MailSenpai MCP server
Manage MailSenpai email marketing from your AI assistant: lists, subscribers, segments, templates, draft campaigns and campaign stats.
This is the official MCP server of MailSenpai, an email marketing platform made in Italy with servers and data in the EU. It is a hosted, remote MCP server: there is nothing to install or run locally.
About this repository. It contains only documentation and client manifests (the official MCP Registry entry and configuration files for Claude, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other MCP clients). The server source code is not published here. The server runs at the URL below and is operated by MailSenpai.

What you need
- A MailSenpai account with AI access enabled. You can start with a free demo account at www.mailsenpai.com (English: en.mailsenpai.com).
- An MCP client that supports remote servers with OAuth.
On first use, the client opens the MailSenpai sign-in page. Sign in with your MailSenpai email and password, review the requested access, accept the terms and you are sent back to the client. Your password is never shared with the AI client.
What the tools can do
The server exposes 74 tools, each annotated as read-only, write or destructive.
| Area | What the assistant can do | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Account | See permissions, plan limits and visible lists | Read |
| Domain DNS check | Check the SPF, DKIM, DMARC and MX records of any domain, with what to fix and the values to publish (check_domain_dns) | Read |
| Blacklist checks | Check public IPs and domains against email blocklists, with results and official removal links (check_blacklist) | Read |
| Email spam tests | Start a test (start_email_spam_test), then read its state and score (get_email_spam_test_result). Starting creates a test and emails instructions; it does not send the test message for you | Read and write |
| Lists and custom fields | List, view, create, update, copy and delete lists and fields | Read and write |
| Segments | Create segments with conditions, update them and read their subscribers | Read and write |
| Subscribers | Search by email across lists, add, update, confirm, unsubscribe or delete; imports within plan limits | Read and write |
| Email templates | List, search, view, create, update and delete templates | Read and write |
| Campaigns | Create drafts, copy, schedule, pause or cancel | Read and write |
| Reports and bounces | Campaign statistics and recorded bounces | Read |
| Transactional emails | List and view them, and create them when the plan allows it | Read and write |
| Reference data | Countries and zones, field types and segment operators | Read |
Example prompts:
- "List my lists and how many confirmed subscribers they have."
- "Create a draft campaign for the Customers list using the Welcome template."
- "Summarize the statistics of my last five campaigns."
- "Check the SPF, DKIM and DMARC records of example.com and tell me what to fix."
- "Create a segment of subscribers who joined in the last 30 days."
Permissions and confirmations
- The access token only receives the permissions of your MailSenpai plan and role, even if the client asks for more.
- Deleting requires
confirm_delete, sending requiresconfirm_send. Sending, scheduling and deleting are available only if your plan includes them. - Calls are logged and rate-limited. Details: https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/rate-limits and https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/security
Connect it
Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop)

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http mailsenpai https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/mcp
Then run /mcp inside Claude Code and choose Authenticate for mailsenpai.
This repository is also a Claude Code plugin (.claude-plugin/plugin.json + .mcp.json).
ChatGPT
In ChatGPT settings, add a custom connector (app) with the URL https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/mcp and OAuth authentication, then sign in with your MailSenpai account. Depending on your ChatGPT plan, developer mode may be required.
Cursor
One click: Add MailSenpai to Cursor
Or add it to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (one project):
{
"mcpServers": {
"mailsenpai": {
"url": "https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Cursor shows a Needs login button next to the server: click it to sign in.
Cline
Open the MCP Servers panel → Remote Servers, name mailsenpai, URL https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/mcp, transport Streamable HTTP. Or edit cline_mcp_settings.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mailsenpai": {
"type": "streamableHttp",
"url": "https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/mcp"
}
}
}
When Cline asks you to authenticate, sign in with your MailSenpai account.
VS Code (GitHub Copilot)
Add to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"mailsenpai": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Gemini CLI
gemini extensions install https://github.com/mailsenpai/mailsenpai-mcp
Then run /mcp auth mailsenpai to sign in.
Other MCP clients
Add a remote MCP server with the URL https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/mcp. Clients that only support local (stdio) servers can use a bridge such as mcp-remote:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mailsenpai": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/mcp"]
}
}
}
Disconnect
Remove the connector from your AI client's settings. Issued access expires on its own; to revoke it right away, contact support from https://mcp.mailsenpai.com/support.
