FAQPage Schema
How do I set up Gmail read and send capabilities in Claude Code?

Install the Gmail MCP server to enable Gmail read and send operations. The Skill merges Gmail configuration into .mcp.json and wires the MCP server to run Node.js, requiring Gmail OAuth credentials and the ONEDRIVE_MCP_PATH environment variable.

What are the prerequisites for installing the Gmail MCP server?

You need Node.js installed, valid Gmail OAuth credentials, and the ONEDRIVE_MCP_PATH environment variable set. The Skill configures mcpServers.gmail to execute dist/index.js from the Gmail-MCP-Server directory.

Can I use the Gmail MCP server with an existing .mcp.json configuration?

Yes. The Skill merges the Gmail entry into your current .mcp.json file rather than replacing it, preserving existing MCP server configurations while adding Gmail read and send capabilities.

What does the Gmail MCP server do after installation?

The Gmail MCP server enables Claude workflows to read emails and send messages through Gmail. It runs as a Node.js process configured in .mcp.json, providing email operations directly within your project.

Do I need to manually configure the MCP server entry after installation?

No. The Skill automatically configures the mcpServers.gmail entry with the correct Node command and path to dist/index.js, so the server runs without additional setup.
