Can I add a new contact to a specific list from the agent?

Yes! Use the `add_contact` action with the List ID and contact details. Your agent will register the new subscriber in Benchmark Email instantly.

How do I see the latest results from my email campaigns?

Simply ask the agent to `list_reports`. You can then use `get_report_details` with a specific Report ID to see opens, clicks, and other engagement metrics.

Does the integration allow me to send a new email campaign?

Currently, the toolset focuses on management and auditing (listing campaigns, managing contacts, checking reports). Sending or scheduling active campaigns must be done through the Benchmark Email dashboard for safety.
