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/mcp
  • LobeHub, 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/mcp

  • Gemini CLI: gemini extensions install https://github.com/mikelovatt/pipefire-cli

  • Claude 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.

  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.
