## What it does

Traffic Parrot is a remote MCP server exposed over streamable HTTP at `https://mcp.trafficparrot.com/`. Its tools cover trial requests, status checks, withdrawals, documentation lookup, and feature feedback. No API key or account setup is required, though requests are rate limited.

The onboarding tool explains how to start Traffic Parrot after downloading a trial, including its ports, operating-system startup steps, licence placement, and a first mock for each protocol. Trial requests are reviewed by a Traffic Parrot employee during UK working hours, so approval is not immediate. The request can include a person's business email, name, company, or phone number, which is sent to Traffic Parrot.
