What it does

Give chosen NanoClaw agents a real phone number as a container tool, the `dial` CLI baked into the agent image plus OneCLI credential injection for api.getdial.ai, attached only to the agents you pick, so they can send SMS, place AI voice calls, and receive verification codes from inside the sandbox. Independent of the Dial channel; idempotent; re-run to change which agents may use it. Use when the user wants agents to text, call, or run `dial …` from a chat, without wiring Dial as a messaging channel.

Add Dial Tool

Installs Dial as a container tool: the dial CLI on the agent's PATH, the dial-cli skill so the agent knows how to drive it, and an OneCLI credential attached only to the agents you choose, so their in-container calls are injected keyless. Independent of the Dial channel (/add-dial), install this alone. Idempotent: re-run it to change which agents may use Dial.

This tool spends money and reaches real people. An agent with Dial access can text and call any number and buy more numbers, billed to the Dial account. The CLI and the skill file land in every agent's container, but the key is injected per agent by OneCLI, so the operator chooses which agents get it. The key is attached to those agents only; every other agent, and every agent group created later, gets no Dial key, and the gateway answers its Dial requests with the error code access_restricted.

Run this from the NanoClaw repo on the host (not from a chat with an agent, the container can't install itself). The mechanical steps carry nc: directive fences: an agent reads the prose and applies them, and a parser can apply them deterministically from the same document. Every directive is idempotent, so the whole skill is safe to re-run; anything a parser can't apply falls back to the prose beside it.

Pre-flight

OneCLI is required for credential injection, without it there is no way to hand the key to a container without putting it in an env var. This must succeed before anything else runs:

command -v onecli >/dev/null

If it fails, tell the user to run /init-onecli first, then retry. Stop here.
