DragApp — Gmail & Whatsapp For AI Tools (Shared Inbox MCP Server)

DragApp MCP Server

An MCP server for DragApp — AI-powered email & WhatsApp for teams. Read and reply to emails, send WhatsApp messages, search threads, manage boards, and more from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible AI tool.

Setup

Fastest: connect from your AI client (hosted)

Add this URL as a custom connector:

https://app.dragapp.com/mcp

• Claude — Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste the URL
• ChatGPT — Settings → Connectors → Add → paste the URL
• Gemini — add it as a remote MCP server with the same URL

When you connect, a Drag page opens and asks for your API key once (DragApp → Settings → Integrations). The key is verified and handed to your client as its access token; the service stores nothing, and the connect flow never puts your key in a URL. Works in any client that supports remote MCP connectors (OAuth 2.1 + PKCE, dynamic client registration). Nothing to install.

Local (config-file clients: Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code)

1. Get your API key

Go to DragApp → Settings → Integrations → copy your API key.

2. Connect to your AI tool

Claude Desktop — add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dragapp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@dragapp/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "DRAG_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor — add to .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dragapp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@dragapp/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "DRAG_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Works with any MCP-compatible client — ChatGPT, Windsurf, Claude Code, etc.

Secret-scanning pre-commit hook

This is a public repository. Before committing, install the pre-commit hook so gitleaks scans your staged changes for secrets (keys, JWTs, tokens):

pip install pre-commit   # one-time, if you don't have it
pre-commit install       # installs the git hook in this repo

Run it manually against everything at any time:

pre-commit run --all-files

The hook uses .gitleaks.toml. The same scan runs in CI on every push and pull request (.github/workflows/secret-scan.yml), and npm publish runs a tarball guard (scripts/check-tarball.mjs) that blocks the release if the built package contains any known-sensitive term.
