Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned team-telnyx/telnyx-ext-agent-skills at 02d34331a0.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows AI agents to send and receive SMS messages using the Telnyx API. It provides functionality for composing, sending, and retrieving message status updates programmatically. This enables automated communication workflows and integration with other systems that rely on SMS messaging.

When to use it

  • Automated Notifications: Send appointment reminders or order confirmations via SMS.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Implement 2FA using one-time passwords delivered through SMS.
  • Customer Support: Respond to customer inquiries and provide support updates directly over SMS.
  • Marketing Campaigns: Send promotional messages or alerts to a list of contacts.

Key capabilities

  • Sending SMS messages
  • Retrieving message status (e.g., sent, delivered, failed)
  • Integration with the Telnyx API
  • Python-based implementation

Example prompts

  • "Send an SMS to +15551234567 saying 'Your appointment is confirmed for tomorrow at 2pm.'"
  • "What's the status of message ID abcdefg?"
  • "Send a welcome SMS to all new users."

Tips & gotchas
