Connecting
The agent doesn't show Smitline
- Check that you pasted the address exactly:
https://app.smitline.com/mcp. - Some agents need the connector turned on in each chat. In Claude, click + → Connectors; in ChatGPT, type @ and pick Smitline.
- On a work account (ChatGPT Business, Claude Team, Grok Business), an admin may have to add or allow custom connectors first.
Sign-in fails or loops
Sign in to the Smitline dashboard in the same browser first, then connect again.
During the private beta, your account needs an invite: ask for one on the early access page.
An API key is refused
A 401 means the key is wrong or was revoked. Make a new one under Connect → API keys, and send it as Authorization: Bearer YOUR_SMITLINE_KEY.
When a call is refused
Smitline checks every call before it rings. A refused call comes back with a code and a message written to pass on to you:
insufficient_credit: not enough credit. The answer says how many minutes you have and links to the Wallet.verification_required: verify your phone number first.name_required: add your name in the dashboard. Every call is made in your name.spending_cap_reached: you reached your daily or monthly spending limit. Raise it in Settings, or wait.destination_not_allowed: the number is outside the places you can call. Smitline calls the US and Canada.outside_calling_hours: it's outside 8 am to 9 pm where the other person is. Try later.number_blocked: the number asked not to be called by Smitline. Don't try to get around it.too_many_active_calls: too many of your calls are running at once. Wait for one to end.daily_call_limit: you've started as many calls as your plan allows for now. The message says when you can start another.brief_incomplete: the brief is missing something. Your agent asks you for it.
When a call doesn't go as planned
- Nobody answered. The result's outcome is
not_reachedorvoicemail, and you weren't charged for ringing. Try another time. - It reached a phone menu. Smitline can't press keypad options yet. Look for a direct number.
- It didn't know something. Add it to the brief's context next time, or follow the call live and pass it on. See Follow and steer a live call.
- The meeting never let it in. It waits in the lobby until someone admits it. Ask the host to let Smitline in.
