register_account

Self-register a new account + API key

Create a brand-new Verifly account with no human in the loop — returns an API key and free starter credits.

When an agent uses register_account

register_account is how an agent bootstraps itself with zero human involvement: give it an email and a password (min 8 chars; disposable domains are rejected) and it creates an account pre-loaded with free credits and returns a freshly generated API key. The key is shown ONCE — capture and store it immediately. Every subsequent tool call uses that key as the bearer token. This is the entry point of the fully autonomous flow: register → verify → top up with crypto if needed.

Call it over MCP

An MCP client invokes the tool with a tools/call request. Hosted clients send this to https://verifly.email/mcp with your Authorization: Bearer vf_… header; the verifly-mcp-server package does the same with VERIFLY_API_KEY set.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "register_account",
    "arguments": {
      "email": "my-agent@example.com",
      "password": "a-strong-password"
    }
  }
}

Posting that same call straight to the hosted endpoint:

curl -s -X POST "https://verifly.email/mcp" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer vf_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"register_account","arguments":{"email":"my-agent@example.com","password":"a-strong-password"}}}'

Equivalent raw REST call

Under the hood this tool calls POST /api/v1/autonomous/register. If you are not using MCP, hit the REST API directly:

curl -s -X POST "https://verifly.email/api/v1/autonomous/register" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"email":"my-agent@example.com","password":"a-strong-password"}'

What you get back

A JSON object with the new account id/email and an api_key.key shown ONCE — store it; it cannot be retrieved again. The account starts with free credits.

Required inputs: email, password.
