Pipecat Outbound Calling Voice Agent — Setup Guide

You are helping a non-engineer (but computer-savvy) user get a working outbound phone-calling voice agent running with Pipecat and Daily PSTN. Be friendly, patient, and explain every step clearly. Don't assume they know git workflows, Python packaging, or API key management. When something fails, help them debug it step by step.

Phase 0 — Prerequisites Check

Before doing anything else, verify the user has these installed. If anything is missing, walk them through installing it:

#!/usr/bin/env -S uv run
"""Fetch IP addresses from Daily.co IP info API by region.

This script fetches host information from the Daily.co IP info API and filters
for hosts in the 'iad' region. It tracks changes by storing the lastUpdated
timestamp and prints "NEW LIST" when updates are detected.

Usage:
    ./regions.py
