AgentMail MCP Server
Connect AgentMail to any MCP-compatible AI client. Three setup options available.
Prerequisites
Get your API key from console.agentmail.to.
Option 1: Remote MCP (Simplest)
No installation required. Connect directly to the hosted MCP server.

"mcpServers": {
"AgentMail": {
"url": "https://mcp.agentmail.to",
"env": {
"AGENTMAIL_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}
Option 2: Local npm Package
Run the MCP server locally via npx.
{
"mcpServers": {
"AgentMail": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "agentmail-mcp"],
"env": {
"AGENTMAIL_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}
Tool Selection
Load only specific tools with the --tools argument:
{
"mcpServers": {
"AgentMail": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"agentmail-mcp",
"--tools",
"send_message,reply_to_message,list_inboxes"
],
"env": {

}
}
}
}
