Headless Gmail
Createdbaryhuang
Enables programmatic Gmail access for sending and receiving emails without local credential or token setup.
About
This tool provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with Gmail in a headless environment. Unlike traditional Gmail solutions, it allows for remote operation without requiring local file access or browser interaction. Client applications can independently handle OAuth authentication and then pass credentials to the server as context. It is designed for containerization with Docker, offering a decoupled architecture and reliable dependencies on the google-api-python-client library, making it ideal for marketing applications and other scenarios needing focused Gmail functionality.
