Offline experimental CALL-E transcript helper using English irony markers and complaint-context scoring. Returns advisory evidence spans, illustrative confidence buckets or abstention, and suggested de-escalation wording. It does not establish a person's intent, authorize another call or perform consequential actions.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# call-verbal-irony-detector

> **What was said is not always what was meant.**

`call-summarizer` reports caller sentiment - what was said. This skill detects
verbal irony - the mismatch between the two - and turns it into the next
call's strategy. A callee who answers "Oh, great. Just perfect." after a
complaint is not happy, and an agent that acts on the literal words will
make it worse.

## When To Use

- after any CALL-E call where the outcome hinges on a positive-sounding
  answer inside a complaint discussion
- to decide whether a follow-up call should use a de-escalation goal
- to generate that de-escalation goal for `plan_call` directly

## When Not To Use

- to detect sentiment in general; use `call-summarizer` for that
- to detect fraud or social engineering; use `call-fraud-shield`
- during a call; this is strictly post-call analysis plus pre-call goal
  crafting, because CALL-E exposes transcripts, not live audio
- as proof of the callee's emotional state; text-only irony cues are
  ambiguous and the card says so

## Workflow

### Analyze a finished call

```bash
python3 scripts/irony_detector.py analyze --transcript path/to/call-result.json
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add calle-ai/awesome-phone-call-agents/call-verbal-irony-detector@sha256:65cb9d4773c0406b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260920.49cb149, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
