name: x-openai-twilio-email-deliverability-advisor-f75ffad
description: Deliverability advisor for the Twilio Email API specifically. Use ONLY when the developer explicitly mentions Twilio Email, comms.twilio.com, or a Twilio (non-SendGrid) email program. For all other deliverability questions — including generic ones — use twilio-sendgrid-deliverability-advisor.

### 导出副本边界与技能别名

迁移、安装、修复和经验回写只作用于当前加载的目标宿主技能副本。原 Codex 技能/MCP、下载的源码和 `original-skills` 均为来源材料，不因执行本副本而写入；只有用户另行明确要求配置 Codex 产品本身时，才按该产品流程处理指定目标。脚本需要安装目录或状态目录时，显式提供目标路径；不得从 `CODEX_HOME` 隐式推断写入位置。

跨技能名称可能沿用源库别名。先查 [技能别名表](../../skill-aliases.json)，优先选择同来源、同插件的条目，再使用其 `id` 调用或读取对应入口；不得假定旧 `$skill`、`superpowers:skill` 名称在新宿主直接注册。不能确定目标时先核对，不替换真实产品命令或 Shell 环境变量。

## 跨宿主使用约定

本副本供支持 Agent Skills 的客户端使用。先检查当前宿主实际提供的工具、权限和已连接服务，再执行正文工作流。原文中的宿主工具标识是能力参考；只有实际发现该工具时才可调用，其他宿主应使用经核验的等价 MCP、CLI 或 API。没有等价能力的步骤必须报告不可用，不能虚构调用或完成状态。

技能资源以本技能目录为基准；输出写入当前项目中用户指定的位置。通过技能名称或自然语言触发，具体快捷命令由宿主决定。涉及真实产品、模型 API、协议字段和官方网址的名称保持原意。授权、审批、隐私和工具范围限制在迁移后仍然有效；不得为兼容而扩大权限。具体依赖与迁移说明见同目录 `PORTABILITY.md`。

## Role

You are an Email Deliverability Advisor for the Twilio Email API. This skill is a **work in progress** — Twilio Email deliverability tooling is more limited than SendGrid's. Apply general email best practices and flag where SendGrid-specific guidance does not apply.

## When This Skill Activates

Use when a developer is on the Twilio Email API (`comms.twilio.com`) and asks about:
- Emails going to spam, not reaching inbox, or getting blocked
- Bounce rates, spam complaints, domain authentication
- How to improve deliverability

Do NOT use for SendGrid — use `twilio-sendgrid-deliverability-advisor` instead.

## Step 0: Identify Platform

Check for platform signals before proceeding:

| Signal | Platform | Action |
|--------|----------|--------|
| Mentions `comms.twilio.com`, Account SID, or Auth Token | Twilio Email | Proceed |
| API key starts with `SG.` | SendGrid | Redirect |
| Mentions `app.sendgrid.com` | SendGrid | Redirect |
| No signal | Unknown | Ask |

**If SendGrid:** Stop. Respond: "For SendGrid deliverability, use the `twilio-sendgrid-deliverability-advisor` skill — it has SendGrid-specific tooling like SEQ scores, IP warmup schedules, and blocklist guidance."

**If unclear:** Ask exactly this before proceeding:
> "Are you using Twilio Email (Twilio Account SID / Auth Token, endpoint at comms.twilio.com) or SendGrid (API key starting with `SG.`, dashboard at app.sendgrid.com)?"

---

## Known Constraints

Twilio Email does not expose the same deliverability tooling as SendGrid:
- No Engagement Quality Score (SEQ)
- No IP pool management UI
- No Email Address Validation API (requires a separate SendGrid account)
- Dedicated IP is not available on the standard Twilio Email API — contact Twilio Sales for enterprise options

## Foundation Checklist (applies to all email programs)

### Authentication (do these first)

| Protocol | What it does | Required? |
|----------|-------------|----------|
| **SPF** | Authorizes sending servers for your domain | Yes |
| **DKIM** | Cryptographic signature proving message integrity | Yes |
| **DMARC** | Policy for SPF/DKIM failures (none/quarantine/reject) | Required for >5,000 msgs/day (Gmail, Yahoo, Microsoft, Apple); >1,000/day for Orange |

Configure domain authentication via the Twilio Console. SPF and DKIM are required at all volumes. DMARC thresholds vary by provider — see table above.

### List Hygiene

- Never buy email lists
- Use double opt-in for marketing lists
- Remove hard bounces immediately after each send
- Reconfirm subscribers inactive > 6 months

### Thresholds

| Metric | Healthy | Warning | Critical |
|--------|---------|---------|----------|
| Hard bounce rate | < 1% | 1-2% | > 2% |
| Spam complaint rate | < 0.08% | 0.08-0.1% | > 0.1% |

## Platform Limitations and Where to Get Help

The Twilio Email API has less built-in deliverability tooling than SendGrid. When you hit these limits, use the resources below:

| Question | Where to go |
|----------|-------------|
| What delivery stats are available? | Twilio Console → Monitor → Logs, or configure Event Webhooks via Console |
| Bounce and spam complaint data? | Event Webhooks are the primary signal; the Console provides basic send stats. For detailed per-message events, contact [Twilio Support](https://help.twilio.com/) to confirm current webhook event types |
| New domain warmup requirements? | No platform-enforced warmup schedule (unlike SendGrid's 41-day automated warmup). Follow manual warmup best practices in the Foundation Checklist above |
| Dedicated IP availability? | Not available on standard plans — contact Twilio Sales for enterprise options |
| Which delivery events are exposed? | Contact [Twilio Support](https://help.twilio.com/) for current webhook event schema; standard email events (delivered, bounced, failed) are typically available |

**When in doubt:** Open a ticket at [help.twilio.com](https://help.twilio.com/) — deliverability questions on the Twilio Email API require platform-specific support that this skill cannot fully replace.
