## About

Resend's official MCP server lets agents send transactional email and work with contacts, audiences, broadcasts and domains in Resend. A hosted remote server is available with OAuth sign-in or an API key as a bearer token, and the same open-source code runs locally via npx with RESEND_API_KEY. Local file attachments can be restricted to chosen directories.

## Install

1. **Connect it in ChatGPT** Turn on Developer mode in ChatGPT (Settings → Security and login), open Plugins, select + and paste https://mcp.resend.com/mcp as the MCP server URL, then sign in with OAuth. Add it to a chat from the composer's tools menu.

2. **Or add it to Codex or the API**

   Codex CLI:

   ```bash
   codex mcp add resend --url https://mcp.resend.com/mcp
   codex mcp login resend
   ```

   config.toml:

   ```toml
   [mcp_servers.resend]
   url = "https://mcp.resend.com/mcp"
   ```

   Responses API:

   ```python
   import os
   from openai import OpenAI
   
   client = OpenAI()

       }],
