Provides tools for composing Gmail drafts, allowing users to create email drafts with optional recipient and plain-text body that the owner reviews and sends manually.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@gmail-mcp-server Draft an email to myself about the Q3 budget review"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Standalone Gmail MCP Server — draft-only. Lane never sends; the single tool creates a Gmail draft the owner reviews and sends themselves.
