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.
