Complete Telnyx toolkit — ready-to-use tools (STT, TTS, RAG, Networking, 10DLC) plus SDK documentation for JavaScript, Python, Go, Java, and Ruby.
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
The complete toolkit for building with Telnyx. Includes ready-to-use tools and SDK documentation for all Telnyx APIs.

Two companion skills handle account lifecycle. They are included with the toolkit and can also be installed independently via ClawHub. SkillPurposePathInstall standaloneTelnyx Bot SignupCreate a new account or sign into an existing one (PoW challenge → email → API key){baseDir}/getting-started/telnyx-bot-signup/clawhub install telnyx-bot-signupTelnyx Freemium UpgradeUpgrade freemium → professional via GitHub or LinkedIn identity verification{baseDir}/getting-started/telnyx-freemium-upgrade/clawhub install telnyx-freemium-upgrade
Hand off to telnyx-bot-signup when ANY of these are true: No API key exists (TELNYX_API_KEY not set, ~/.config/telnyx/config.json missing) API key is invalid/expired (401 errors from Telnyx API) User wants to create a new Telnyx account API key needs to be refreshed after an upgrade (same email, new key) Note: The bot_signup endpoint handles both new and existing accounts transparently — just provide the user's email.
Hand off to telnyx-freemium-upgrade when ANY of these are true: TriggerDetectionError 10039SMS send fails: "destination not verified"Error D60Voice call fails: "destination not verified"Error 10038Feature blocked: "not available on current plan"Number limit hitSecond phone number purchase failsCannot add fundsFreemium account cannot add payment method or top upExplicit requestUser says "upgrade my account" Before handing off, check ~/.telnyx/upgrade.json — if decision is APPROVED, the account is already upgraded (retry the operation instead). If PASS_TO_HUMAN, it's under review (don't retry). See the telnyx-freemium-upgrade SKILL.md for full decision tree. Each skill has its own SKILL.md with complete instructions. Read the skill's SKILL.md before executing its workflow.
Use these endpoints to check balance and add funds programmatically. Important: Top-ups charge the payment method (credit card, PayPal, or ACH) saved in the Telnyx Portal. There is no API to add a payment method — this is done by the user in the portal. Do not prompt the user about this upfront — just attempt the top-up when needed. If it returns 403, that's when you inform the user they need to add a payment method in the portal.
curl -s https://api.telnyx.com/v2/balance -H "Authorization: Bearer $TELNYX_API_KEY" Response: { "data": { "balance": "300.00", "credit_limit": "100.00", "available_credit": "400.00", "currency": "USD" } }
Check whether auto-recharge is enabled. If it is, the account will top up automatically when balance drops below the threshold — the agent can just wait and retry instead of manually topping up. curl -s https://api.telnyx.com/v2/payment/auto_recharge_prefs -H "Authorization: Bearer $TELNYX_API_KEY" Response: { "data": { "enabled": true, "threshold_amount": "100.00", "recharge_amount": "100.00", "preference": "credit_paypal" } } If enabled is true and the agent hits 20100, wait briefly and retry — auto-recharge should handle it. If enabled is false, proceed with the top-up endpoint below. Note: Enabling or configuring auto-recharge is a human decision — use the Telnyx Portal to change these settings.
Charges the stored payment method on file. Requires a payment method already configured in the Telnyx Portal. curl -s -X POST https://api.telnyx.com/v2/payment/stored_payment_transactions -H "Authorization: Bearer $TELNYX_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"amount": "100.00"}' The amount field is in dollars and cents (e.g., "100.00", "25.50"). Response: { "data": { "id": "de06811a-2e43-4561-af5a-7d0a26e20aaa", "record_type": "transaction", "amount_cents": 10000, "processor_status": "submitted_for_settlement", "amount_currency": "USD", "created_at": "2026-02-25T10:00:00Z", "auto_recharge": false } } Error handling: StatusMeaningAction200Transaction submittedWait for settlement, then retry the original operation401UnauthorizedAPI key is invalid — hand off to telnyx-bot-signup403ForbiddenNo stored payment method on file — direct user to Telnyx Portal to add one422Invalid amountAmount must be a string with dollars and cents (e.g., "120.00")
When a Telnyx API call fails with a payment-related error, follow this tree. The agent does not need to know the account tier upfront — the error codes and response codes reveal the right path. Step 1: Identify the error Error CodeMeaningGo to10038 / 10039Feature not permitted / limitedStep 2 (upgrade)20100 / 20012Insufficient Funds / Account inactiveStep 3 (try top-up) Note: The API may return 20100 (Insufficient Funds) even on freemium accounts where 10038/10039 would be more accurate. Don't assume 20100 means the account is professional — always attempt the top-up and let the response tell you. Step 2: Feature restriction → Upgrade first Errors 10038/10039 mean the account is freemium. Freemium accounts cannot add payment methods or top up — they must upgrade first. Hand off to telnyx-freemium-upgrade → upgrade to professional User adds payment method at Telnyx Portal Then proceed to Step 3 if funds are needed Step 3: Insufficient funds → Try to top up Always attempt the top-up regardless of account tier — the response will reveal the right path. GET /v2/balance — check current available credit GET /v2/payment/auto_recharge_prefs — if enabled: true, wait briefly and retry (auto-recharge will handle it). If it does, stop here If auto-recharge is off: POST /v2/payment/stored_payment_transactions — top up via API If top-up returns 200 → retry the original operation If top-up returns 403 → no payment method on file. This is the real signal: Check ~/.telnyx/upgrade.json — if decision is APPROVED, the account is professional but has no payment method → direct user to Telnyx Portal to add one Otherwise, the account is likely freemium → hand off to telnyx-freemium-upgrade (Step 2)
