When your agent uses it

  • Working with Retell AI for voice agents
  • With phrases like retell webhooks events
  • Retellai-webhooks-events

Example prompts

  • “retell webhooks events”
  • “retellai-webhooks-events”
  • “voice agent”
  • “/retellai-webhooks-events”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash(npm:*), Bash(curl:*), Grep

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Configure Webhook URL
  2. Webhook Endpoint
  3. Handle Function Calls During Conversation

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Bash(npm:*)
    • Bash(curl:*)
    • Grep

    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 typescript).

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • docs.retellai.com
    • npmjs.com

    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.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Retellai Webhooks Events loads about 891 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 175 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~67
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~891
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.7k

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.

Retell AI Webhooks Events

Overview

Handle Retell AI webhook events for call lifecycle, transcripts, and function execution.

Prerequisites

  • HTTPS webhook endpoint
  • Agent configured with webhook URL

Instructions

Step 1: Configure Webhook URL
typescript
// Set webhook URL in agent configuration
await retell.agent.update(agentId, {
  webhook_url: 'https://your-app.com/webhooks/retell',
});
Step 2: Webhook Endpoint
typescript
import express from 'express';

const app = express();
app.post('/webhooks/retell', express.json(), async (req, res) => {
  const { event, call } = req.body;

  switch (event) {
    case 'call_started':
      console.log(`Call started: ${call.call_id} from ${call.from_number}`);
      break;

    case 'call_ended':
      console.log(`Call ended: ${call.call_id}`);
      console.log(`  Duration: ${call.duration_ms}ms`);
      console.log(`  Status: ${call.call_status}`);
      if (call.transcript) {
        await saveTranscript(call.call_id, call.transcript);
      }
      break;

    case 'call_analyzed':
      console.log(`Analysis ready: ${call.call_id}`);
      console.log(`  Summary: ${call.call_analysis?.call_summary}`);
      break;

    default:
      console.log(`Unhandled event: ${event}`);
  }

  res.status(200).json({ received: true });
});
Step 3: Handle Function Calls During Conversation
typescript
// When agent triggers a function, Retell calls your URL
app.post('/functions/book-appointment', express.json(), async (req, res) => {
  const { patient_name, phone, date, time } = req.body.args;

  // Process the booking
  const booking = await bookAppointment(patient_name, phone, date, time);

  // Return response for agent to speak
  res.json({
    result: `Appointment booked for ${patient_name} on ${date} at ${time}. Confirmation number: ${booking.id}`,
  });
});

Output

  • Webhook handling for call lifecycle events
  • Transcript storage on call completion
  • Function execution during live calls

Error Handling

IssueCauseSolution
No webhook eventsURL not configuredSet webhook_url on agent
Function timeoutSlow backendRespond within 5 seconds
Missing transcriptShort callTranscript only for calls > 5 seconds

Examples

Process a duplicate webhook delivery safely

Verify the webhook signature, derive a stable event identifier, and record the event before invoking any downstream side effect. When the same identifier is received again, acknowledge it without re-sending a notification, creating a booking, or storing another transcript copy. Send only redacted event metadata to observability systems, and alert on sustained signature failures or delivery latency rather than logging the raw call payload.
