Description

This Model Context Protocol server connects Claude Desktop (or any MCP-enabled client) to the Gmail API, providing a rich set of email operations like sending, replying (including reply-all and quoted replies), forwarding, searching, reading content and attachments, and managing drafts and labels. It strives to mimic Gmail behavior closely (threading, categories, correct reply addressing) and adjusts times to the user's configured timezone. The server supports secure attachment saving to a configured folder, multi-account/send-as handling, and comprehensive label and message-state management. Recommended workflows include saving generated messages as drafts for review before sending.
