# Give Gemini a task. Give it Bird.

Connect Gemini to Bird’s MCP server. Let your agent inspect your workspace, prepare requests, and follow the result across channels.

[Get started](/dashboard/signup)

[Contact Sales](/demo)

## From prompt to delivered.

Your agent can set up channels, manage customers, and confirm delivery. Full read and write access through MCP and CLI.

**MCP**: `https://mcp.bird.com`

```json
{
  "name": "voice_legs_list"
}
```

Examples: [MCP](/de-de/ai/gemini.mcp.md) · [CLI](/de-de/ai/gemini.cli.md) · [TypeScript](/de-de/ai/gemini.ts.md) · [Python](/de-de/ai/gemini.py.md) · [Go](/de-de/ai/gemini.go.md) · [PHP](/de-de/ai/gemini.php.md) · [HTTP](/de-de/ai/gemini.http.md)

## Connect Gemini. Then get to work.

A server connection and an account authorization are separate steps.

Terminal · Gemini CLI Copy command

```
gemini mcp add bird https://mcp.bird.com --transport http
```

- ### Add Bird

Run the command shown here. If a Bird plugin has already registered the server, keep that existing connection.
- ### Authorize the connection

In Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth bird and complete the browser sign-in.
- ### Check the account

Ask your agent to call whoami and inspect the current workspace before the first product task. A returned identity confirms the sign-in worked.

## A few good places to start.

Give your agent the outcome. Let Bird provide the operations.

Understand a delivery issue Copy prompt

```
Check my recent email failures. Group them by reason, inspect the affected sending domain, and tell me what needs fixing before making changes.
```

Prepare a new channel Copy prompt

```
Help me set up SMS for order updates. Check my workspace and available senders, explain what is missing, then prepare a test for a number I provide.
```

See what is happening now Copy prompt

```
List the Voice calls that are active right now. Separate connected calls from calls that are still ringing, and show their IDs.
```

## Before your first task.

The details that make a connection useful.

Does connecting MCP give my agent unrestricted access?

No. The tools operate within the permissions you hold and choose to delegate during authorization. You can revoke the connection from your Bird account.

Do I need an API key for hosted MCP?

Hosted MCP uses browser sign-in. An application you deploy separately uses its own protected application credential.

What if the tools appear but calls fail?

Check the client’s authentication state. Registering a server URL alone does not sign you in. Reauthorize Bird, then confirm your identity and workspace.

## Keep building.  Everything connects.
