Email Sending MCP

by resend

Create Domain

create-domain

Create a sending domain in Resend and retrieve DNS records for verification. Set up these records with your DNS provider to enable email delivery.

Instructions

Create a new domain in Resend. Returns DNS records that must be configured with your DNS provider for verification. You MUST display the DNS records to the user so they can set them up.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
tlsNoTLS mode. "opportunistic" attempts secure connection with fallback. "enforced" requires TLS or fails. Defaults to "opportunistic".
nameYesThe domain name (e.g., example.com)
regionNoDeployment region. Defaults to "us-east-1".
capabilitiesNoDomain capabilities configuration.
openTrackingNoEnable email open rate tracking.
clickTrackingNoEnable click tracking in HTML emails.
customReturnPathNoSubdomain for the Return-Path address. Defaults to "send".
trackingSubdomainNoCustom subdomain for tracking links (e.g., "track" for track.example.com). When set, click and open tracking URLs will use this subdomain instead of the default.
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations, description adds value by noting DNS records must be displayed to user. However, it omits error conditions, return format, and authentication requirements.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two sentences with clear front-loading of purpose and a essential user instruction. No unnecessary words.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Covers the core action and critical user step, but lacks output schema and details on return structure, error cases, and preconditions. Adequate given complexity but leaves gaps.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. Description does not add additional meaning to parameters beyond what the schema already provides.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Clearly states the action (create), resource (domain in Resend), and critical post-step (DNS records must be configured). Distinguishes from sibling tools like update-domain and verify-domain.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No explicit guidance on when to use vs alternatives, no prerequisites or exclusions mentioned. Sibling tools like create-domain-claim or verify-domain are not differentiated.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
