow next to the question on the card and Delta uses to explain it, only what the reader needs, nothing internal, one short line per part (Was / Warum / Bei Ja / Bei Nein, or What / Why / If yes / If no; lines starting with '- ' show as bullet points); faq: the 3 likely follow-up questions with prepared answers, shown below it as questions and answers. Without context and faq the card shows no arrow; without context and 3 faq the result carries `warnings` (no error). Change an open one with id plus new fields, remove it with id and delete true. no_question = id of a question_check event, alone: confirms that line was no question to the person. Decisions marked auto (detected automatically) are answered only by a human; changing or deleting them gives 403.

Lists every OPEN decision on the call's Decision Board, from all agents in the call and their helper sessions (relay, MCP, bridge), oldest number first. Returns count and open: [{id, number, question, options, recommend, agent, from (asking label, with the helper name), sender? (helper session), state, at (created, epoch), age_s, mine (asked by this session or one of its helpers), context? (background, also shown on the card behind the arrow)}]. Also recent: the last decided ones, newest first (same fields plus verdict, option, text, by, decided_age_s; auto = put on the board by the server), and boards: every helper session's status board in the room [{from, name, doing, open, done, state?, age_s (since its last update), meta? (context/faq, shortened)}], newest first: read-only overview for the main agent. Errors: 503 = voicebot not (yet) in the call.

For a helper session that is not in the call: appends one line (3-8 words) to the call's activity feed as 'Helper <label>: <helper_name>: <text>'. Never spoken verbatim. context and faq: hidden background of this line for the voicebot. Returns the line.

For the agent in the call (`session`): returns a helper credential `token` (with `url` and `expires_in`) that lets other sessions working for the same person add their own status board, decisions and activity lines to this call without joining (no voice, no chip). `label` = name of the helper's machine, max 22 chars, shown as 'Helper <label>: <helper_name>'. rotate true makes every earlier helper credential of this call invalid. The credential works only for the helper_* tools and /api/activity/relay*, never for say or join, and ends with the call.

For a helper session that is not in the call: puts its own question on the Decision Board, shown with the sender 'Helper <label>: <helper_name>'. Same fields and limits as decide (question max 160 chars, 2-3 options max 40 chars each, recommend = index, context = background shown behind the arrow next to the question and used by Delta, faq = 3 follow-up questions with prepared answers; without them the result carries warnings). Change or delete only own questions (same credential and from), else 403. Returns id and number; the answer comes from helper_next, never from the main agent's next.

For a helper session that is not in the call: returns the answers to its own questions (same credential and helper_name) as events [{type: decision, id, number, verdict: yes|no|option|other, option?, text?, by}], plus question_check events (a status or activity line of this helper reads like a question to the person: id, quote, wait_s, text; answered by helper_decide with the question or with no_question = id), plus user_turn events (the person addressed this helper by name in the call: text as transcribed, to, ts), waiting up to `timeout` seconds (0-25) when none is there. At most 50 kept per helper, gone when the call ends.

For a helper session that is not in the call: puts a card on the person's call page (never spoken), shown with the sender 'Helper <label>: <helper_name>'. kind: text (default), code, link (exactly one http(s) URL) or image (`image` = SVG text or base64 PNG/JPEG/WebP, never a URL). Same checks and limits as show: text 4000 chars, title 80, SVG 300 KB, raster 1024 KB, at most 10 images a minute. An image returns ok only after a call page loaded it (shown = number of pages); otherwise an error says why (nobody in the call, image did not load). Files: kind pdf, csv or md with `data` = base64 and `name` (pdf max 10 MB, csv/md max 2 MB); the server shows and confirms them itself.

For a helper session that is not in the call: sets its own status board on the call page, shown as 'Helper <label>: <helper_name>' below the main agent; the main agent's board stays as it is. Same limits as status (doing max 400 chars, open / done max 10 items). meta: Per entry hidden background for the voicebot, never shown on the page: context (max 2000 chars) and faq (up to 3 follow-up questions with prepared answers). Without context and 3 faq on an entry the result carries `warnings` (no error). Empty doing, open and done removes the helper's board. Returns ok and, when context or faq is missing on an entry, warnings.

Connect to a voicehook.ai voice call as the agent behind its voicebot. invite_url: the full invite link including ?invite= (from the person or from create_call). label: the text on the agent's chip in the call, max 22 characters (longer is rejected). model: the model id the agent runs on (internal, not shown). greet (default true): the voicebot speaks a short greeting with the label in the call language right after the join (or when the person is back, if they are out). Returns `session` (the handle for every other tool, valid until the call ends, after 10 min without next or say, or after leave), `room`, `lang` (call language), `idle_timeout_s`, `peers`, `humans_present` (people in the call; 0 plus `human_away` = the person is out right now), `solo` (true = solo call: the voicebot speaks as you, in your voice, first person; other agents may join with their own voices) and `context` (lang, mode, functions, skill_url, status_every = seconds between the voicebot's status summaries). With a link from create_call, join waits for the person (up to 200 s in Claude clients, else 50 s, with progress every 10 s) and then returns status waiting_for_human (not an error, with share_text and `next_action`) while the link is still unopened. `local_cli_hint` only for a local client with a shell (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and similar). Errors: 403 invalid invite, 409 no person in the room, 410 link expired or call over, 429 too many joins, 503 server restarting (the call stays valid). MCP and bridge connect one agent to the call; activity lines are only what that agent writes. For several agents or sessions on one machine in one call, the voicehook-agent CLI (pro tool) feeds the live activity log, status and decisions of all local sessions into the call automatically; MCP and bridge run on the server and cannot see the user's local sessions. Hard rule: after create_call, show share_text to your user as text first, then call join at once and repeat it until it returns `session`…

Leave the call (optionally speaking `say` first, e.g. a short goodbye). The session handle is invalid afterwards.

Wait (up to `timeout` seconds, max 50) for the next event in the call and return it. Event `type`: user (`text` = what the person said; after a pause also `missed` = earlier turns, oldest first, and `away_s`), revise (queued says were replaced; reason user_stop = the person said stop; reason stale + stale:true = your says waited over 60 s unspoken and were dropped (items = seq + text): do not repeat them, if still relevant say ONE short current summary), status_request (the person asked what the agent is doing), decision (answer to a decide question: id, number, verdict yes|no|option|other, option, text, by), helper_decision (the human answered a helper session's question: from, label, id, number, question, verdict, option, text, by; a routing hint, never speak or answer it: send it to that session so it continues), question_check (a status or activity line of this agent reads like a question to the person: id, quote, wait_s, text; answered by decide with the question, or by decide with no_question = id; without either, after wait_s the server puts it on the Decision Board itself, marked as detected automatically, answered only by a human), timeout (nothing happened; reconnect true = server restart), human_left / human_rejoined (the person dropped out / is back; greeted true = the join greeting was just spoken), voicebot_left / voicebot_back (the voicebot dropped out, e.g. a server update; a new one usually joins within ~20 s, says are not heard until then / it is back after `seconds`, say works again), operator (another agent addressed this one: addressed_to_you), data (another agent sent data with send_data: from, kind, payload or url + file_id; never spoken), context (the call language changed, new context), superseded (a newer next call replaced this one), ended (the call is over; detail live_budget, wallet_empty, free_limit or review_budget = budget used up (quota), unspoken says were dropped). Every answer has `humans_present`; user events and `operators_said…

Reach the human who owns this call when they are not on the call page: an SMS to their own confirmed number with a single-use link back into this call (valid 10 min, opens only logged in or with the PIN from the SMS); if they do not open it within 2 minutes, a phone call follows. Prefer this over call_me. Their account rules decide (opt-in, reasons, quiet hours, per day, budget, credit); a refusal returns {status: refused, why}. Otherwise {status: sms_sent|sms_failed|insufficient, phone_call_id, billed_eur, link_valid_s, fallback_call_in_s}. reason: done | blocked | decision. message: max 120 characters, in the SMS.

The voicebot speaks `text` aloud in the call (verbatim in normal mode; in a live room the voice rephrases it and the answer has verbatim false, mode live_paraphrase). mode: append (default, queued after earlier says), overwrite (replaces this agent's says that have not started yet), revise (like overwrite, and next then returns a revise event). Returns ok and seq.

Send JSON, text or a file to other agents in this call (silent data channel: never spoken, never shown to the human, never to the voicebot; the human only sees one activity line 'Data to B: name (size)'). to: the other agent's label (as on its chip), its identity, or "*" for all other agents; unknown -> 404 with the labels in the call. kind json: payload any JSON; text: payload a string; file: payload = base64 of the file plus name and mime, or file_id of a file uploaded with the REST endpoint POST /api/bridge/upload (files over about 11 KB, up to 10 MB). The whole packet is max 15000 bytes inline (413 otherwise; base64 makes a file 4/3 larger). Receivers get it in next as type data {from, from_identity, kind, id, name?, mime?, payload | url + file_id, size?}; url is a path, served at https://voicehook.ai<url> with the header Authorization: Bearer <session>. Returns id, to (labels), size.

Put a card on the person's call page (never spoken): text, code, a link or an image. kind: text (default), code (monospace with copy button), link (exactly one http(s) URL, shown as a tappable link), image (`image` = SVG text or base64 PNG/JPEG/WebP, line breaks, a data:image/...;base64, prefix and missing padding are accepted; or `file_id` of an image uploaded with the REST endpoint POST /api/bridge/upload, which keeps large base64 out of the tool call). A new card appears as a small preview top left; panel cards opens the cards view, board, log or decisions open those panels, none closes them. large: true opens the cards view big in the middle with this card at full size (diagrams, swimlanes; implies panel cards). SVG may draw anything (no scripts, no foreignObject, no external references). Files (reports, tables): kind pdf (preview with page turning and download), csv (table preview of the first rows and download) or md (Markdown, rendered safely, and download) with `data` = the file as base64 and `name` = file name (e.g. report.pdf), or `file_id` from POST /api/bridge/upload. Limits: text 4000 chars, title 80, SVG 300 KB, raster 1024 KB, pdf 10 MB, csv and md 2 MB (UTF-8).

Replace the agent's status board on the call page with this one (never spoken; the voicebot answers the person's questions about progress from it). Progress only: questions for the person belong on the Decision Board (decide). doing: current step and ETA (max 400 chars). open / done: max 10 items each, 200 chars per item. faq: up to 6 question/answer pairs the voicebot can answer directly. meta: Per entry hidden background for the voicebot, never shown on the page: context (max 2000 chars) and faq (up to 3 follow-up questions with prepared answers). Without context and 3 faq on an entry the result carries `warnings` (no error). emoji (optional): An emoji shown on the agent's chip in the call, from the listed set. Empty string removes it, left out keeps it. Whole board max 2000 chars. Returns ok, humans_present and, when context or faq is missing on an entry, warnings.

Change the person's call page right away, like their own clicks: cmd window (win log=activity, dec=decisions, board=status board, wrap=transcript, cards; state open, close, min, medium, large, max), cmd layout (preset halves, quarters, thirds, bigmid, bar), cmd move (win + slot l, m, r, b, tl, tr, bl, br, main, side; optional preset), cmd focus (project voicehook, salesengine, kunden, sonstiges or all: only that project's sections stay open in activity, status and decisions). Never spoken. Only when the person asks for it or it clearly helps (e.g. open decisions after asking one).
