Questions

What is the pylos MCP server?

Email MCP server for Gmail, Outlook and any IMAP mailbox, hardened against prompt injection. It is made by @adamVass and listed in the official MCP Registry as io.github.adamVass/pylos-mcp. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI apps like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor use outside tools.

How do I add pylos to Claude?

In Claude Code, run: claude mcp add pylos-mcp -e EMAIL_USER=… -- npx -y pylos-mcp@1.3.0

How do I add pylos to ChatGPT?

ChatGPT only connects to remote MCP servers, and pylos runs on your own computer. Use it from Claude, Cursor or another app that runs local servers.

How do I add pylos to Cursor?

Open Cursor settings, go to MCP, choose "Add new MCP server" (or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json) and add: { "mcpServers": { "pylos-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "pylos-mcp@1.3.0" ] } } }

Does pylos work right now?

It runs on your own computer, so it works once you install it. There is no remote server for us to check.
