# Task
Using the telnyx CLI (Telnyx), perform a telephony workflow.

If the CLI supports messaging, send a ***** SMS using sandbox or ***** credentials and print the response.

If the CLI focuses on calling or phone resources instead, list available phone resources or create a ***** telephony resource and print the result.

Use the CLI directly for the operation.

You MUST use the `telnyx` CLI to accomplish this task.
Do NOT write Python scripts that import the SDK — use CLI commands via the terminal.

If you need help with CLI commands, check the documentation: https://developers.telnyx.com/development/cli
You can also use `telnyx --help` and `telnyx <command> --help` to discover available commands.

## Setup
You need to install and authenticate the `telnyx` CLI yourself.

### Installation
Run: `go install github.com/team-telnyx/telnyx-cli/cmd/telnyx@la*****`

### Authentication
API credentials are available as environment variables in this environment.
Check what environment variables are set (e.g. `env | grep -i key` or `env | grep -i token`) to find credentials.

## Execution
1. Install the `telnyx` CLI using the command above
2. Verify the installation: `telnyx --version`
3. Authenticate using the credentials above
4. Perform the task described above

Work in the /home/daytona/app directory. Run commands and print output to stdout.
If there are errors, debug and fix them until the task runs successfully.

## Summary
When you are done, write a JSON summary file to /home/daytona/app/results.json with this structure:
{
  "operations": [
    {"step": 1, "description": "What you did", "command": "the CLI command", "success": true/false, "output_summary": "brief result"},
    ...
  ],
