senderkit templates lists the templates in your workspace and prints the detail of a single one. It’s the CLI’s window into the dashboard — useful for confirming a slug exists before you wire up a send, or for scripting reports against your template catalogue.
Templates are managed in the SenderKit dashboard — copy edits, version publishes, and channel changes all happen there. The CLI is read-only on templates; there is no pull, push, or create command, because templates aren’t files on disk. To create or regenerate templates programmatically, use the MCP tools senderkit_templates_create and senderkit_templates_regenerate (AI-assisted, saves as a draft for review), or the REST API for direct writes.

​
senderkit templates list

List every template in the workspace. No arguments, no flags. 
senderkit templates list
Output is a table of slug, channel, status, and last-update timestamp: 
SLUG               CHANNEL  STATUS   UPDATED
welcome            email    active   2026-05-12T09:14:02Z
password-reset     email    active   2026-04-30T16:22:11Z
verification-code  sms      draft    2026-05-27T11:08:50Z
For scripting, --json returns the full template objects: 
senderkit templates list --json | jq -r '.[] | select(.status=="draft") | .slug'

​
senderkit templates get

Fetch a single template by slug. Useful for confirming the published version, its channel, or its description. 
senderkit templates get <slug>

​
Arguments

​
slug
required
Template slug, e.g. "welcome".

​
Examples

senderkit templates get welcome
Human output: 
slug:        welcome
channel:     email
status:      active
description: Onboarding email sent on signup
version:     7
updatedAt:   2026-05-12T09:14:02Z
With --json, you get the full template payload — slug, channel, status, current version detail, timestamps, and more — matching the GET /v1/templates/:slug response. A template that doesn’t exist returns 404 and exits non-zero, so you can use get as a precondition check in scripts: 
senderkit templates get welcome --json >/dev/null && \
  senderkit send welcome user@example.com

Templates

The dashboard-editable definitions the CLI is reading.
