Call connections.request_number_purchase
Get this workspace its own texting number — 'buy us a texting number', 'get a phone number for SMS'. Buy a texting number for this workspace. It SPENDS MONEY — a number carries a recurring monthly charge — so calling it raises the approval card naming the number and its monthly charge, which is the operator's confirmation, and it buys only on their approve. Pass the exact number the operator chose. Buying a number does NOT make texting work: the number lands in compliance_pending and the operator still has to register it with the phone companies, which is a step only they can do. Say that when you offer it. Not for why texts cannot go out — that is connections.messaging_registration_status. Over the API it answers in two calls: without confirmation_id it proposes — says what would happen, returns a confirmation_id and changes, spends and sends nothing; the same arguments again with that confirmation_id, on a member's own API key, do it.
Every result names the workspace it ran in. Say which workspace the answer is about. When the account has more than one workspace and none is selected, this tool refuses with workspace_ambiguous and lists the choices — offer them, never pick one.
