Two modes: (1) text — we synthesize via OmniVoice TTS in any of 602 languages; (2) audio_base64 + encoding — bring your own audio (mulaw_8000 or pcm_l16_16000 for MVP). STT is automatically muted while we inject, so the agent doesn't hear itself. No addit
poll_voice_bridge
Fetch new transcript events from an open Voice Bridge call since the last cursor. Returns partial + final transcripts + system events. Agent should poll in a loop (~500ms-1s). No additional payment.

request_refund
Open a MANUAL 48-hour refund review ticket for a service that FAILED (error, timeout, wrong output). Sends an email to the operator. DO NOT call this for unused-minute refunds on metered services (ai_call, voice_bridge) — those are returned automatically as an LNURL-withdraw link in the service's ow

list_planned_services
List all planned services with current vote counts. Returns JSON array: [{ slug, name, description, votes }], sorted by votes descending. No payment required — this is a free discovery tool. Use the slug values with vote_on_service to cast votes. This tool is idempotent and safe to call repeatedly.

Monitor your own MCP server
Get alerted the moment yours goes down, a tool schema drifts, or an upstream silently breaks.
What this means. This server responded to the MCP handshake and listed its tools without authentication. The schema fingerprint lets us flag if tool signatures silently change (schema drift) between checks.
