Integration

Mandrill integration

Mandrill, the Mailchimp Transactional API, for one-to-one transactional email: send a message or a stored template, search the send history, read the metadata and the rendered content of a delivered message, manage subaccounts, create, read and render templates, and check that the key works. Every call is a POST and the API key travels inside the JSON body.

What you can do with Mandrill

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Use Mandrill from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Mandrill in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Mandrill operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
