Official Resend plugin for Cursor

The best agent experience requires context provided by tooling like MCP servers, skills, and CLIs. Historically, getting the most out of Cursor with Resend meant installing the MCP server and every skill separately.

Today, we're excited to announce the official Resend plugin for Cursor.

The plugin bundles the MCP server and every Resend Skill into a single install.

What you can do with it

Send from a conversation: send a transactional email without leaving Cursor.
Debug deliverability: pull up logs, inspect a bounce, or check why an email failed.
Manage Contacts and Segments: add contacts, build segments, and clean up email lists in plain language.
Run Broadcasts: draft, schedule, and send a broadcast to an audience.
Check Domains and API Keys: verify domain status, review DNS records, and rotate API keys.

How to use it

To install the plugin, open Cursor and run:

/add-plugin resend

You can also browse the Cursor Marketplace, or open Customize in the sidebar, search for Resend, and select Install.

After install, sign in with your Resend account when Cursor prompts you to authenticate the MCP server.

Email expertise, on by default

Once installed, Cursor activates the right skill automatically:

resend for the SDK and platform APIs
react-email for building templates as React components
email-best-practices for SPF, DKIM, DMARC, compliance, and deliverability
agent-email-inbox for safely processing inbound email with an agent
resend-cli for shell and CI workflows

The MCP server (or Resend CLI) lets Cursor perform actions like sending emails, managing templates, and processing inbound email. Skills ensure the tooling follows best practices in a token-efficient way.

Conclusion

We're excited to see how this connection makes it easier to build with Resend and Cursor. Head to the Cursor page for everything Resend brings to your agent.
