Common questions

Is Bird safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.160.0) reached the registry today.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Vexa, emailmd, MCP WhatsApp Cloud

Bird AI Marketplace

Skills for driving the Bird platform from your coding agent. Your agent operates Bird through the bird CLI; the bird plugin in this marketplace installs the skills that teach it Bird's workflows, and on clients that read the plugin's MCP declaration it wires up Bird's hosted MCP server too.

Quick start

Every client starts the same way: install the CLI and sign in.

curl -fsSL https://cli.bird.com/install.sh | sh   # install the bird CLI

bird auth login # sign in (browser, no API key)

On macOS or Linux you can also install with Homebrew: brew install messagebird/tap/bird.

Then jump to your client below. The fastest path is to paste the setup prompt and let your agent do the rest; a manual path is under each one.

No Bird account yet?

bird auth login signs in to an account you already have. An agent with no account can create one from the terminal — no browser, no password. Three commands take you from nothing to a stored credential:

# 1. Sign up. Emails a six-digit code to the address; no password is set.

bird auth signup you@example.com

2. Verify. Read the code from that email, then exchange it for a single-use onboarding ticket.

bird auth verify-email you@example.com --code 123456

→ { "onboarding_ticket": "obt_…", "user_id": "usr_…" }

3. Create your first org + workspace. Consumes the ticket, then mints and stores the credential.

--region picks where the account and its data live (us1 or eu1); the CLI routes there for you.

bird auth create-org "Acme" --workspace-name "Production" --region us1 --onboarding-ticket obt_…

Confirm it worked — reports the account, org, and workspace you're now acting as.

bird auth status

The code arrives by email, so it comes from outside the CLI — read it from the inbox and pass it to step 2. Signup and verification are region-agnostic; you pick the region once, at create-org, so there is no host or environment variable to set. Every step is self-describing: append --help for the flags, --example for a ready-to-edit request body, or --response-schema for what it returns — none of them need a credential, so an agent can plan the whole chain before running it. Full walkthrough: Self-serve signup.

Any Agent Plugins client

The plugin ships a root plugin.json and mcp.json following Agent Plugins, the portable plugin format. A client that implements the specification loads it from this repository as it is: the skills and the hosted MCP server, in one install. Point the client at github.com/messagebird/bird-ai and install bird from plugins/bird.

For a client with its own plugin format, or none, find it below.

Claude Code

Paste this prompt into Claude Code and it installs the CLI, signs you in, installs the skills, and sends a test email:

Bird is a communications platform you can operate end to end: email, SMS, WhatsApp, and voice through one API and one login. Set Bird up for me, end to end.

Install the Bird CLI: run curl -fsSL https://cli.bird.com/install.sh | sh.
Sign me in: run bird auth login and open the browser link for me.
Install Bird's skills so you know the workflows: run claude plugin marketplace add messagebird/bird-ai, then claude plugin install bird@bird-ai.
Confirm who I am: run bird whoami, which prints the email of the account you're acting as.
Send me a test email so I see it land in my own inbox: use my address from bird whoami as the recipient, send from onboarding@messagebird.dev, then confirm delivery with bird email get. Subject: "Your Bird account is ready". Body: "You're set up and ready to send. This email is the proof. Cheers, The Bird team".

Then let's discuss next steps, given what Bird can do.

Or install the plugin manually:

claude plugin marketplace add messagebird/bird-ai

claude plugin install bird@bird-ai

MCP server: installing the plugin registers Bird's hosted server at https://mcp.bird.com, so there is nothing to configure. You do have to sign in once, because the server is OAuth-gated: run /mcp, select bird, press Enter, and choose Authenticate. Your browser opens Bird's consent screen; approve it and the tools work. Until then claude mcp list reports bird as ! Needs authentication and every tool call fails. For a headless run (claude -p) there is no /mcp panel, so authenticate first with claude mcp login bird.

Cursor

Paste this prompt into Cursor:

Bird is a communications platform you can operate end to end: email, SMS, WhatsApp, and voice through one API and one login. Set Bird up for me, end to end.

Install the Bird CLI: run curl -fsSL https://cli.bird.com/install.sh | sh.
Sign me in: run bird auth login and open the browser link for me.
Give yourself Bird's skills (Cursor installs plugins through its UI, so set them up by file instead): fetch the skills from https://github.com/messagebird/bird-ai and write them into .cursor/rules/ as .mdc files.
Confirm who I am: run bird whoami, which prints the email of the account you're acting as.
Send me a test email so I see it land in my own inbox: use my address from bird whoami as the recipient, send from onboarding@messagebird.dev, then confirm delivery with bird email get. Subject: "Your Bird account is ready". Body: "You're set up and ready to send. This email is the proof. Cheers, The Bird team".

Then let's discuss next steps, given what Bird can do.

To set the skills up by hand, add the messagebird/bird-ai marketplace under Settings → Plugins, or write the skills from this repo into .cursor/rules/ as .mdc files yourself.

MCP server: add the hosted server once in ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

"mcpServers": { "bird": { "url": "https://mcp.bird.com" } } }

Then sign in: open Customize in the Cursor sidebar, select MCPs, and follow the sign-in prompt for bird. Approve Bird's consent screen in the browser and return to Cursor. The tools fail until you do.

Codex

Paste this prompt into Codex:

Bird is a communications platform you can operate end to end: email, SMS, WhatsApp, and voice through one API and one login. Set Bird up for me, end to end.

Install the Bird CLI: run curl -fsSL https://cli.bird.com/install.sh | sh.
Sign me in: run bird auth login and open the browser link for me.
Install Bird's skills so you know the workflows: run codex plugin marketplace add messagebird/bird-ai, then codex plugin add bird@bird-ai (check codex plugin --help if the exact form differs).
Confirm who I am: run bird whoami, which prints the email of the account you're acting as.
Send me a test email so I see it land in my own inbox: use my address from bird whoami as the recipient, send from onboarding@messagebird.dev, then confirm delivery with bird email get. Subject: "Your Bird account is ready". Body: "You're set up and ready to send. This email is the proof. Cheers, The Bird team".

Then let's discuss next steps, given what Bird can do.

Or install the plugin manually:

codex plugin marketplace add messagebird/bird-ai

codex plugin add bird@bird-ai

MCP server: the plugin registers https://mcp.bird.com automatically.

Then sign in, which opens your browser for Bird's consent screen:

codex mcp login bird

GitHub Copilot

Paste this prompt into Copilot:

Bird is a communications platform you can operate end to end: email, SMS, WhatsApp, and voice through one API and one login. Set Bird up for me, end to end.

Install the Bird CLI: run curl -fsSL https://cli.bird.com/install.sh | sh.
Sign me in: run bird auth login and open the browser link for me.
Install Bird's skills so you know the workflows: run copilot plugin marketplace add messagebird/bird-ai, then copilot plugin install bird@bird-ai.
Confirm who I am: run bird whoami, which prints the email of the account you're acting as.
Send me a test email so I see it land in my own inbox: use my address from bird whoami as the recipient, send from onboarding@messagebird.dev, then confirm delivery with bird email get. Subject: "Your Bird account is ready". Body: "You're set up and ready to send. This email is the proof. Cheers, The Bird team".

Then let's discuss next steps, given what Bird can do.

Or install the plugin manually:

copilot plugin marketplace add messagebird/bird-ai

copilot plugin install bird@bird-ai

MCP server: add the hosted server once in .vscode/mcp.json:

"servers": { "bird": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.bird.com" } } }

VS Code asks you to trust the server the first time it starts, then runs the sign-in itself: approve Bird's consent screen in the browser window it opens. If no window appears, start bird from the MCP: List Servers command. Your grant is listed under the Accounts menu → Manage Trusted MCP Servers, which is also where you revoke it.

Factory Droid

Paste this prompt into Droid:

Bird is a communications platform you can operate end to end: email, SMS, WhatsApp, and voice through one API and one login. Set Bird up for me, end to end.

Install the Bird CLI: run curl -fsSL https://cli.bird.com/install.sh | sh.
Sign me in: run bird auth login and open the browser link for me.
Install Bird's skills so you know the workflows: Droid loads skills from .factory/skills/, so clone https://github.com/messagebird/bird-ai and copy every directory in plugins/bird/skills/ into .factory/skills/.
Confirm who I am: run bird whoami, which prints the email of the account you're acting as.
Send me a test email so I see it land in my own inbox: use my address from bird whoami as the recipient, send from onboarding@messagebird.dev, then confirm delivery with bird email get. Subject: "Your Bird account is ready". Body: "You're set up and ready to send. This email is the proof. Cheers, The Bird team".

Then let's discuss next steps, given what Bird can do.

To set the skills up by hand:

git clone https://github.com/messagebird/bird-ai

cp -r bird-ai/plugins/bird/skills/. .factory/skills/

MCP server: add the hosted server once:
