callme

Minimal plugin that lets Claude Code call you on the phone.

Start a task, walk away. Your phone/watch rings when Claude is done, stuck, or needs a decision.

Minimal plugin - Does one thing: call you on the phone. No crazy setups.
Multi-turn conversations - Talk through decisions naturally.
Works anywhere - Smartphone, smartwatch, or even landline!
Tool-use composable - Claude can e.g. do a web search while on a call with you.

Quick Start

1. Get Required Accounts

You'll need:

Phone provider: Telnyx or Twilio
OpenAI API key: For speech-to-text (and text-to-speech if not using Kokoro)
ngrok account: Free at ngrok.com (for webhook tunneling)

2. Set Up Phone Provider

Choose one of the following:

Option A: Telnyx (Recommended - 50% cheaper)

Create account at portal.telnyx.com and verify your identity
Buy a phone number (~$1/month)
Create a Voice API application:
- Set webhook URL to https://your-ngrok-url/twiml and API version to v2
  - You can see your ngrok URL on the ngrok dashboard
- Note your Application ID and API Key
Verify the phone number you want to receive calls at
(Optional but recommended) Get your Public Key from Account Settings > Keys & Credentials for webhook signature verification

Environment variables for Telnyx:

CALLME_PHONE_PROVIDER=telnyx
CALLME_PHONE_ACCOUNT_SID=<Application ID>
CALLME_PHONE_AUTH_TOKEN=<API Key>
CALLME_TELNYX_PUBLIC_KEY=<Public Key>  # Optional: enables webhook security

Option B: Twilio (Not recommended - need to buy $20 of credits just to start and more expensive overall)

Create account at twilio.com/console
Use the free number your account comes with or buy a new phone number (~$1.15/month)
Find your Account SID and Auth Token on the Console Dashboard

Environment variables for Twilio:

CALLME_PHONE_PROVIDER=twilio
CALLME_PHONE_ACCOUNT_SID=<Account SID>
CALLME_PHONE_AUTH_TOKEN=<Auth Token>

3. Set Environment Variables

Add these to ~/.claude/settings.json (recommended) or export them in your shell:

  "env": {
    "CALLME_PHONE_PROVIDER": "telnyx",
    "CALLME_PHONE_ACCOUNT_SID": "your-connection-id-or-account-sid",
