Installation

Set up this MCP server in your favorite AI agent — copy a ready-made configuration below.

Any MCP-compatible agent

Most agents (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, and more) read a standard mcpServers configuration.

  1. Open your agent's MCP configuration file.
  2. Merge the snippet below into it.
  3. Restart the agent — the "Bird MCP" tools will be available.

Description

Bird (formerly MessageBird) is a communications platform covering email, SMS, WhatsApp, voice and verification. Its official MCP server puts that whole surface behind one connection, so an agent can send a message, check what happened to it, and fix the configuration that made it fail — without a separate API client for each channel.

What the toolset covers
  • Messaging — send and inspect email, SMS, WhatsApp and voice calls; author and manage templates.
  • Verification — one-time passcode flows end to end.
  • Channel setup — email domain configuration and verification, SMS sender registration and compliance, phone-number provisioning.
  • Deliverability — suppression lists, dedicated IPs and IP pool administration.
  • Audience — contacts, audiences and preference management, plus real-time app provisioning.
  • Utility — address lookups and workspace inspection.

The channel-configuration and deliverability tools are what make this more than a send-a-message wrapper: domain verification, sender registration and suppression handling are exactly the tedious prerequisites that block a messaging integration, and they are all reachable from the same session.

Two ways to connect

Hosted — point any client at https://mcp.bird.com and sign in through a browser consent screen. Nothing to install, no CLI, no API key; OAuth tokens refresh automatically. Bird documents this path for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and ChatGPT.

Local — install the Bird CLI, run bird auth login once, and configure your client to run bird mcp over stdio. This reuses the CLI's stored credentials and suits offline work or shell-capable agents.
