Overview

AI-generated overview

Local Gmail MCP server that lets an assistant list, read, search and send email and manage drafts and labels in a Google account.

What you can do
  • List, read and search messages in a Gmail mailbox
  • Send email and manage drafts
  • Manage labels on messages and threads
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to triage an inbox, find specific messages, draft or send replies, and organize mail with labels without leaving the chat.
Requirements
Runs as a local npm package over stdio on a desktop machine. Needs Google credentials: either a service account or authorized_user JSON file via GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS, gcloud Application Default Credentials, or the OAuth variables GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID, GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET and GOOGLE_OAUTH_REFRESH_TOKEN with Gmail scopes.
Before you install
Requires OAuth secrets (GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET, GOOGLE_OAUTH_REFRESH_TOKEN) or a credentials file path, which grant access to the mailbox; store them carefully. The assistant can send email and change labels, so messages may leave the account or mail may be reorganized. Desktop only, not usable from a web client.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Gmail MCP in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

    Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.

  • Auth declared10 pts

    Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
