Code with Copilot. Connect with Bird.

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

Can you check which calls are active right now and tell me which are connected and which are still ringing?

Connect GitHub Copilot. Then get to work.

The plugin adds two Bird skills. The MCP server takes one config entry, and signing in to your workspace is a separate step.

Install in VS Code
Terminal · Plugin
copilot plugin marketplace add messagebird/bird-ai
copilot plugin install bird@bird-ai
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "bird": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.bird.com"
    }
  }
}

  1. Install the skills

    In Copilot CLI, run the plugin commands to add the bird-cli and email-audit skills. They teach Copilot how Bird works. The plugin does not register the MCP server, so add it next.

    Without the plugin, npx skills add messagebird/bird-ai installs the same two skills.

  2. Add Bird

    Select Install in VS Code, or save this as .vscode/mcp.json in your project.

    Using settings.json instead? Add the same entry as mcp.servers.bird, and VS Code moves it into your user mcp.json.

  3. Authorize the connection

    Start Bird from MCP: List Servers in VS Code. Complete the browser sign-in, then use the tools in Copilot agent mode.

  4. 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.

Read the setup guide

A few good places to start.

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

Understand a delivery issue
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
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
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. Take the next step with the tools and guides for your project.
