[KINAN]: yes so how will we test it? using my phone number as if I am the tradie? i will use my partners mobile phone to call myself ?
[GENESIS]: Good question - let me clarify the testing setup because there's an important distinction:
## Testing Architecture
```
Partner's Phone (Customer) GHL LC Phone Number Your Phone (Tradie)
│ │ │
│ ──── CALLS ────────────────────► │ │
│ │ ── forwards to ──────────► │
│ │ │
│ (you DON'T answer) │
│ │ │
│ ◄─── MCTB SMS ───────────────── │ │
│ "G'day! Sorry we missed..." │ │
```
## What We Need
| Component | Purpose | Current Status |
|-----------|---------|----------------|
| **GHL LC Phone Number** | Receives calls, sends MCTB SMS | Need to check if one exists |
| **Your Phone (0477786847)** | Call forwarding destination + notifications | Already configured |
| **Partner's Phone** | Acts as "customer" calling the business | Ready |
## The Test Flow
1. Partner calls the **GHL LC Phone number** (not your personal number)
2. GHL forwards call to your phone (0477786847)
3. You **don't answer** - let it ring out
4. GHL detects "missed call" status
5. GHL sends MCTB SMS to **partner's phone**
6. Partner receives: "G'day! Sorry we missed your call..."
## Let Me Check Current Phone Setup
[GENESIS]: ## Current Situation
The location shows `phone: 0477786847` but this is just the **business contact phone** in your profile - it's NOT an LC Phone number that can receive calls through GHL.
For MCTB to work, you need an **LC Phone number** purchased in GHL. This is a separate phone number that:
- Lives inside GHL's system
- Can receive calls and track their status
- Can send SMS automatically
- Costs ~$2/month + SMS costs
## Two Options
### Option A: Purchase LC Phone Number (Recommended)
1. Login to GHL → Settings → Phone Numbers → Buy Number
2. Purchase an Australian number (~$2/month)
3. Configure call forwarding to your phone
4. MCTB sends from this number
**Test Flow**:
```
Partner calls LC Phone number → Forwards to you → You don't answer → Partner gets MCTB SMS
```
### Option B: Use Your Existing Phone + Manual Approach
If you don't want to purchase a GHL number yet:
- MCTB won't work automatically
- You'd manually text back missed calls
- Not really "automated" Tier 1
---
## My Question
Do you already have an LC Phone number configured in this GHL location?
You can check by:
1. Login to GHL (app.gohighlevel.com)
2. Go to Settings → Phone Numbers
3. Look for any numbers listed there
If not, you'll need to purchase one. For Australian numbers, you'll also need to submit a **Regulatory Bundle** (ID verification) - this can take a few days to approve.
**Want me to outline the LC Phone setup steps, or do you want to check if one already exists?**
[KINAN]: but tradies want to use their mobile number asthe mctb point ?
[GENESIS]: Excellent point - that's the real-world reality. Tradies have their mobile number on their van, website, Google Business Profile, everywhere. They don't want a new number.
## The Challenge
For MCTB to work, GHL needs to "see" the call. If customers call the tradie's mobile directly, GHL never knows about it.
## Solutions for Tradies
### Option 1: GHL Number as "Business Line" (Easiest)
```
Customer calls GHL number → GHL forwards to tradie's mobile → Tradie misses → MCTB fires
```
- Tradie uses GHL number on website, Google, van
- Personal mobile stays personal
- **Pitch**: "Separate work from personal - stop getting work calls at 10pm"
### Option 2: Port Existing Number to GHL
```
Customer calls tradie's existing number → Now lives in GHL → Forwards to tradie → MCTB works
```
- Number gets ported INTO GHL (4-6 weeks for AU)
- Same number, now with superpowers
- **Downside**: Porting process can be disruptive
### Option 3: Google Business Profile Integration
```
GHL number → Primary on Google
Tradie mobile → Secondary (still visible)
```
- Calls from Google searches go through GHL
- Direct calls to mobile still work (but no MCTB)
- Captures the highest-intent leads (Google searchers)

## The Honest Sales Angle
**What you tell George:**
> "We're giving you a dedicated business line. When you're on the tools and miss a call, it automatically texts them back. Your personal number stays personal - no more work calls during dinner.
>
> Put this new number on your Google listing and website. Serious customers will call it, and you'll never lose them to voicemail again."
---
## For Testing Today
**Simplest path:**
1. You use your phone (0477786847) as the "tradie phone"
2. We get/verify an LC Phone number in GHL
3. Partner calls the LC number
4. It forwards to you → you don't answer → partner gets MCTB
Want me to check if there's already an LC Phone number in the account, or guide you through purchasing one? The number itself is ~$2/month.
[KINAN]: tradies will not change their number. this defeats the purpose to me. the chatbot needs to work on sms and other channels later?
[GENESIS]: You're absolutely right. I was stuck on MCTB when the real value is elsewhere.
## Reframing Tier 1 - What Works WITHOUT Changing Their Number
| Feature | How It Works | Tradie's Number Unchanged |
|---------|--------------|---------------------------|
| **Web Chat** | Customer chats on website → Lead captured → SMS notification to tradie | ✅ Yes |
| **Lead Forms** | Customer submits form → Auto-response → SMS alert to tradie | ✅ Yes |
| **Google Business Messages** | Customer chats via Google listing → Captured in GHL | ✅ Yes |
| **Facebook Messenger** | Customer messages FB page → Captured in GHL | ✅ Yes |
| **Review Automation** | After job, auto-request review via SMS/email | ✅ Yes |
| **2-Way SMS** | Customer texts GHL number for enquiries | ✅ Yes (separate "text us" number) |
| **MCTB** | Missed call auto-text | ❌ Requires calls through GHL |
---
## The REAL Tier 1 Pitch
> "You keep your mobile number exactly as is. We add a chatbot to your website that captures leads 24/7 and texts you instantly. We add a 'Text Us' button for customers who prefer texting. And after every job, we automatically ask for Google reviews.
>
> You don't change anything about how you work - we just make sure no lead slips through the cracks while you're on the tools."
---
## Revised Tier 1 "The Safety Net" - $97/mo
| Feature | Value |
|---------|-------|
| **Website Chatbot** | Captures leads when you're busy |
| **Lead Form Automation** | Instant SMS alerts + auto-response |
| **Google Business Chat** | Never miss a Google enquiry |
| **Review Automation** | More 5-star reviews on autopilot |
| **SMS "Text Us" Line** | Customers can text for quotes |
**MCTB becomes Tier 2 upsell** - for tradies ready for a dedicated business line.
---
Does this reframe make more sense? The chatbot and lead capture work perfectly without touching their phone number.
[KINAN]: how do we test the web chat? on what site ?
[GENESIS]: Good question. Several options:
## Option 1: GHL Test Page (Quickest)
The Extendly snapshot likely includes pre-built funnels. We can:
1. Find an existing funnel/landing page in GHL
2. Publish it to a GHL subdomain (e.g., `tradiechatbots.gohighlevel.com`)
3. Embed chat widget
4. Test immediately
## Option 2: tradiechatbots.com.au
Your location shows `website: tradiechatbots.com.au` - is this live? If so, we could embed there.
## Option 3: Simple Local Test
1. Get the chat widget code from GHL
2. Create a simple HTML file
3. Open in browser
4. Chat widget works locally for testing
## Option 4: George's Site (Later)
`bunkerfnq.com.au` - but only after we've verified everything works
---
## Let Me Check What Funnels Exist
[GENESIS]: API doesn't have funnel access. Let me check for the chat widget settings:
[GENESIS]: Chat widget needs to be grabbed from GHL UI. Here's what we need:
---
## Step 1: Get Chat Widget Code (You Do This in GHL)
1. **Login to GHL**: https://app.gohighlevel.com
2. **Go to**: Sites → Chat Widget (or Conversations → Chat Widget)
3. **Copy the embed code** - looks like:
```html
```
---
## Step 2: I'll Create a Test Page
Once you have the widget code, I'll create a simple test page:
[GENESIS]: Created: `TRADIES/test_chat_widget.html`
---
## Testing Process
### Step 1: Get Widget Code from GHL
```
Login → Sites → Chat Widget → Copy embed code
```
### Step 2: Add Code to Test Page
Open `E:\genesis-system\TRADIES\test_chat_widget.html` in a text editor and paste the widget code at the bottom (where indicated).
### Step 3: Open in Browser
```
Just double-click the HTML file - it opens in your browser
```
### Step 4: Test Flow
```
You (as customer) GHL Your Phone (as tradie)
│ │ │
│ ── Open chat, send message ─► │ │
│ │ ── Creates contact ──────────► │
│ │ ── Triggers workflow ────────► │
│ │ ── Sends SMS notification ───► │
│ ◄── Auto-response ─────────── │ │
```

## What You Need to Tell Me
Once you're in GHL, can you grab:
1. **Chat widget embed code**
2. **Confirm the chat workflow (B-008-WF-1.1) is published or still in draft**
Then we can test the full flow. Does the path make sense?
[KINAN]: why is it thyat you have browser use but ask me to do this. i need to stay as orchestrator
[GENESIS]: You're right - I apologize. Let me check what browser automation I have access to and do this myself.
[GENESIS]: Found it. Genesis has browser automation with GHL-specific methods. Let me use it to:
1. Login to GHL
2. Get the chat widget code
3. Take screenshots
[GENESIS]: Now let me run it:
[GENESIS]: WSL browser environment issue - missing libraries. Let me try to fix this:
[GENESIS]: Browser opened on Windows side. Let me also check if there's an API way to get this:
[GENESIS]: ---
## Honest Assessment
**Browser automation limitation**: WSL needs sudo to install Playwright dependencies, and chat widget isn't available via GHL API.
I've opened the exact page in your Windows browser:
```
https://app.gohighlevel.com/v2/location/SWdaQpAVAtRigYcMfder/settings/chat-widget
```
**What I need from you** (one-time, 30 seconds):
1. **Login** if prompted (kinan@agileadapt.com)
2. **Look for** "Widget Code" or "Embed Code" section
3. **Copy** the `
```
Once you paste it, I'll:
- Update the test page
- Deploy it
- We can test the full flow together
**Alternative**: If you can run `sudo apt-get install libnspr4 libnss3` on WSL, I can automate the browser fully.
[KINAN]: sudo apt-get install libnspr4 libnss3
[GENESIS]: Need your password - run this in your terminal:
```bash
sudo apt-get install -y libnspr4 libnss3 libatk1.0-0 libatk-bridge2.0-0 libcups2 libdrm2 libxkbcommon0 libxcomposite1 libxdamage1 libxfixes3 libxrandr2 libgbm1 libasound2
```
Then tell me when done and I'll run the browser automation.
[KINAN]: authentic88@DESKTOP-7PKTKV1:~$ sudo apt-get install -y libnspr4 libnss3 libatk1.0-0 libatk-bridge2.0-0 libcups2 libdrm2 libxkbcommon0 libxcomposite1 libxdamage1 libxfixes3 libxrandr2 libgbm1 libasound2

Note, selecting 'libatk-bridge2.0-0t64' instead of 'libatk-bridge2.0-0'
Note, selecting 'libcups2t64' instead of 'libcups2'
Package libasound2 is a virtual package provided by:
liboss4-salsa-asound2 4.2-build2020-1ubuntu3.1
libasound2t64 1.2.11-1ubuntu0.1 (= 1.2.11-1ubuntu0.1)
You should explicitly select one to install.
E: Package 'libasound2' has no installation candidate
authentic88@DESKTOP-7PKTKV1:~$
[GENESIS]: Close - just need the updated package name. Run:
```bash
sudo apt-get install -y libasound2t64
```
[KINAN]: ia m truly surprisede we needed this. isnt browser use native to claude now ?
[GENESIS]: You raise an excellent point. Claude does have computer use capability, but:
1. **Claude Code CLI** (what I'm running in) may not have it enabled by default
2. **Computer Use** requires specific API configuration with the `computer_use` beta feature
3. Genesis has **its own browser automation** (Playwright-based) that predates Claude's computer use
Let me check what I actually have access to:
[GENESIS]: You're absolutely right to be surprised. Here's the honest truth:
**Claude Computer Use exists** but:
- It's a **beta feature** requiring specific API configuration
- **Claude Code CLI** (what I'm running as) doesn't have it enabled in my current tool set
- My available tools are: Bash, Read, Write, Grep, Glob, WebFetch, etc. - no `screenshot` or `computer_use`
**Genesis built its own browser automation** (Playwright-based) before Claude's computer use was released.
---
Now let's finish the install and test. Run:
```bash
sudo apt-get install -y libasound2t64
```
Then I'll retry the browser automation.
[KINAN]: 0% [Connecting to archive.ubuntu.com]
0% [Connecting to archive.ubuntu.com]
[GENESIS]: Looks like it's connecting - might be slow. If it hangs for more than 30 seconds, you can Ctrl+C and we'll try an alternative approach.
While waiting - the dependencies we already installed might be enough. Want me to try running the browser automation now and see if it works?
