Send16 enhances email API for AI agents with zero-DNS sandbox and identity endpoint

Send16, an email platform, has been updated to be more agent-native, meaning AI agents can now complete tasks without human intervention. Key changes include a zero-DNS sandbox sender for initial onboarding, an identity endpoint that provides agents with workspace and account information, and an `llms.txt` file detailing the API contract for runtimes that cannot install SDKs. Additionally, the platform now supports multi-tenant key threading and ensures that the `tools/list` function succeeds even without an API key, crucial for agent discovery and initialization. AI

IMPACT Enhances AI agent capabilities by simplifying integration with email services, potentially streamlining automated workflows.

RANK_REASON The item describes an update to an existing product (an email API) to improve its compatibility with AI agents, rather than a novel release or significant industry shift.

    Making an email API agent-native: llms.txt, a /api/me endpoint, and a zero-DNS sandbox sender

    <p>Most APIs are "agent-compatible": an agent <em>can</em> call them. Far fewer are <em>agent-native</em>: an agent can accomplish the whole job on its own, with no human un-sticking it halfway. We spent a few weeks turning <a href="https://send16.com" rel="noopener noreferrer">S…
