Install JMAP Email in Continue

What you need first

• Continue, 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. Open ~/.continue/config.yaml. On Windows it is %USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.yaml.
2. Add this entry. If the file already has mcpServers, add only the item from - name on.

mcpServers:
  - name: "jmap-mcp"
    type: stdio
    command: "docker"
    args:
      - "run"
      - "-i"
      - "--rm"
      - "-e"
      - "JMAP_SESSION_URL"
      - "-e"
      - "JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN"
      - "ghcr.io/mikluko/jmap-mcp:0.10.0"
    env:
      "JMAP_SESSION_URL": "YOUR_JMAP_SESSION_URL"
      "JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN": "YOUR_JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN"

3. Replace YOUR_JMAP_SESSION_URL,YOUR_JMAP_AUTH_TOKEN with your own values.
4. Save the file and restart Continue.

Check it worked

Ask Continue: List the tools of jmap-mcp.

If it does not start

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon

Docker is not running. Start it, then restart Continue.

The server starts, but its tools fail

A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.

Nothing changes after a restart

The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
