An inbound call is a call placed to one of your imported Twilio numbers. The flow is automatic — once a number is imported, the agent answers.Documentation Index

What happens on an inbound call
Twilio routes the call to Nixflex
Because the number’s voice webhook points at our engine, Twilio opens a WebSocket and starts streaming audio.
Conversation runs
STT transcribes the caller, Claude reasons, TTS speaks the reply. Interruptions, silence, and language changes are handled automatically.
Call ends
Either the caller hangs up, Claude says
[END_CALL], the silence timeout fires, or max_call_duration_seconds is hit.Behaviour you get out of the box
You don’t have to configure any of this — the engine handles it:- Barge-in / interruption — caller can speak over the agent and the agent will stop
- Silence handling — if the caller goes quiet, the agent gently prompts after a few seconds
- Language auto-detection — backchannels and filler words match the caller’s language
- Voicemail detection — if the call somehow lands on a voicemail, the engine hangs up cleanly (rare on inbound, but possible)
- Call recording — dual-channel recording, stored, deleted from Twilio afterwards
- Post-call analysis — every call gets a summary and sentiment automatically
History-aware behaviour
When an inbound call arrives, Nixflex looks up the caller’s number in your past calls. If there are previous conversations, summaries are injected into the agent’s prompt as background context. The agent can naturally reference past interactions without you wiring up any database lookups:Caller: “Hi, it’s Sarah.” Agent: “Hi Sarah, welcome back. Last time you booked a check-up — were you calling to follow up on that, or is this something new?”This works because the engine fetched Sarah’s call history before Claude generated the first response.
