Research real-world businesses by phone. Use when the user needs to compare places by real-time availability, pricing, or features that only a phone call can verify.
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
# PhoneScout — Multi-Agent Phone Research Research the real world by phone. Give PhoneScout a research objective like "find a restaurant for 8 tonight with vegetarian options under R500" and it discovers businesses, calls them through CALL-E, extracts structured results, verifies against your constraints, and returns an evidence-backed ranked recommendation. PhoneScout thinks in terms of **research objectives**, not phone calls. Phone calls are the execution mechanism underneath the research workflow. When the user asks "find me…", "compare…", "research…" — NOT "call…" — this is the skill. ## When to use - "Find me a restaurant in [city] for [N] people with [requirements]" - "Compare dentists near me that can see me this week for under R[amount]" - "Research hotels that have [feature] and check availability" - "Which [business type] in [area] can do [thing] before [deadline]?" ## When NOT to use - Making a booking/reservation → use `call-e-booking` skill - Just looking up a phone number → web search / maps - One simple question about one business → direct CALL-E call via `call-e-booking` - General web research with no phone verification needed → web search …

How to install
mdr add calle-ai/awesome-phone-call-agents/phone-scout@sha256:37bedbae2bc1c16bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.ae5f78f, 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.
