2. Register the dedicated pager account. Signal requires a captcha for registration: run =signal-cli -a +<number> register=, follow the printed =signalcaptchas.org= link, solve it, and pass the resulting token to =signal-cli -a +<number> register --captcha <token>= within a minute or two before it expires. Signal then texts a code to the number; verify with =signal-cli -a +<number> verify <code>=.

-The =--user-id= is a *dedicated* number (a Google Voice number registered to =signal-cli=), not Craig's primary. Signal mobile won't push-notify a message an account sends to itself, so paging from the primary to itself is silent; a distinct sender account reaching Craig's account notifies normally. Craig's account hides its phone number under phone-number privacy, so the destination is its stable account UUID rather than a number. The same account and recipient back the =page-signal= CLI wrapper (=PAGE_SIGNAL_ACCOUNT= / =PAGE_SIGNAL_TO=). The MCP server is the two-way path (=receive_message= to listen for replies); =page-signal= is the fast send-only path.
