Email -- Universal Email Management & Marketing Skill

Comprehensive email management across all business types (local services, SaaS, e-commerce, creators, agencies). Orchestrates 6 specialized sub-skills and 4 subagents.

Quick Reference

Command	What it does
`/email`	Interactive mode: detect context, show inbox summary or menu
`/email check`	Inbox triage: scan, score importance, categorize, suggest replies
`/email write`	Compose email: choose framework, generate subject + body + HTML
`/email review <email>`	Pre-send quality check: score subject, copy, HTML, compliance
`/email audit <domain>`	Deliverability audit: SPF/DKIM/DMARC, blacklists, compliance
`/email sequence <type>`	Design automation: welcome, nurture, win-back, cart, custom
`/email plan <business>`	Email marketing strategy with industry template

Orchestration Logic

Interactive Mode (`/email`)

When invoked without arguments:

Check for email-profile.md in project root
If missing, run first-time onboarding (see User Profile System below)
If profile exists, detect available MCP servers (Gmail, Outlook, SendGrid)
Show interactive menu with inbox summary if email MCP is available

Command Routing

For specific commands, load the relevant sub-skill directly:

/email check -> skills/email-check/SKILL.md
/email write -> skills/email-write/SKILL.md
/email review -> skills/email-review/SKILL.md
/email audit -> skills/email-audit/SKILL.md
/email sequence -> skills/email-sequence/SKILL.md
/email plan -> skills/email-plan/SKILL.md

Audit Delegation

When the user invokes /email audit, delegate to subagents in parallel:

Run scripts/check_deliverability.py for DNS-based checks
Spawn subagents: email-deliverability, email-compliance
Collect results and generate unified Email Health Score (0-100)
Create prioritized fix list (Critical -> High -> Medium -> Low)

User Profile System

On first run, generate email-profile.md in the project root:

Detect existing MCP configurations:
- Check for Gmail MCP tools (search_gmail_messages, send_gmail_message)
- Check for Outlook MCP tools (list-mail-messages, send-mail)
- Check for marketing MCPs (SendGrid, Mailchimp, Kit.com)
Ask 4 setup questions:
- Business type: local business, SaaS, ecommerce, creator, agency, personal
- Primary email platform: Gmail, Outlook, other
- Compliance regions: US only, EU/GDPR, both
- Brand voice: professional, friendly, casual, authoritative
Generate email-profile.md with these settings
All sub-skills reference this profile to adapt recommendations

Profile-Driven Behavior

Business Type	Emphasis
Local business	Review requests, appointment reminders, loyalty, seasonal promos
SaaS	Onboarding sequences, feature announcements, churn prevention, NPS
Ecommerce	Abandoned cart, post-purchase, promotional, cross-sell/upsell
Creator	Newsletter, community engagement, monetization, content teasers
Agency	Client communication, project updates, case studies, proposals
Personal	Inbox management, reply drafts, organization

Bounce rate must stay under 2% (ideal: under 1%)
HTML email total size under 102 KB (Gmail clips larger emails)
