AI / Replit
Your Replit app can send email
Bird is in Replit Agent's MCP list, so the setup is one sign-in. Agent then writes the call, one secret carries the key, and the app sends through Bird from the first run.
Connect Bird, then ask for the email
Connecting Bird over MCP hands the agent the tools to finish the setup itself: it mints the key, stores it, and proves the send. Your own domain is the step before launch, not before the first test.
Three things and it works.Agent talks to Bird over MCP. The app it builds talks to Bird with these three.
A key, kept server-side. One key carries the region and the permissions. Store it as a secret so it never reaches the browser.
$ Developers → API keys
A sender you are allowed to use. Start on the onboarding domain, move to your own when you launch. Sending from an unverified domain bounces.
$ onboarding@messagebird.dev
One call per message. The SDK reads the region from your key, so there is no host to configure. A send returns accepted, and delivery follows.
$ npm install @messagebird/sdk
