description	Quo API integration with managed OAuth. Manage calls, messages, contacts, and conversations for your business phone system. Use this skill when users want to send SMS, list calls, manage contacts, or retrieve call recordings/transcripts. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). Requires network access and valid Maton API key.

Quo

Access the Quo API with managed OAuth authentication. Send SMS messages, manage calls and contacts, and retrieve call recordings and transcripts.

Quick Start

# List phone numbers
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/quo/v1/phone-numbers')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('User-Agent', 'Maton/1.0')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://gateway.maton.ai/quo/{native-api-path}

Replace {native-api-path} with the actual Quo API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to api.openphone.com and automatically injects your OAuth token.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header and a User-Agent header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY
User-Agent: Maton/1.0

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Getting Your API Key

1. Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
2. Go to maton.ai/settings
3. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your Quo OAuth connections at https://ctrl.maton.ai.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=quo&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'quo'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response:

{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "quo",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Specifying Connection

If you have multiple Quo connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/quo/v1/phone-numbers')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('User-Agent', 'Maton/1.0')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

{
  "data": [...],

When nextPageToken is null, you've reached the last page.

Code Examples

JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/quo/v1/phone-numbers',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`,
      'User-Agent': 'Maton/1.0'
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();

Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/quo/v1/phone-numbers',
    headers={
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}',
        'User-Agent': 'Maton/1.0'
    }
)
data = response.json()

Send SMS Example

import os
import requests

response = requests.post(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/quo/v1/messages',
    headers={
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}',
        'User-Agent': 'Maton/1.0',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    json={
        'content': 'Hello from Quo!',
        'from': 'PN123abc',
        'to': ['[phone]']
    }
)
data = response.json()

Notes

• Phone number IDs start with PN
• User IDs start with US
• Call/Message IDs start with AC
• Phone numbers must be in E.164 format (e.g., [phone])
• SMS pricing: $0.01 per segment (US/Canada); international rates apply
• Maximum 1600 characters per message
• List calls requires exactly 1 participant (1:1 conversations only)
• IMPORTANT: All API requests require a User-Agent header (e.g., User-Agent: Maton/1.0). Requests without this header will be blocked.
• IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets (participants[]) to disable glob parsing
• IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments

Error Handling

Status	Meaning
400	Bad request (e.g., too many participants, invalid format)
401	Invalid or missing Maton API key
402	Insufficient credits for SMS
403	Not authorized for this phone number
404	Resource not found
429	Rate limited
500	Server error

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

1. Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

1. Ensure your URL path starts with quo. For example:

• Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/quo/v1/phone-numbers
• Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/openphone/v1/phone-numbers
