A single binary that gives your AI agent a real email address. Send, receive, reply, draft, sync, and manage contacts, broadcasts, segments, and topics through Resend -- all from the command line. No IMAP. No browser inbox. No MCP server. Just a local SQLite mailbox and a command surface agents discover at runtime.

Works inside any agent harness that can invoke a CLI: Claude Code, Cursor, Warp, Codex, Gemini CLI, plain shell scripts. One Resend API key is the only external requirement.

Pair it with [**Minimail**](https://github.com/paperfoot/minimail-mac) — a macOS menu bar GUI that shells out to this CLI — if you also want a five-second visual peek at the inbox.
