Install

# Install all skills
npx skills add patterai/skills

# Or install one
npx skills add patterai/skills --skill build-voice-agent

# Pin to a specific SDK version (recommended for production)
npx skills add patterai/skills#v0.6.2 --skill build-voice-agent

Skills land in ~/.agents/skills/<skill-name>/ (global) or ./.agents/skills/<skill-name>/ (project-local), with symlinks into each detected agent's skills directory.

Skills

Skill	What it teaches the agent
setup-patter	Install Patter, walk the user through provider/carrier consoles, validate each API key, write .env.
build-voice-agent	Build a voice agent — Realtime / ConvAI / Pipeline modes, with full Python and TypeScript examples.
configure-telephony	Twilio or Telnyx carrier setup — phone numbers, webhooks, tunnels, AMD, voicemail drop.
add-tools-and-handoffs	Custom tools, transfer_call, end_call, output guardrails.
inspect-calls-and-metrics	Live dashboard, CallMetrics, cost tracking, CSV/JSON export.

Every SKILL.md is paired with references/ for deep-dive topics the agent loads on demand. Tested against getpatter 0.6.2 in both Python (≥3.11) and TypeScript (Node ≥20).

Supported agents

Skills work out-of-the-box in ~55 AI agent harnesses that consume the Anthropic Agent Skills standard:

Coding agents — Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, Cline, Crush, Goose, Amp, Antigravity, Windsurf.

Voice & autonomy harnesses — Claude Desktop, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, ChatGPT (MCP Apps).

The skills CLI auto-detects every agent on the user's machine and installs the symlinks in one shot.

Requirements

• Python 3.11+ or Node.js 20+
• getpatter package — pip install "getpatter>=0.6.2" or npm install "getpatter@>=0.6.2"
• Provider credentials in env: at least one of OPENAI_API_KEY, ELEVENLABS_API_KEY, DEEPGRAM_API_KEY, CEREBRAS_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GOOGLE_API_KEY, depending on the engine chosen
• Carrier credentials in env: Twilio (TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID + TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN) or Telnyx (TELNYX_API_KEY + TELNYX_CONNECTION_ID)

The setup-patter skill walks the user through every credential, one console at a time, with validation.

Versioning

Skills version with the SDK. A skill at tag v0.6.2 is guaranteed to match the API of getpatter==0.6.2. Skills on main track the next unreleased version — pin to a tag for reproducibility.
