CLI mailer control with Claude Code
Pipe `send_greeting_card` results directly into your shell logs. This lets you confirm deliveries as part of a larger build or deployment script. It removes the need for a web dashboard. You control the entire mailing process from your terminal prompt.
Terminal-based AMcards management
Use `list_card_templates` to pull available designs into your local environment. You can then use those IDs to trigger mailers from a shell script. This is perfect for cron jobs that send notes based on database events. Claude Code handles the tool execution in the background.
Monitor AMcards health via Claude Code
Run `check_api_health` to verify connectivity before starting a batch job. It returns a simple status code you can use in your pipeline logic. If the service is down, your script can halt before wasting requests. It gives you immediate feedback on your integration status.
