Deployment in a box: a voice agent for a fictional utility, end to end

A full customer deployment, compressed: discovery, a voice agent with three tools over MCP on simulated APIs, evals, a KPI dashboard and an honest post-mortem.

Why build it

Production work is under NDA. This is the version I can show: the same decisions, made in the open, on a customer that does not exist.

Scope

  • Discovery. Contact-reason analysis and a business case built with the calculator.
  • Agent. A voice agent for billing, outage reporting and meter readings, with three tools exposed over MCP on simulated utility APIs (authentication, validation, error handling included).
  • Evaluation. Transcripts turned into regression tests that run on every change.
  • Measurement. A KPI tree from conversation traces to containment, handle time, first-contact resolution and cost per resolution.
  • Post-mortem. What broke, written up as it happened.

This entry will be updated as the build progresses.
