SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires agentmail-mcp, mcp.

What problem does it solve? Agents often need their own email identity to sign up for services, receive verification codes, or communicate with humans, but accessing a user's personal inbox is inappropriate and insecure. This Skill gives the agent a dedicated email address it fully controls. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Agent-Owned Inboxes: Create real email addresses (e.g. [email protected]) that the agent owns and manages independently. - Full Email Operations: Send, reply, forward, read threads, update labels, and download attachments through 11 MCP tools. - Use Case: Register the agent for an online service using its own inbox, poll for the verification email with list_threads, and read the confirmation code with get_thread to complete signup autonomously. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create an AgentMail inbox called test-agent and send a welcome email to a specified address.

Frequently Asked Questions about agentmail

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I give an AI agent its own email address?▼

Configure the agentmail-mcp server with an AgentMail API key, then call create_inbox with a username. The agent receives a real address like [email protected] and can send and receive email through it.

How to send and receive email with AgentMail MCP tools?▼

Use send_message with inbox_id, to, subject, and text to send email. Poll list_threads to find incoming conversations and get_thread to read messages, then reply_to_message to respond.

Can AgentMail read my personal Gmail inbox?▼

No. AgentMail only manages inboxes created through its own platform under the agentmail.to domain. For reading personal email accounts, use a separate tool such as himalaya or a Gmail integration.

What are the limitations of the AgentMail free tier?▼

The free tier allows 3 inboxes and 3,000 emails per month, with addresses on the @agentmail.to domain. Custom domains and higher limits require paid plans starting at $20 per month.

Why is the AgentMail MCP server not starting?▼

The server requires Node.js 18 or later and a valid API key pasted directly into the config file, since MCP environment variables are not expanded from .env. Also ensure the Python mcp package is installed.
