**Add transactional email, SMS, push, and web-push notifications to any app — straight from your AI coding agent.** Portable AI-agent skills for [SenderKit](https://www.senderkit.com), packaged as a plugin for Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, opencode, and other Agent Skills-compatible coding assistants.

SenderKit sends email, SMS, push, and web-push directly, and can also route through providers like Resend, SendGrid, Postmark, Mailgun, SES, Twilio, FCM, APNs, and Expo — so your app isn't locked into one vendor. These skills let an agent wire SenderKit into your codebase and operate it at runtime over MCP.

This repository contains one `senderkit` plugin with three related skills:

- `senderkit-integration` - add SenderKit to an app, or replace/route an existing email, SMS, or push provider through it.
- `senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations` - send and inspect messages at runtime through the SenderKit MCP connector.
- `senderkit-email-deliverability` - authenticate a sending domain (SPF/DKIM/DMARC) so email reaches the inbox.

## What can I ask?

You don't need to name SenderKit — these skills activate on everyday messaging requests. Examples:

| You ask | Skill that helps |
| --- | --- |
| "Add a welcome email when a user signs up" | `senderkit-integration` |
| "Set up SMS OTP / verification codes" | `senderkit-integration` |
| "Add push notifications to this project" | `senderkit-integration` |
| "Send password-reset and receipt emails" | `senderkit-integration` |
| "Switch my email provider to SenderKit (or route through it, no lock-in)" | `senderkit-integration` |
| "Send a test email and check its delivery status" | `senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations` |
| "Why did this message fail? Cancel that scheduled send" | `senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations` |
| "Why are my emails going to spam? Set up DKIM/SPF/DMARC" | `senderkit-email-deliverability` |

Rule of thumb: **integration** writes SenderKit into your code; **messaging operations** sends and inspects messages at runtime via MCP.

## Install

This repo ships per-platform metadata — Claude Code (`.claude-plugin/`), OpenAI Codex (`.codex-plugin/`), Cursor (`.cursor-plugin/`), and opencode (`opencode.json`) — and the authored skills under `./skills/`. Pick your agent below; each path ends with a quick check so you know it worked.

### Any agent (skills CLI)

The [skills CLI](https://skills.sh) installs the skills into the right location for whichever agent you use (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, opencode, and others):

```bash
npx skills add senderkit/senderkit-skills
```

It detects your agent, lists the three skills, and copies the ones you pick. This installs the skills only — to get the `senderkit_*` MCP tools, also connect the MCP server (see [Connect the SenderKit MCP server](#connect-the-senderkit-mcp-server)).

**Check it works:** ask your agent *"Use senderkit-integration to add a welcome email."*

### Claude Code

From the marketplace (recommended):

```text
/plugin marketplace add senderkit/senderkit-skills
/plugin install senderkit@senderkit-skills
```

From a local checkout (for development):

```bash
claude --plugin-dir .
```

This loads both skills and the SenderKit MCP server from the repo's `.mcp.json` (OAuth, no key stored). Run `/mcp`, sign in, and pick a workspace and test/live mode.

**Check it works:** run `/mcp` — the `senderkit` server should be connected — or ask *"Use senderkit-integration to add a welcome email."*

### OpenAI Codex

> "ChatGPT" support means **Codex**, OpenAI's coding agent (CLI / IDE extension / app). The ChatGPT chat app does not load skills.

Codex discovers skills from `.agents/skills/` directories. Vendor the skills into your user scope (available in every repo) or a single repo's scope:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/senderkit/senderkit-skills.git
mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills
cp -R senderkit-skills/skills/senderkit-integration ~/.agents/skills/
cp -R senderkit-skills/skills/senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations ~/.agents/skills/
# repo-scoped instead? copy into <your-repo>/.agents/skills/
```

Restart Codex so it picks them up. Connect MCP: the bundled `.codex-plugin/mcp.json` points Codex at `https://mcp.senderkit.com` over OAuth — run `codex mcp login senderkit` to sign in (no key stored). Prefer an API key? See [API key (optional)](#api-key-optional) below, or run `senderkit mcp install --client codex`.

**Check it works:** run `/skills` (the SenderKit skills should be listed) or invoke one explicitly with `$senderkit-integration`.

Distributing the full plugin (skills + MCP) to a team? Publish this repo as a Codex marketplace and install via `codex` → `/plugins`. See <https://developers.openai.com/codex/plugins/build>.

### Cursor

For an individual install, load this repo as a local plugin:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/senderkit/senderkit-skills.git
ln -s "$(pwd)/senderkit-skills" ~/.cursor/plugins/local/senderkit
```

Reload Cursor (**Developer: Reload Window**). Skills show up under Settings → Rules & Skills and can be invoked with `/senderkit-integration`. Connect MCP: the bundled `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json` points Cursor at `https://mcp.senderkit.com` over OAuth — open Settings → MCP, toggle the server on, and sign in (no key stored). Prefer an API key? See [API key (optional)](#api-key-optional) below, or run `senderkit mcp install --client cursor`.

For teams, import this GitHub repo as a Team Marketplace (Dashboard → Settings → Plugins; Teams/Enterprise plans). See <https://cursor.com/docs/plugins>.

**Check it works:** type `/senderkit-integration` in chat, or ask *"Send a test email and check its status via SenderKit MCP."*

### opencode

opencode auto-discovers Agent Skills (one folder per skill, `SKILL.md` inside) from `~/.config/opencode/skills/` (user scope, every repo) or `.opencode/skills/` (repo scope) — and also reads `.claude/skills/` and `.agents/skills/`, so the same skill folders work unchanged. Vendor them in:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/senderkit/senderkit-skills.git
mkdir -p ~/.config/opencode/skills
cp -R senderkit-skills/skills/senderkit-integration ~/.config/opencode/skills/
cp -R senderkit-skills/skills/senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations ~/.config/opencode/skills/
cp -R senderkit-skills/skills/senderkit-email-deliverability ~/.config/opencode/skills/
# repo-scoped instead? copy into <your-repo>/.opencode/skills/
```

Connect MCP: merge the `mcp` block from this repo's [`opencode.json`](opencode.json) into your own `opencode.json` (project root or `~/.config/opencode/opencode.json`). It points opencode at `https://mcp.senderkit.com` as a `"type": "remote"` server with no auth, so opencode runs the OAuth flow on first use (no key stored). Sign in with `opencode mcp auth senderkit`. Prefer an API key? See [API key (optional)](#api-key-optional) below.

**Check it works:** run `opencode mcp list` (the `senderkit` server should be listed) or ask *"Use senderkit-integration to add a welcome email."*

### Connect the SenderKit MCP server

Installing the plugin/skills gives you the `senderkit_*` MCP tools. Auth differs per client:

- **Claude Code** — OAuth via the repo's `.mcp.json`. Run `/mcp`, sign in, pick a workspace and test/live mode. **No API key is stored in the repo.**
- **Cursor** — OAuth via the bundled `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json`. Toggle the server under Settings → MCP and sign in. **No API key is stored in the repo.**
- **Codex** — OAuth via the bundled `.codex-plugin/mcp.json`. Run `codex mcp login senderkit` to sign in. **No API key is stored in the repo.**
- **opencode** — OAuth via the bundled `opencode.json` (`"type": "remote"`, `url` only). Run `opencode mcp auth senderkit` to sign in. **No API key is stored in the repo.**

#### API key (optional)

Every shipped manifest is OAuth-only, so **no credential is committed**. `mcp.senderkit.com` also accepts an API key if you'd rather skip OAuth — set `SENDERKIT_API_KEY` (the `sk_live_` / `sk_test_` prefix selects mode) and add it in **your own** MCP config:

- **Cursor / Claude Code / Windsurf** — add an `Authorization` header, e.g. in `~/.cursor/mcp.json`:
  ```json
  {
    "mcpServers": {
      "senderkit": {
        "url": "https://mcp.senderkit.com",
        "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:SENDERKIT_API_KEY}" }
      }
    }
  }
  ```
- **Codex** — add `"bearer_token_env_var": "SENDERKIT_API_KEY"` to the `senderkit` server in your own `.codex-plugin/mcp.json` (or `~/.codex/config.toml`).
- **opencode** — in your own `opencode.json`, set `"oauth": false` on the `senderkit` server and add a header: `"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer {env:SENDERKIT_API_KEY}" }` (opencode interpolates `{env:VAR}`).

Other clients (Windsurf, VS Code, Zed, Claude Desktop) and manual config: see [`skills/senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations/README.md`](skills/senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations/README.md#connecting-the-senderkit-mcp-server) and [`https://docs.senderkit.com/mcp/installation`](https://docs.senderkit.com/mcp/installation). The SenderKit CLI can also write the config for you: `senderkit mcp install --client cursor` (or `codex`, `claude-code`, `vscode`, `zed`, `all`).

## Skills

### SenderKit Integration

Use `senderkit-integration` when an agent needs to modify an application: detect the stack, add SenderKit, migrate provider calls, preserve existing notification behavior, and verify the integration before live traffic.

Suggested prompt:

```text
Use $senderkit-integration to add SenderKit transactional messaging to this project.
```

Claude Code plugin command:

```text
/senderkit:senderkit-integration
```

### SenderKit MCP Messaging Operations

Use `senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations` when an agent has access to the SenderKit MCP server and needs to send messages, inspect templates, check message status, or cancel pending sends through MCP tool calls.

Suggested prompt:

```text
Use $senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations to send a test message and verify its status through SenderKit MCP.
```

Claude Code plugin command:

```text
/senderkit:senderkit-mcp-messaging-operations
```

### SenderKit Email Deliverability

Use `senderkit-email-deliverability` when transactional email needs to be authenticated to reach the inbox: diagnose current SPF/DKIM/DMARC with `dig`, generate the exact records to add, point to the SenderKit dashboard for issued values, and verify publication.

Suggested prompt:

```text
Use $senderkit-email-deliverability to diagnose and fix SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for my sending domain.
```

Claude Code plugin command:

```text
/senderkit:senderkit-email-deliverability
```
