Send messages via Twilio's Programmable Messaging API across all channels — SMS, MMS, RCS, and WhatsApp. Covers text messages, media, rich content (cards, carousels, buttons), template-based sends, Messaging Services, status callbacks, and WhatsApp's 24-hour service window. Use when the user wants to send a message — whether they say "send SMS", "text message", "branded message", "rich message", "WhatsApp message", "RCS message", "notification", or "alert". For picking the right channel for a use case, first consult twilio-messaging-channel-advisor.
Best practices for ISVs (Independent Software Vendors) building SMS features into multi-tenant SaaS platforms using Twilio. Covers customer onboarding for A2P and toll-free compliance, subaccount architecture, sender management, billing patterns, and common ISV pitfalls. Use this when building SMS capabilities that your customers will use to message their end users.
SMS and MMS deep-dive reference. Covers SMS-specific error codes, message filtering troubleshooting ("Messages Being Filtered or Blocked?" diagnostic checklist), MMS media support (US/CA/AU only), and SMS pumping indicators. For sending SMS, use twilio-send-message instead. Use this skill only when debugging SMS delivery issues or needing SMS-specific details not in the consolidated send skill.
Route tasks to agents using Twilio TaskRouter. Covers Workers, Task Queues, Workflows, Reservations, skills-based routing, and common gotchas (hyphen attributes, HAS operator, reservation cascade). Use this skill for any multi-agent contact center, support queue, or AI agent escalation routing.
Send and verify one-time passcodes (OTPs) via Twilio Verify over SMS, RCS, voice, email, or WhatsApp. Covers creating a Verify Service, sending tokens, checking submitted codes, automatic WhatsApp-to-SMS fallback, and service configuration. TOTP is supported via the Factors API (a separate family from channel-based OTP). Use this skill to add phone or email verification or two-factor authentication to any application.
Make outbound phone calls via Twilio's Programmable Voice REST API. Covers the full voice platform: calls.create(), answering machine detection (AMD), conference-based agent bridging, call recording, status tracking, and SIP Trunking. Use this skill for outbound calls, sales dialers, or when asking what voice APIs are available.
Build voice call logic using TwiML (Twilio Markup Language). Covers the core verbs (Say, Play, Gather, Dial, Record, Conference), generating TwiML with Python and Node.js SDKs, and a complete inbound call IVR example. Use this skill to define call behavior for inbound or outbound calls.
Design, secure, and operate Twilio webhook endpoints. Covers inbound event handling, status callbacks, signature validation, connection overrides for retry and timeout tuning, local development tunneling, and production hardening. Use this skill whenever an agent needs to receive HTTP callbacks from Twilio for any product -- messaging, voice, verify, or event streams.
Create, configure, and manage WhatsApp Business senders via Twilio's Channels Senders API. Covers programmatic sender registration, profile setup, webhook configuration, sender lifecycle statuses, and ISV flows. Use this skill to register and manage production WhatsApp senders at scale.
WhatsApp messaging deep-dive reference. Covers the 24-hour service window rules (free-form vs template mode), sandbox setup for testing, template approval workflow, production sender requirements, and WhatsApp-specific error handling. For sending WhatsApp messages, use twilio-send-message instead. Use this skill when setting up WhatsApp for the first time or debugging WhatsApp-specific delivery behavior.
Browser automation CLI for AI agents. Use when the user needs to interact with websites, verify dev server output, test web apps, navigate pages, fill forms, click buttons, take screenshots, extract data, or automate any browser task. Also triggers when a dev server starts so you can verify it visually.
Automated browser verification for dev servers. Triggers when a dev server starts to run a visual gut-check with agent-browser — verifies the page loads, checks for console errors, validates key UI elements, and reports pass/fail before continuing.
AI Elements component library guidance — pre-built React components for AI interfaces built on shadcn/ui. Use when building chat UIs, message displays, tool call rendering, streaming responses, reasoning panels, or any AI-native interface with the AI SDK.
Vercel AI Gateway expert guidance. Use when configuring model routing, provider failover, cost tracking, or managing multiple AI providers through a unified API.
Vercel AI SDK expert guidance. Use when building AI-powered features — chat interfaces, text generation, structured output, tool calling, agents, MCP integration, streaming, embeddings, reranking, image generation, or working with any LLM provider.
Authentication integration guidance — Clerk (native Vercel Marketplace), Descope, and Auth0 setup for Next.js applications. Covers middleware auth patterns, sign-in/sign-up flows, and Marketplace provisioning. Use when implementing user authentication.
Project bootstrapping orchestrator for repos that depend on Vercel-linked resources (databases, auth, and managed integrations). Use when setting up or repairing a repository so linking, environment provisioning, env pulls, and first-run db/dev commands happen in the correct safe order.
Plain text files in a repository that tell a coding agent how the project works: commands to run, conventions to follow and things to avoid. CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, cursor rules and skills are the common kinds.
CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md?
CLAUDE.md is read by Claude Code. AGENTS.md is an open format that Codex, Cursor and other agents read. Many projects keep one and point the other at it.
What is a skill?
A folder with a SKILL.md that describes one capability, such as filling PDFs or reviewing code. The agent loads it only when the task calls for it.
Can I search my own team's files too?
Your agents already can, over MCP, limited to the files you're allowed to read. Searching them from this page is coming.
