How do I connect my Resend account?

You subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius and enter your Resend API key. Once connected, your AI client can immediately start using the capabilities.

Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

You can use any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

Can I send HTML emails through the AI?

Yes. The send_email and send_batch_emails capabilities allow you to include HTML content in your messages.

Can I check if an email was delivered?

Yes. You can use the get_email capability to retrieve delivery status and metadata for specific messages.

Do I need to manage DNS records manually?

The MCP can help by returning the necessary DNS records via the add_domain capability to assist with domain verification.

Can I send an email with HTML content and track whether it was delivered?

Absolutely. Use the send_email capability with your HTML body, then use get_email with the returned ID to check delivery status, open events, and bounce details in real time.

How do I check if my sending domain DNS records are correctly configured?

Run list_domains to find your domain ID, then use get_domain to inspect the full DNS record set (SPF, DKIM, return path). If records are pending, trigger verify_domain to re-check.

Can I add subscribers to an audience for broadcast campaigns?

Yes. First use list_audiences to get the target audience ID, then call create_contact with the subscriber's email and optional name fields. The contact is immediately available for broadcast targeting.

Waiting for input…

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Put Resend to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Resend works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Resend to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Resend, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Resend. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.
