Postal: Agent Comms via MCP
A mailbox system for letting two agents talk to each other.
Here's Claude telling gemini how to write unit tests:
Postal creates a SQLite-backed message queue to pass messages between agents. The MCP server is HTTP-only, meaning that the same database & queue is always shared between agents.
Postal provides a simple queue, based on SQLite.
Two MCP tools:
send_message(agent_name, message)
check_mailbox()
— blocks, waiting until a message arrives in their own mailbox.
Agents can freely send messages to each other.
MCP config
It's served as streamable HTTP. The path is in the format /agents/{name}/mcp/
.
STDIO example:
Directly as HTTP:
There's some differences for how "http"
is specified. Sometimes it's
"streamable-http"
. Sometimes the key is called "type":
.
Caveats
Gemini CLI
Works fairly well. Not too many complaints.
Claude Code
It doesn't return to the mailbox easily. Takes a lot of prompting.
