Manage SendFox contacts, tags, campaigns, lists, forms and automations, and read account usage, over the SendFox REST API.
SendFox ships in the w6w first-party pack. It declares 23 actions, 2 health checks, and the host runs its code in a sandbox that never sees the credential.
io.w6w.sendfoxSendFox is an email-newsletter platform for content creators: contacts organised into lists and tags, and campaigns sent to them.
This app covers the whole send path. It lists, reads, creates, updates and removes contacts, including their per-list memberships, custom fields and tags, and can unsubscribe a contact by email in one call. It creates draft campaigns, sends them, and reads their performance counters. It manages contact lists and subscription forms, and lists automations.
It also sizes an audience before you act on it: the contact list action accepts SendFox’s full filter[...] engagement set and a count_only mode, so a workflow can answer “how many people opened nothing this year” without paging the whole account. The me-get action returns the account’s own contact usage against its plan limit.
Health checks read SendFox’s live rate-limit headers for quota headroom, and declare the missing status page as a positive fact rather than leaving a gap.
Three routes to the same 23 actions. The Workflow tab is generated from SendFox's own manifest and carries its real ids, so it is copy-pasteable; the Code and CLI examples are the same call for any action on any app, so every app-specific value in them is a blank you fill in.
automation-list List the account's automations, including their triggers and steps.
campaign-create Create a campaign draft, optionally schedule it and choose its audience.
campaign-send Send a draft campaign immediately. Requires the campaign to have a list assigned.
campaign-stats-get Read a campaign's sent/open/click/bounce/unsubscribe/spam counters.
contact-activity-get Read a contact's engagement summary and the emails sent to them.
contact-create Create a contact, optionally adding it to lists and setting custom fields.
contact-list List contacts with SendFox's engagement filters, or count them with `count_only`.
contact-tag-list List the account's contact tags, newest first, with each tag's contact count.
list-contacts-add Add an existing contact to a list. Idempotent — no duplicate membership.
A workflow step names the app and the action, and the editor fills in the
connection when you pick one. This is the Step shape from the
workflow spec, carrying SendFox's real ids.

Every app-specific value here is a blank you have to fill in. An
app action is reached through the connection that authenticates it, so the
address is a connection id, not the app id — and connections belong to your account,
so a public page cannot know yours. Create one for SendFox, then fill in
the three blanks: conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID, the action key, and the
parameters that action declares. The call itself is real — the shape is transcribed
from the studio's own snippet builder, which prints the same kind of blanks — but
nothing in it is specific to SendFox. The Workflow tab is where this app's
real ids are.

One MCP endpoint exposes every app, function and workflow the caller is entitled to, as tools it can discover and run. Access is granted per team while we onboard.
One tool call{
"name": "w6w_invoke",
"arguments": {
"ref": "app:io.w6w.sendfox#campaign-create",
"input": {
"title": "<title>",
"subject": "<subject>",
"html": "<html>"
}
}
}
Every tool names its target with a single ref. The
app: form above doesn't name a connection at all — the
host resolves which of the caller's SendFox connections to sign
with, and refuses rather than guesses when the answer is ambiguous.
The token is attached host-side, at the moment of the call. It is never a tool argument, never in the model's context, and never in a transcript — so a prompt injection has nothing to exfiltrate.
Tools are derived per end user from what that person has actually connected and is entitled to — not one shared bot identity carrying the union of everyone's access.
Multi-step work runs on the workflow engine and returns a run handle the agent can poll — retries, branching and state survive the conversation that started them.
SendFox's declared health checks are on the surface too, so an agent can tell "the vendor is down" from "your credential expired" before it burns a retry on either.
The MCP surface is part of the hosted platform. SendFox itself is MIT, and the runtime that executes it is source-available (FSL).
SendFox declares its own checks, so its health is a property of the app rather than something the host guesses at.
No machine-readable status surface: SendFox publishes no status page.
