Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Overview

The InboxParse MCP server allows LLMs to interact with your emails securely. Instead of manually copying and pasting email content, your AI agent can search threads, read messages, and summarize conversations in real-time.

Configuration

Add the following configuration to your MCP settings file (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "inboxparse": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@inboxparse/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "INBOXPARSE_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

The server exposes 15 tools covering emails, threads, search, mailboxes, labels, webhooks, and usage. A few highlights:

• search_emails

  Search your inbox with fulltext, semantic, or hybrid search.

• get_thread

  Fetch a complete email conversation as clean Markdown.

• list_mailboxes

  List all connected inboxes in your workspace.

• list_emails

  List recent emails with AI summaries and labels attached.
