 ## Install
 
 **Claude Code plugin** (the MCP server and the skills together):
 
+```
+/plugin install rollstack --marketplace Rollstack/skills
+```
+
+Or in two steps, on Claude Code before 2.1.275:
+
 ```
 /plugin marketplace add Rollstack/skills
 /plugin install rollstack@rollstack
 ```
 
+The plugin adds one remote MCP server, `https://api.rollstack.com/public/v1/mcp`, which you sign in to with your Rollstack account. It runs nothing on your machine.
+
 **Skills only**, with the [skills CLI](https://skills.sh):

+# Send a Rollstack report by email safely
+
+An email goes to real people and can't be unsent. Show the user who gets it before anything is sent, and send a test first. Set up the connection with the `rollstack-getting-started` skill.
+
+Only `SlideDeck` reports have email settings here. Check the report's `type` with `getReport` first.
+
+## 1. Read the current setup
+
+Call `getReportEmailConfig`. A 404 means the email isn't set up yet. Otherwise it answers:
+
+- `to`, `cc`, `bcc` and `replyTo`: who gets it and where replies go.
+- `smtpServerId`: the sender. `null` sends it from Rollstack's own address.
+- `sharingFormat`: `pdf` or `ppt` sends the slides as a file, and `cloudLink` sends a link to the copy exported to Google Drive or OneDrive.
+- `trigger`: which runs email it on their own (see step 5).
+
+## 2. Change the recipients or how it's sent
+
+`updateReportEmailConfig` **replaces** the whole setup. A field you leave out goes back to its default, so:
+
+1. Start from what `getReportEmailConfig` answered.
+2. Change only what the user asked for.
+3. Show the user the recipients you're about to set, then send every field.
+
+Each field:
+
+- `to` is required. `to`, `cc` and `bcc` hold at most 100 addresses together.
+- `groupRecipients: false` sends each address in `to` its own email.
+- `smtpServerId` comes from `listSmtpConnections`: the user's own SMTP connections and those shared with the organization.
+- `sendAttachmentAsLink` (`true` by default) puts the PDF or PowerPoint file behind a download button instead of attaching it.
+- `cloudLink` needs the report's export set up in the app first. Until then, its emails fail to send.
+
+## 3. Send a test
+
+Call `sendReportTestEmail`. It sends the email to the user only, and waits until it's sent. Ask them to check it: the subject, the body and the attached slides.
+
+## 4. Send it
+
+1. List the recipients, `to`, `cc` and `bcc`, and get the user's go for this exact list.
+2. Call `sendReportEmail`. It sends the report as it is now, so refresh it first with the `rollstack-refresh-and-schedule` skill if the user wants fresh numbers.
+
+It answers 400 when the report has no recipients. The send runs in the background: while one is going, another call starts nothing.
+
+## 5. Email it on every scheduled update
+
+`trigger` decides which runs send the email:
+
+- `all` (the default) or `scheduled`: each run started by one of the report's schedules sends it, once every datasheet updated. Set the schedules with the `rollstack-refresh-and-schedule` skill.
+- `none`: only `sendReportEmail` or the app sends it.
+
+Runs started with `startReportRun` or from the app never send it. A scheduled run in which a datasheet failed sends nothing, unless the failure is listed in `ignoredFailureStatusMessages`.
+
+## When the slides agent proposes it
+
+The user can ask the slides agent to change the email or send it. Its reply is a `settings_proposal` or an `email_send_proposal`, which does nothing until approved.
+
+1. Show the user the proposal: the recipients, and what would change.
+2. Call `approveReportMessageProposal` only if they say so, otherwise `rejectReportMessageProposal`.
+3. After approving a send, follow it with `getReportMessage` until its status is `sent`, `partially_sent`, `failed` or `unconfirmed`.
+
+Approving a send answers 409 while the report is still updating, such as after a filter change in the same message. Wait for the update, then approve again.
+
+## Limits
+
+- 5 email sends a minute per user, test sends and approved proposals included. Past it, calls answer 429: wait the seconds in `Retry-After`.
+- Only the report's editors can change or send its email, with the `slide_decks:email` scope. A 403 means the user needs edit access or the token lacks the scope.
