Fill one open shift by calling a standby roster strictly one person at a time and stopping at the first acceptance, for no-show cover, on-call escalation, and shift-swap requests where calling everyone at once would double-book the slot.
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
# Standby Use this skill when the user has **one** slot to fill and **many** people who could take it, and only one of them may end up saying yes — a care home short a nurse at 05:40, a restaurant a commis before dinner service, a depot a loader before the trailer leaves. `standby` is a cascade skill. It does not add a CALL-E backend queue, a provider-side campaign, a daemon, or new MCP tools. It sequences the existing one-off CALL-E call workflow: one call at a time, in an order the user supplies, stopping the moment someone accepts. The distinction that matters: a broadcast campaign asks twenty people a question. A cascade asks one person a question, and asks the next one only because the first said no. Getting four acceptances for one shift is a worse outcome than getting none, because now a human has to un-invite three people. ## When To Use Use this skill for: - filling a single open shift, slot, or appointment from a list of candidates - on-call escalation where the next person is rung only if the previous one does not answer - any "ring round until someone says yes" task - shift-swap requests, cover requests, and last-minute no-show replacement ## When Not To Use …

How to install
mdr add calle-ai/awesome-phone-call-agents/standby@sha256:4ee12829353a329fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260825.a34d6b8, 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.
