Connect Minutemailer MCP to Claude Code
Create your Vinkius account to connect Minutemailer to Claude Code and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Manage subscribers directly from your terminal
The `create_contact` tool lets you register new users directly from a shell prompt. You can pipe a list of emails from a CSV file straight into Claude Code to populate your marketing directories. To keep your database clean, use `delete_contact` to remove bounces or unsubscribes. The MCP connection lets the CLI agent query `list_contacts` to find matches and purges them without you ever opening a browser.
Inspect templates and events from the command line
The `list_templates` tool retrieves your active marketing layouts directly into your terminal output. You can pipe this data to local files or view the raw structures directly within your shell session. The agent also runs `list_events` to check delivery logs and user interactions. This lets you write quick cron jobs that monitor your campaign performance and save the results to your server logs.
Query Minutemailer list structures via CLI
The `list_contact_lists` tool exposes your entire subscriber directory tree to your terminal. Claude Code can pull these lists, filter them using standard shell utilities, and prepare targeted campaign segments. You can also query `list_smart_lists` to check your dynamic segments. This MCP Server setup helps the CLI agent verify which users belong to which automated marketing tracks before you run your deployments.
