What is trycourier/courier-skills?
Courier Notification Skills is an open-source agent skill that supplies markdown-based guidance for building notification systems. It organizes content into channels, transactional templates, growth campaigns, and cross-cutting operational guides.
The skill works by providing ready-to-reference documentation and examples that AI coding tools can load directly. Agents follow the SKILL.md entry point to route to relevant sections on routing logic, preferences, reliability, and template management.
It targets developers creating SaaS platforms, e-commerce sites, marketplaces, and mobile applications who need to consolidate notification providers or implement preference management and multi-channel delivery.
