Changelog — Asterisk

Notable changes to @wirecat/asterisk-cli. One section per version, newest first.

0.3.0 — 13.11.2026

The command is now pbx, also installed as wcat-pbx. asterisk hid the PBX's own program on a server that runs both. Variables start with PBX_ (PBX_PROFILE, PBX_READ_ONLY), the MCP entry is pbx-<profile>, and its tools are pbx_read, pbx_write and pbx_tools_search. The package, its settings and the saved passwords keep the name asterisk-cli, so nothing is set up again.

files_from sftp reads Master.csv and the recordings on the PBX over SFTP, read only, through cli-core's SFTP client: retries for a dropped connection, timeouts, and each request in the run's trace. The server's key is pinned with sftp_host_key before any password or key is sent; the first session start shows the fingerprint to check. See connect your Asterisk.

phone_region now makes numbers international for every country, not only ru: the rules are cli-core's (0.648.0).

Started from @wirecat/cli-template 0.23.0.
Asterisk call records as meetings in the WireCat store: meetings sync reads Master.csv or a MySQL, MariaDB or PostgreSQL CDR table, read only, one meeting per CDR row, so the legs of a transferred call stay apart.
A call's recording is found by FreePBX's recordingfile or by its uniqueid, and linked by its path; a file still being written waits for the next sync.
meetings transcribe turns recordings into text with a local speech model, once per unchanged file.
session start checks the source and keeps a database password in the keyring; a local Master.csv needs none.
Outside numbers are kept in the international form with phone_region, as the other WireCat tools keep them.
examples/ holds a made-up Master.csv and two short recordings.
