Stopped at sign up: needs a human. Next: let an agent sign up on its own
A person has to set it up: L1 · Needs a person. Our agent read the docs headlessly without trouble, then stopped at sign-up, where a visible reCAPTCHA checkbox follows the sign-up form before any verification mail goes out. Without an account there was no personal access token, no OAuth consent and no completed MCP connection, so the API and the hosted MCP server both answered unauthorized and no scheduling action ran. Pricing stayed out of reach too: the billing page sits behind the same login, so our agent never saw checkout, upgrade or cancel, and no account existed to delete.

Stopped at sign up: needs a human. Next: let an agent sign up on its own
A person has to get this one started: L1 · Needs a person. Our agent stopped at the sign-up form itself, where a visible hCaptcha image puzzle appears on page load, before it could reach verification, a token, or any endpoint. Documentation covers events, scheduling links, the current user, time zones, webhooks and workflows, with PAT and OAuth auth, but every call without a token returns an unauthenticated response, so none of that surface got exercised. Plans are bought on the web billing page, reachable only after a human clears sign-up, and both cancelling and deleting an account stay web-only with no API route either way.

A challenge on the form: It asks every visitor to prove they are human. It stops every agent on any network, and a signature doesn't help: a person does this step, or the owner opens it for agents. Where we drive from.
