## What do you want BugHerd and BBC iPlayer Business Layer to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

###

### What can start an automation from BugHerd?

Any of BugHerd's 4 triggers in the catalog, including Comment Created, Project Created, Task Created and Task Created or Updated. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in BBC iPlayer Business Layer when something happens in BugHerd?

Any of BBC iPlayer Business Layer's 7 actions, including Get channel schedule, Get episode, Get programme and List categories. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from BBC iPlayer Business Layer to BugHerd?

BBC iPlayer Business Layer has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in BugHerd. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads BBC iPlayer Business Layer's API documentation and adds it.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for BugHerd or BBC iPlayer Business Layer?

No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

###

### Can my AI client use BugHerd and BBC iPlayer Business Layer without building an automation?

Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.

###

### What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
