## What it does

This skill walks through wiring AI coding assistants to Resend by compiling and registering the official `resend/mcp-send-email` repository. Once configured, agents handle delivery for plain text and formatted HTML emails. They can also set BCC headers, schedule delivery times, and trigger campaigns across saved audiences.

The underlying MCP server requires Node.js 20 or higher and builds using `npm run build`. Without an active `RESEND_API_KEY` token, the email service rejects all incoming tool requests. The skill covers parameter setups for repository secrets in GitHub Copilot, Cursor settings, or local `.vscode/mcp.json` files.
