Install JMAP Email in Claude Code

What you need first

  • Claude Code, installed.
  • Docker, which gives the docker command the server starts with.
  • Your own values for YOUR_JMAP_SESSION_URL,YOUR_JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN.

Steps

  1. Run this in a terminal, in the project folder. It adds the server for you in that project; put --scope user after claude mcp add to have it in every project.
claude mcp add --env JMAP_SESSION_URL=YOUR_JMAP_SESSION_URL --env JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN=YOUR_JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN --transport stdio jmap-mcp -- docker run -i --rm -e JMAP_SESSION_URL -e JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN ghcr.io/mikluko/jmap-mcp:0.10.0
  1. Replace YOUR_JMAP_SESSION_URL,YOUR_JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN with your own values.
  2. Start Claude Code and type /mcp: the server is listed with its state.

Check it worked

Ask Claude Code: List the tools of jmap-mcp.

If it does not start

The server starts, but its tools fail
A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
