Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

branded-calling scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Branded Calling Skill

Decision-making guide for the Twilio call trust stack: Branded Calling (Basic and Enhanced), SHAKEN/STIR attestation, Voice Integrity spam remediation, and CNAM caller ID. Load this skill when a developer wants to improve outbound call answer rates, display a business name or logo on the recipient's phone, remediate spam/scam labels, or configure caller identity.

Evidence date: 2026-03-28 | Account: ACxx...xx | Trust Hub policies verified via live API


Scope

What the Call Trust Stack CAN Do

  • Display a business name on the recipient's phone (Basic Branded Calling — T-Mobile, some carriers)
  • Display a business name + logo + call reason on the recipient's phone (Enhanced Branded Calling — T-Mobile, limited Apple/iOS)
  • Achieve SHAKEN/STIR A-level attestation on outbound calls (proves your business owns the calling number)
  • Remediate spam/scam labels on your numbers across T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon via Voice Integrity
  • Register CNAM (Caller Name) for display on landlines and some carriers
  • Track branded call delivery via Voice Insights (branded call status, SHAKEN/STIR verification)
  • Manage the full setup programmatically via Trust Hub API (TrustProducts, CustomerProfiles, EndUsers, Documents)

What the Call Trust Stack CANNOT Do

  • Cannot guarantee display on every device — Branded Calling display depends on the recipient's carrier, device, and OS. Not all combinations show the brand. There is no way to force display.
  • Cannot brand inbound calls — Branded Calling applies to outbound calls only. Inbound caller ID is controlled by the originating carrier.
  • Cannot use Branded Calling without Voice Integrity (Enhanced) — Enhanced Branded Calling requires an approved Voice Integrity trust product as a prerequisite.
  • Cannot skip the LOA (Letter of Authorization) — Both Basic and Enhanced require a signed LOA proving your business is authorized to use the phone numbers.
  • Cannot change the display name per call — The display name is registered at the Trust Product level. All calls from assigned numbers show the same name.
  • Cannot use toll-free numbers — Branded Calling is for local and mobile numbers only. Toll-free has its own trust framework.
  • Cannot self-approve — All Branded Calling trust products require Twilio review and carrier-side registration. Approval timelines are measured in business days to weeks.
  • Cannot use Branded Calling outside the US — Currently US-only for both Basic and Enhanced tiers.
  • Cannot add a logo without Enhanced tier — Basic shows business name only. Logo requires Enhanced Branded Calling.
  • Cannot brand calls made via SIP Trunking — Branded Calling requires calls to originate from the Twilio Programmable Voice platform (API or TwiML). SIP trunk calls bypass the branding layer.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
