At a glance

Prepare and deliver configured daily network briefings by Twilio phone call.

  • Works in 2 steps: Scheduled Time (e.g., 8 AM daily) → Manual Request
  • An authorized briefing schedule
  • SKILL.md covers Purpose, Trigger Conditions, Configuration and Workflow, plus 8 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Twilio Daily Briefing is an agent skill from automateyournetwork/netclaw. Prepare and deliver configured daily network briefings by Twilio phone call. Use for an authorized briefing schedule or an explicit briefing request.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation. It works with Twilio and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: An AI agent that claws through your network. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • An authorized briefing schedule
  • An explicit briefing request

Example prompts

  • “/twilio-daily-briefing”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Scheduled Time (e.g., 8 AM daily)
  2. Manual Request

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa90e7d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json and python).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Twilio Daily Briefing loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 322 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Tool Usage

{
  "action": "update_config",
  "path": "daily_briefing.enabled",
  "value": true
}
Manual Briefing Request
json
{
  "tool": "twilio_voice_call",
  "arguments": {
    "to": "+18734550127",
    "message": "[Generated daily briefing content]",
    "priority": "normal"
  }
}

Integration Points

  • Heartbeat System: Triggers at scheduled time
  • PagerDuty MCP: Overnight incident data
  • Memory MCP: Event history, call logging
  • pyATS MCP: Device health summary
  • @twilio-alpha/mcp: Call initiation

Guardrails

  • Rate Limits: Counts toward daily limit
  • Quiet Hours: Not applicable (scheduled during work hours)
  • Whitelist: Required
  • Content: Sanitized as always

Example Scenarios

Scenario 1: Busy Night
Time: 8:00 AM Monday
Events Overnight:
  - 2 PagerDuty incidents (1 resolved, 1 active)
  - 3 device alerts (all auto-resolved)

Briefing:
"Good morning John. Overnight summary: 2 incidents occurred.
The P2 on core-router-1 is resolved. There's still an active P3
on switch-floor-2 for high CPU. 3 device alerts auto-resolved.
All 47 devices are currently operational. Have a great day."
Scenario 2: Quiet Night
Time: 8:00 AM Tuesday
Events Overnight: None

Briefing (include_quiet_nights: true):
"Good morning John. All quiet overnight. No incidents, no alerts.
All 47 devices are operational. Have a great day."

Briefing (include_quiet_nights: false):
[No call made - logged as skipped]
Scenario 3: Weekend Skip
Time: 8:00 AM Saturday
Config: days: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]  # Monday-Friday only

Action: No call made (weekend)

Heartbeat Integration

The daily briefing integrates with NetClaw's heartbeat system:

python
# In heartbeat_cycle:
if is_daily_briefing_time():
    await trigger_daily_briefing()

Success Criteria

  • Briefing calls at configured time
  • Correct day-of-week filtering
  • Accurate overnight event summary
  • "All clear" message for quiet nights
  • Optional skip when no events
  • Enable/disable via config

Failure Behavior

  • On a tool error (timeout, unreachable host, malformed response), report the failure and its error message directly to the user rather than fabricating or guessing at results.
  • For a confirmed read-only call, check connectivity and retry once if appropriate. For any call that changes state or sends a message, a timeout does not prove the action failed: inspect current state or delivery status before retrying, preserve the required approval/change gates, and do not repeat an action whose outcome is unknown.
