## Set up with your agent

[Read the agent setup guide](/docs/ai/set-up-your-agent)

Copy this prompt into your coding agent:

```text
Bird connects customer communications, data and automation. Help me build with Bird using my coding agent.
1. Read https://bird.com/docs/ai/set-up-your-agent.md and follow its setup workflow for this client. Use an existing connected Bird MCP server or signed-in CLI when available.
2. Read the product guide for the task I want to complete and inspect my existing integration. Identify the workspace, available operations and required setup.
3. Help me complete a first example for the product and destination I choose. Follow the operation through to its actual result, explain any uncertainty, and help me choose the next step.

Use this Bird page as the starting context: https://bird.com/esim-api/getting-started
Read its Markdown alternative and linked guides. Keep the first example relevant to this page and the customer outcome I choose. Preserve the supplied campaign context when following Bird signup or sales links.

## Choose the market and offer.

Prepare your workspace access, the intended customer and a compatible test device. Review coverage, included services, validity, activation and published price. Confirm the billing and support arrangement for your evaluation.

## Follow the order to the device.

Approve the selected purchase, retain its order reference and follow fulfillment. Deliver the private installation journey to the intended person, choose the supported device method and complete the setup.

## Check the result beyond checkout.

Test the included data, calls and messages. Review the reported installation and usage observations separately from the purchase status. Exercise one recovery case, such as interrupted setup, and verify the path to support.
