Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http postfleet 'https://api.postfleet.ai/api/mcp' --header 'Authorization: <Bearer auth with your Postfleet API key.>'
{
"mcpServers": {
"postfleet": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://api.postfleet.ai/api/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "<Bearer auth with your Postfleet API key.>"
}
}

Postfleet MCP
Give an AI agent its own email address. Postfleet is email infrastructure for agents — inbound is parsed, classified, extracted to your schema, and screened for prompt injection before your agent reads a word.
This repo holds the server source and its plugin manifests. It is a mirror — the code is
developed in the Postfleet application repo and published to npm as
@postfleet/mcp; open issues here, send patches
here, and they land upstream. The server ships two ways:
| Hosted (no install) | https://api.postfleet.ai/api/mcp, streamable HTTP, Authorization: Bearer pf_... |
| Local (stdio) | @postfleet/mcp via npx |
Get a pf_ API key at postfleet.ai.
Tools
list_mailboxes, create_mailbox, list_domains, create_domain, verify_domain,
send_email, reply_email, list_inbox, read_email, wait_for_email — plus the draft
lifecycle (create_draft, list_drafts, get_draft, update_draft, send_draft,
delete_draft) for flows where a human approves before mail goes out. A send that lands in
that gate returns 202 pending_approval, which is not a failure.
Every tool is thin-over-REST — it calls the same /api/v1/ endpoints your key already reaches
(OpenAPI), so auth, scoping, and quotas are enforced once.
Install
Cursor marketplace plugin
The manifests in this repo (mcp.json, .cursor-plugin/plugin.json) declare
headers.Authorization = Bearer ${POSTFLEET_API_KEY} for the hosted server and the same
variable for local npx @postfleet/mcp. Installing the plugin should prompt for that key and
attach it as a real Bearer header — a raw URL add without the header will 401 on
initialize until a key is supplied or the hosted connect card finishes OAuth.
Cursor (manual)
{
"mcpServers": {
"postfleet": {
"url": "https://api.postfleet.ai/api/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer pf_your_key_here" }
}
}
}
Local stdio (npx -y @postfleet/mcp)
npx -y @postfleet/mcp
Any MCP client that speaks stdio can run that command with POSTFLEET_API_KEY set:
{
"mcpServers": {
"postfleet": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@postfleet/mcp"],
"env": { "POSTFLEET_API_KEY": "pf_your_key_here" }
}
}
}
Claude Code
claude mcp add postfleet --env POSTFLEET_API_KEY=pf_your_key_here -- npx -y @postfleet/mcp
POSTFLEET_API_URL (default https://api.postfleet.ai) overrides the API origin for staging or
self-hosted deployments.
Keys
Keys are scoped — bootstrap can only create mailboxes, api covers mail operations, mcp is the
one to hand a client. Use a separate key per workload so you can revoke one without breaking the
rest. Never commit a key; the manifests in this repo deliberately contain none.

Frequently asked questions
What is Postfleet?

How do I install Postfleet?
It runs as a remote server. In Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http postfleet 'https://api.postfleet.ai/api/mcp' --header 'Authorization: <Bearer auth with your Postfleet API key.>'. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.
Does Postfleet need an API key?
Yes. It expects POSTFLEET_API_KEY, Authorization, which you set in its configuration.
Is Postfleet open source?
Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.
Who maintains Postfleet?
It is published by Thestral12. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.
From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
