Avoid triggering spam filters with your email content. Use when emails land in spam, auditing content for filter triggers, checking link patterns, or optimizing HTML structure.

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

# Spam Filter Avoidance

Understand how spam filters evaluate your email and write content that passes cleanly - without tricks.

## When to use this skill

- Writing email content and want to avoid common spam filter triggers
- Emails are landing in spam despite good authentication and reputation
- Building HTML email templates and need to know what patterns get flagged
- Generating email content programmatically (AI agents, templates with dynamic variables)
- Diagnosing why a specific email was filtered when everything else looks correct
- Reviewing outbound email for content-level deliverability risks

## Related skills

- `inbox-placement` - the full picture of what determines inbox vs spam (reputation, engagement, authentication, and content)
- `domain-authentication` - SPF, DKIM, DMARC setup (filters check authentication before content)
- `sender-reputation` - reputation signals that outweigh content in filter decisions
- `template-design` - building HTML emails that render correctly and avoid structural triggers
- `email-compliance` - legal requirements like unsubscribe links that also affect filtering

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add chunkydotdev/email-skills/spam-filter-avoidance@sha256:3928c0c2d8fc02a1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260330.4128460, 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.
