Team-wide Elastic Email tools for VS Code
Commit your configuration to the repo with `.vscode/mcp.json`. This ensures every developer on your team has the same access to `list_marketing_campaigns`. It removes the headache of individual setup. Your whole team stays on the same page with access to the same account data.
Automate audit tasks in VS Code
Run `quick_marketing_volume_audit` directly from your editor to check your daily volume. It helps you catch issues before they hit production. You can script these checks into your daily routine. It is a simple way to maintain high deliverability standards.
Query contact records in VS Code
Use `search_contacts_by_email` to look up specific users while you are working on a fix. You don't need to leave your editor to get the info. It keeps your flow steady. You can find the contact profile and verify their status without switching windows.
