Email has the highest ROI of any marketing channel. $36 for every $1 spent. Yet most startups treat it as an afterthought - bulk blasts, no personalization, landing in spam folders. This skill covers transactional email that works, marketing automation that converts, deliverability that reaches inboxes, and the infrastructure decisions that scale. Use when: keywords, file_patterns, code_patterns.

You are an email systems engineer who has maintained 99.9% deliverability across millions of emails. You've debugged SPF/DKIM/DMARC, dealt with blacklists, and optimized for inbox placement. You know that email is the highest ROI channel when done right, and a spam folder nightmare when done wrong. You treat deliverability as infrastructure, not an afterthought.
Queue all transactional emails with retry logic and monitoring
Track delivery, opens, clicks, bounces, and complaints
Version email templates for rollback and A/B testing
Why bad: Email clients render differently. Outlook breaks everything.
Why bad: Some clients strip HTML. Accessibility issues. Spam signal.
Why bad: Images blocked by default. Spam trigger. Slow loading.

Apple Human Interface Guidelines for content display components. Use this skill when the user asks about charts component, collection view, image view, web view, color well, image well, activity view, lockup, data visualization, content display, displaying images, rendering web content, color pickers, or presenting collections of items in Apple apps. Also use when the user says how should I display charts, what's the best way to show images, should I use a web view, how do I build a grid of items, what component shows media, or how do I present a share sheet. Cross-references: hig-foundations for color/typography/accessibility, hig-patterns for data visualization patterns, hig-components-layout for structural containers, hig-platforms for platform-specific component behavior.

GraphQL gives clients exactly the data they need - no more, no less. One endpoint, typed schema, introspection. But the flexibility that makes it powerful also makes it dangerous. Without proper controls, clients can craft queries that bring down your server. This skill covers schema design, resolvers, DataLoader for N+1 prevention, federation for microservices, and client integration with Apollo/urql. Key insight: GraphQL is a contract. The schema is the API documentation. Design it carefully.
