Pipefire
Provides email authentication and deliverability support for Google Workspace, including checking Google Workspace DKIM selectors and generating SPF records that include Google as a sending service.
This server has a remotely hosted endpoint. Open its connector listing for connection details, authentication requirements, and setup instructions:
Pipefire email deliverability tools
Sixteen free email deliverability tools for your AI agent and your terminal. Check a domain's SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX, BIMI and MTA-STS records, look it up on spam blacklists, read raw email headers, score a cold email and its subject line, and build SPF, DMARC and DKIM records.
Built by Pipefire, cold email software for agencies that sets up and runs outreach for you. The SPF, DMARC and MX checks use the same code Pipefire uses to check its own sending domains, and the cold email checker scores against the same writing rules.
No account. No API key. Nothing you check is stored.
Connect it to your AI agent
It runs as a remote MCP server (streamable HTTP):
https://pipefire.ai/mcpLobeHub, Cline, Cursor or any MCP client: add a remote server with the URL above. See llms-install.md.
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http pipefire https://pipefire.ai/mcpGemini CLI:
gemini extensions install https://github.com/mikelovatt/pipefire-cliClaude and ChatGPT: step by step at pipefire.ai/mcp-server.
Then ask in plain words, for example "Is example.com set up to send email?" or "Score this cold email before I send it".
Pipefire customers: connect the same address in Claude, ChatGPT or Manus and sign in when asked. Your assistant can then read your campaigns, replies, mailboxes and results, draft a new campaign, rewrite a reply draft and pause or resume sending. It never sends an email or launches a campaign: those stay in the Pipefire console behind your click.

Tools
Every tool is read-only. Each one also has a free web version on pipefire.ai.
Tool | What it does | On the web |
| MX, SPF, DKIM and DMARC in one go, each with pass, warn or fail and how to fix it | |
| DMARC policy and reports. Tells you if the domain can be impersonated by email | |
| SPF record, and whether it stays under the 10 DNS lookup limit | |
| DKIM public key. Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 and common selectors are tried | |
| Mail servers and which provider handles the domain's email | |
| BIMI logo record, and whether DMARC is strict enough for it | |
| MTA-STS policy, which forces encrypted delivery of incoming mail | |
| Whether the domain's sending IPs, or one IPv4 address, are on the major spam blacklists | |
| Reads raw email headers: SPF, DKIM and DMARC results, alignment, hops and delays | |
| Scores a cold email out of 10 against the rules Pipefire checks its own emails with | |
| Scores a subject line out of 10: length, wording that hurts opens, spam triggers | |
| Lookalike sending domains, so your main domain never sends cold email | |
| Likely email address formats for a person at a company | |
| Builds an SPF record from the services the domain sends with | |
| Builds a DMARC record from a policy and a reports address | |
| Formats a DKIM public key as the TXT record to publish |
The server also offers a guides resource and two prompts: a full domain audit with a prioritised fix list, and "why did this land in spam?" from a message's headers.
From the terminal
The same tools as a command line app. Needs Node 18 or newer, no dependencies.

| DKIM public key |
| Mail servers and the email provider |
| BIMI logo record |

| Score a cold email subject line |
| Score a whole cold email |
| Ideas for separate cold email sending domains |
| Likely email address formats for a person |

Add --json to any command for raw output. Install it globally with npm install -g pipefire.
$ npx pipefire dmarc example.com
DMARC check for example.com
DMARC (policy and reports): WARN
Record: v=DMARC1;p=reject;sp=reject;adkim=s;aspf=s
Found: Policy p=reject, with no reports address.
Fix: Add rua=mailto:you@yourdomain so you receive the daily reports that show who sends as you.How it works
Every tool calls the same code as the free tools at pipefire.ai/tools, through Pipefire's public MCP endpoint. Checks are rate limited per IP. Nothing you check is stored.
About Pipefire
Pipefire is cold email software for agencies that sets up and runs outreach for you. It buys the sending domains, sets up the mailboxes and warms them for 14 days before any cold email goes out. It finds prospects, writes the emails, sends them at a safe daily pace and sorts the replies. You approve every email before it is sent, and your company domain never sends cold email.
