130-135: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winAdd explicit return types to the public methods.
Annotate both methods with
Promise<Email>. This keeps the public API contract explicit and prevents future implementation changes from silently widening the inferred return type.As per coding guidelines, public TypeScript APIs require explicit return types. Based on learnings, this repository also enforces explicit return types for exported and public functions.
Also applies to: 149-155

62-97: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winAdd negative-path coverage for the new inputs.
The added tests cover only successful idempotency-key transmission and successful retrieval. Add tests for invalid key characters and length, and for an invalid
emailIdthat confirmsrequireIdrejects before an HTTP request.As per coding guidelines, unit tests for new functionality must verify error handling and edge cases.

constructing headerParams or sending the request: allow it only when absent or
matching the documented ASCII-only character set and maximum length of 255
characters, and reject invalid non-empty values with a clear validation error.

methods, documenting every parameter including create’s options, return values,
validation errors thrown, and a representative usage example using `@param`,
`@returns`, `@throws`, and `@example` tags.
- Around line 131-142: Update EmailApi.create to detect a provided
idempotencyKey using an undefined check, so an empty string is validated and
rejected before request construction; keep header inclusion aligned with the
same presence semantics. In packages/backend/src/api/__tests__/EmailApi.test.ts
lines 86-110, add the empty-key case and assert no request is sent.

Description
Roadmap needs a typed JavaScript client for Clerk's flag-gated transactional-email service. This extends the experimental
emailssurface with the contract needed by an internal consumer while leaving policy, persistence, provider routing, retries, and delivery observability in Clerk's backend.emails.create(params, options)accepts an optional idempotency key, validates Clerk's shared key grammar, and sends the value only in theIdempotency-Keyheader.emails.get(emailId)returns Clerk's stored provider-handoff state, includingsuppressionReasonwhen Clerk declines delivery.The backend must be deployed and the target instance explicitly enabled before adoption. Consumers should pin the SDK version. An
acceptedstatus means the configured provider accepted the request; final delivery, deferral, bounce, and complaint outcomes remain in Clerk Email Logs.This PR does not implement any Roadmap application code. Companion changes: backend service and internal usage guide and Go SDK client.
