ColdSend MCP Server

AI-Native Email Campaign Management via Model Context Protocol

ColdSend MCP Server enables AI assistants like Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor IDE, Windsurf, OpenCode, and other MCP-compatible clients to manage cold email campaigns through natural language.

The server supports dual transport — Streamable HTTP (modern) and SSE (legacy) — for maximum client compatibility.

Installation

pip install coldsend-mcp-server

Quick Start

You only need your ColdSend API key to get started.

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coldsend": {
      "command": "coldsend-mcp",
      "env": {
        "X-API-Key": "your-coldsend-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add coldsend https://mcp.coldsend.pro/mcp -t http -e X-API-Key=your-api-key

Cursor IDE / Windsurf

1. Open Settings -> MCP
2. Add new MCP server:
   • Name: ColdSend
   • Type: http (Streamable HTTP)
   • URL: https://mcp.coldsend.pro/mcp
   • Headers: X-API-Key: your-api-key

OpenCode

Add to your opencode.jsonc:

{
  "mcp": {
    "coldsend": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://mcp.coldsend.pro/sse",
      "enabled": true,

      }
    }
  }
}

Authentication

The MCP server uses API key authentication. Pass your ColdSend API key via the X-API-Key header — the server forwards it securely to the ColdSend API.
