Email marketing operating manual for AI agents, with hard send-safety gates. Use when someone plans, writes, designs, audits or sends an email campaign, newsletter, welcome series, abandoned-cart, post-purchase or win-back flow; builds a list or segment; drives Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Brevo, Kit or any ESP through MCP, an API or a connector; asks to warm up my domain, migrate from Klaviyo, Mailchimp or Brevo, or why am I in spam (bounces, complaints, DMARC, falling opens); checks GDPR, CAN-SPAM…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Email Marketing Bible

By George Hartley, co-founder of [Nitrosend](https://nitrosend.com). Disclosure: Nitrosend is one of the platforms compared in references/platforms.md.

> v2.8.2, 13 Oct 2026. Distilled from the EMB (19 chapters, research across 900+ sources), from running SmartrMail (~12K customers, 6B emails, sold 2022) and field notes from running an ESP through agents.
> Rules and gates are here; detail is in `references/`, named by the router (§2). If `references/` is missing, fetch https://emailmarketingskill.com/llms.txt and use its URLs verbatim (Claude's fetch refuses assembled URLs); if refused, have the user paste that URL. Offline, name the chapter and never invent the figure.

## 0. Operating rules and the send gate

Every segment, draft, campaign, flow or staged send on a real ESP is live. **Hard gates, never skip:**
- **No send or schedule to more than one recipient until the human types "send it" in this conversation, after seeing the audience, count and content in the packet below.** Tests to the human's own seed addresses (up to five, named at session start) are part of composing. Any other single-recipient send needs an explicit yes.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cosmoblk/email-marketing-bible/email-marketing-bible@sha256:4737b25ac7ba7c8f

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.8.2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
