description	Use CALL-E from Cursor for setup checks, authentication recovery, phone call planning, planned call execution, and call status checks.

CALL-E For Cursor

Use this skill when the user wants Cursor to use CALL-E for setup checks, authentication recovery, phone call planning, planned call execution, or call status inspection.

This Cursor plugin is MCP-first. Prefer the Cursor MCP tools exposed by the bundled calle server whenever they are available:

• plan_call
• run_call
• get_call_run

Use the CLI fallback only when Cursor MCP tools are unavailable or the user explicitly asks to verify CALL-E through the CLI.

When to use

Use this skill for:

• verifying CALL-E setup in Cursor
• checking that the calle MCP server is connected
• recovering from missing or expired CALL-E MCP authentication
• planning a phone call
• running a planned call after planning returns complete run credentials
• checking a call run status
• reporting the final call summary, details, and transcript when a call reaches a terminal status

Do not use this skill when the user only wants a call script, roleplay, simulated conversation, or general contact lookup that does not require CALL-E.

Safety and consent

• Real phone calls may contact external people or businesses.
• Always use plan_call before run_call.
• Only call run_call when the user clearly intends to place the call.
• Preserve plan_id and confirm_token exactly.
• If the user asked only to verify setup or only to plan, do not run the call.
• Do not guess phone numbers, country codes, language, region, plan_id, confirm_token, or run_id.
• Do not expose OAuth tokens, bearer tokens, authorization codes, callback URLs, refresh tokens, or access tokens.
• Do not configure CALL-E run_call for auto-run.

MCP readiness

Use this flow whenever this Cursor plugin is actively invoked for a CALL-E request. Run it before call planning, when setup is uncertain, when auth fails, or when the user asks to verify CALL-E setup:

1. Confirm the calle MCP server is connected.
2. Confirm that plan_call, run_call, and get_call_run are available.
3. If Cursor asks to authorize the calle MCP server, use Cursor's MCP authorization flow and continue after authorization completes.
4. Never ask the user for OAuth tokens, bearer tokens, authorization codes, callback URLs, refresh tokens, or access tokens.
5. If the MCP server cannot be connected or authorized, use the CLI fallback.

Setup verification must not place a real phone call. Use only tool discovery, authorization recovery, and plan_call when the user explicitly asks to plan.

MCP call flow

1. Use plan_call first. If the user has not provided enough explicit fields for plan_call, call it with user_input set to the latest user message verbatim so CALL-E can ask for missing details.
2. Read the returned plan_id and confirm_token.
3. If the user's request is to place a call, immediately use run_call with the exact plan_id and confirm_token returned by planning.
4. Do not ask for a second confirmation between plan_call and run_call.
5. Read the returned run_id. Preserve it exactly.
6. After run_call, wait 60 seconds before the first get_call_run request unless the call already returned a terminal status.
7. Keep using get_call_run with that exact run_id until the call reaches a terminal status or the user asks you to stop. Poll every 5 to 10 seconds after the first status check.
8. Use get_call_run only with a known run_id.

Terminal statuses include COMPLETED, FAILED, NO_ANSWER, DECLINED, CANCELED, CANCELLED, VOICEMAIL, BUSY, and EXPIRED.

For non-terminal statuses, reply with progress in this shape:

Phone call is in progress! Progress:
- <HH:MM:SS message>

Use one bullet per activity item, preserving the order returned by CALL-E. For each item, prefer the event ts formatted as HH:MM:SS plus message. If ts is missing, use the message by itself. If there is no activity, use - Status: <status> when a status exists; otherwise use - Waiting for the next status update. Do not include the final summary, details, or transcript until a terminal status is returned.

When the call reaches a terminal status, reply with the final call result, including these sections in this order:

[Status]
<status>

[Call Summary]
<post_summary or summary or message>

[Details]
Callee Number: <primary callee or Not available>
Duration: <duration or Not available>
Time: <start/end time or Not available>
Call id: <call_id or Not available>

[Transcript]
<transcript or Not available.>

If the user asked for extra final content, such as key takeaways or next steps, add it after [Transcript] under a short heading. Base all final sections only on the JSON returned by run_call or get_call_run; do not invent a transcript.

CLI fallback

All CLI commands run from this Cursor plugin must include the CALL-E integration attribution environment:

env CALLE_SOURCE=cursor CALLE_INTEGRATION=cursor_plugin CALLE_INTEGRATION_VERSION=0.1.1

Use the first command form that works.

Prefer the repository-local CLI when the current workspace contains it:

env CALLE_SOURCE=cursor CALLE_INTEGRATION=cursor_plugin CALLE_INTEGRATION_VERSION=0.1.1 node packages/cli/bin/calle.js

If the repository-local CLI is unavailable, use the global command:

env CALLE_SOURCE=cursor CALLE_INTEGRATION=cursor_plugin CALLE_INTEGRATION_VERSION=0.1.1 calle

If neither command works, use the npm package through npx:

env CALLE_SOURCE=cursor CALLE_INTEGRATION=cursor_plugin CALLE_INTEGRATION_VERSION=0.1.1 npx -y @call-e/cli

Only tell the user to install the CLI globally if npx is unavailable, network access is blocked, or the user explicitly wants a persistent global command.

Use CLI fallback readiness commands in this order:

1. Check CLI availability with --help.
2. Run auth status.
3. If auth status reports usable: false, run blocking auth login and keep that command running until it exits.
4. After login completes, run mcp tools.
5. Confirm that plan_call, run_call, and get_call_run are available.

If a CLI command returns auth_required, switch to the CLI fallback readiness flow, complete login, and then retry the original operation after login completes.
