Vapi hosts the telephony and the live audio bridge to the model, so the whole demo is one POST to `https://api.vapi.ai/call` — one file, about seventy lines, no imports.\n\n## Setup\n\n1. **Remix this val** to get your own copy.\n2. **Get a Vapi API key** — sign up at [dashboard.vapi.ai](https://dashboard.vapi.ai) and copy your private key, then paste it as an env var in your val:\n\n 👉 [Add `VAPI_API_KEY` here](https://www.val.town/x/templates/vapi-phone-call/environment-variables?key=VAPI_API_KEY)\n\n3. **Create a phone number** in the Vapi dashboard (free Vapi numbers work for testing) and copy its ID:\n\n 👉 [Add `VAPI_PHONE_NUMBER_ID` here](https://www.val.town/x/templates/vapi-phone-call/environment-variables?key=VAPI_PHONE_NUMBER_ID)\n\n## Test it\n\nOpen the HTTP endpoint of [`main.ts`](https://www.val.town/x/templates/vapi-phone-call/code/main.ts), type your own number in E.164 format (`+15551234567`), and hit **Call me**. Your phone rings and the AI speaks first. Without the env vars set, the page shows a setup reminder instead of erroring.\n\n## Files\n\n- [`main.ts`](https://www.val.town/x/templates/vapi-phone-call/code/main.ts) — the form, and the one `fetch` that places the call\n\n## Notes\n\n- `FIRST_MESSAGE`, `SYSTEM_PROMPT`, `MODEL`, and `VOICE` at the top of `main.ts` control what the AI opens with, how it behaves, and how it sounds.\n- Call screening (like Google Voice's) answers before you do, so the AI spends its greeting on the screening robot and you join to silence — turn screening off when testing.\n- Free Vapi numbers are US-only and meant for testing.\n- From here you can add tool calls, transcripts, and post-call analysis — see [docs.vapi.ai](https://docs.vapi.ai).\n- Only call numbers you have consent to call — automated calls without consent violate TCPA/FCC rules.\n",[143],"pulls","branches","forks","envVars",{"_156":158,"_159":43},"connections",{"_156":43,"_157":43},"count","unfilledCount",2,"emptyCount",{"_18":142,"_20":143,"_129":144,"_130":-5,"_131":69,"_132":145,"_133":39,"_22":166,"_66":43,"_135":102,"_137":147,"_139":26,"_140":-5,"_163":167,"_91":168},{"_18":127,"_20":128,"_129":37,"_130":-5,"_131":69,"_132":67,"_133":39,"_22":162,"_66":74,"_135":136,"_137":138,"_139":26,"_140":-5,"_163":164,"_91":165},["D",1781209387738],"children",[],[128],["D",1781209168141],[],[143],["D",1781209168141],{"_16":17,"_89":85},{"_16":17,"_82":83,"_84":85,"_34":35,"_86":87,"_88":26},{"_66":67,"_20":68,"_18":69,"_70":19,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":28,"_76":77,"_78":79,"_80":21,"_81":17},"ctx",{"_59":-5,"_112":206,"_207":208,"_209":210,"_211":26,"_212":26,"_213":26,"_214":39,"_215":-5,"_216":-7,"_217":-7,"_218":43,"_219":26,"_220":26,"_221":-5,"_222":26,"_223":26,"_224":26,"_225":-5},"ENV",{"_177":178,"_179":180,"_181":68,"_182":183,"_184":185,"_186":187,"_188":189,"_190":191,"_192":193,"_194":195,"_196":197,"_198":199,"_200":201,"_202":203,"_204":205},"REACT_APP_SENTRY_DSN","https://586020d86f05489db63a554690acf1e9@o1398359.ingest.sentry.io/6724499","RENDER_GIT_COMMIT","5015b8df46402d8bba4f485ecc37aec202b0e06b","RENDER_GIT_BRANCH","POSTHOG_API_TOKEN","phc_nmoyuAkStEZuUp69rYlg1DZgrIt19Gx0Y4Hwf8tGgJP","POSTHOG_API_HOST","https://wart.val.town","WEB_API_TEMPLATE","https://{val}.web.val.run","APP_URL","https://www.val.town","MODULE_URL","https://esm.town","VANITY_WEB_API_TEMPLATE","https://{label}.val.run/","DENOLS_URL","https://lsp.val.town","NODE_ENV","production","CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY","0x4AAAAAACtaIZJH7s9rBMZ6","GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID","875989696899-jtsqkhlbdv5jrlsk8631p7ipjg3c6o62.apps.googleusercontent.com","STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY","pk_live_51N2zvWEpZTTLipIkVEwXrUG9AT0yeOOEYxszarZT1jpsZV58Ly6wlg3SltZpHN26CUalOBmUSY7adQRQiSkCZz2500qSXNkf8Y","API_URL","https://api.val.town",[],"preferencesKeybindings","default","preferencesTheme","light","preferencesFixers","preferencesCopilot","preferencesSelectionAi","preferencesCloseBrackets","preferencesChatPanelState","preferencesDprint","preferencesDenofmt","notificationCount","flagDenols","isBusinessOrgMember","businessOrgHandle","isBusinessOrgAdmin","isHigherTownieTier","navCollapsed","currentOrgId"]
