This is a simple MCP server that sends emails using Resend's API. Why? Now you can let Cursor or Claude Desktop compose emails for you and send it right away without having to copy and paste the email content.

### Manual Installation
Add the following JSON block to your User Settings (JSON) file in VS Code. You can do this by pressing `Ctrl + Shift + P` and typing `Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)`.

```json
{
"mcp": {
"inputs": [
{
"type": "promptString",
"id": "resendApiKey",
"description": "Resend API Key",
"password": true
},
{
"type": "promptString",
"id": "senderEmail",
"description": "Sender Email Address"
},
{
"type": "promptString",
"id": "replyToEmails",
"description": "Reply-To Email Addresses (comma separated)"
}
],
"servers": {
"resend-email": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["build/index.js"],
"env": {
"RESEND_API_KEY": "${input:resendApiKey}",
"SENDER_EMAIL_ADDRESS": "${input:senderEmail}",
"REPLY_TO_EMAIL_ADDRESSES": "${input:replyToEmails}"
}
}
}
}
}
```

Optionally, you can add it to a file called `.vscode/mcp.json` in your workspace. Note when you do this you will no longer need the `"mcp":{}` key in this json file.
