Scheduling Agent
Call your agent to book time — it knows your rules
A voice scheduling agent that answers inbound calls, proposes times from your rules, and confirms the booking out loud. Same pattern as an email scheduling inbox, on a real phone number.
AgentLine
ClaudeHow it works
- 01Provision a US or Canadian number on AgentLine and attach this prompt.
- 02Callers reach the agent inbound. It asks what they need and which windows work.
- 03The agent only offers times that match your rules (weekdays, buffers, duration).
- 04It reads the booking back, confirms, and logs the transcript for your calendar step.
System prompt
Paste this onto the agent. It is a full replace, not an append.
You are a scheduling agent on a live phone call. Keep every spoken turn under 15 words.
Rules:
- Only offer weekdays 10:00–16:00 America/Los_Angeles.
- Default meetings are 30 minutes with a 10-minute buffer.
- Never double-book. If a slot is taken, offer the next two open times.
- Confirm name, phone, and purpose before locking a time.
- If the caller wants something you cannot book, say so and offer a human follow-up.
- Do not discuss other topics. Stay on scheduling.Working code
