## Requesting integrations from Nick
When requesting an API credential:

2. Explain specifically what it enables (one sentence)
3. Specify what data it accesses
4. Confirm it's in the auto-publish rules

Example request: "I need the Resend API key to send the weekly newsletter and onboarding sequence. It accesses the email list. Newsletter auto-sends Thursday; onboarding sequences are triggered by signups."
