# Telephony — Numbers, Calls, and Texts without Core Tool Changes

This optional skill gives Hermes practical phone capabilities while keeping telephony out of the core tool list.

It ships with a helper script, `scripts/telephony.py`, that can:
- save provider credentials into `${HERMES_HOME:-~/.hermes}/.env`
- search for and buy a Twilio phone number
- remember that owned number for later sessions
- send SMS / MMS from the owned number
- poll inbound SMS for that number with no webhook server required
- make direct Twilio calls using TwiML `<Say>` or `<Play>`
- import the owned Twilio number into Vapi
- place outbound AI calls through Bland.ai or Vapi
