+description: Send SMS messages via the Plivo Messages API using Auth ID/Auth Token authentication.
+---
+
+# Plivo SMS Skill
+
+Send SMS messages via Plivo.
+
+## Setup
+
+1. **Create a Plivo account** and open the console at https://cx.plivo.com
+2. **Get your credentials**:
+   - Copy your **Auth ID** and **Auth Token** from the dashboard
+   - Rent a Plivo phone number (or use an approved sender ID) to send from
+
+3. **Configure credentials**:
+   ```bash
+   export PLIVO_AUTH_ID="your-auth-id"
+   export PLIVO_AUTH_TOKEN="your-auth-token"
+   ```
+
+   Or create a `.env` file in the skill directory:
+   ```
+   PLIVO_AUTH_ID=your-auth-id
+   PLIVO_AUTH_TOKEN=your-auth-token
+   ```
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/send_sms.py \
+  --from "+14150000002" \
+  --to "+14150000001" \
+  --text "Message body text"
+```
+
+Send to multiple recipients by joining numbers with `<`:
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/send_sms.py \
+  --from "+14150000002" \
+  --to "+14150000001<+14160000003" \
+  --text "Message body text"
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.6+
+- No additional packages needed (uses stdlib urllib)

+
+# Plivo Voice Skill
+
+Place outbound voice calls via Plivo.
+
+## Setup
+
+1. **Create a Plivo account** and open the console at https://cx.plivo.com
+2. **Get your credentials**:
+   - Copy your **Auth ID** and **Auth Token** from the dashboard
+   - Rent a Plivo phone number to call from
+
+3. **Configure credentials**:
+   ```bash
+   export PLIVO_AUTH_ID="your-auth-id"
+   export PLIVO_AUTH_TOKEN="your-auth-token"
+   ```
+
+   Or create a `.env` file in the skill directory:
+   ```
+   PLIVO_AUTH_ID=your-auth-id
+   PLIVO_AUTH_TOKEN=your-auth-token
+   ```
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/make_call.py \
+  --from "+14150000002" \
+  --to "+14150000001" \
+  --answer-url "https://example.com/answer.xml"
+```
+
+When the call is answered, Plivo fetches the answer URL and runs the Plivo XML it returns. To speak a message, have that URL return XML such as:
+
+```xml
+<Response>
+  <Speak>Your task has finished.</Speak>
+</Response>
+```
+
