Create contact
Create a new contact in Aircall.
MCP tool aircall_write → create_contact
write Confirm
Creates a contact as Contacts > Add > Create new contact does. Aircall checks for a contact with the same name or phone number; on a match the tool creates nothing and returns the existing contact. Emojis are removed on save, a contact holds up to 20 extra phone numbers and emails, and notes take up to 30,000 characters. Deleting a contact is an admin action in Aircall, so a wrong one is not undone by a second call. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
