MCP (Message Control Program) Servers
LocalAbout MCP (Message Control Program) Servers
A collection of MCP servers for GitHub and Gmail, intended for use with Cursor IDE. It groups repository operations and email access in separate Python servers configured through symbolic links.
Key features
- 01GitHub repository management
- 02SSH key authentication
- 03Gmail reading and sending
- 04Gmail search
- 05OAuth 2.0 authentication
Use cases
- 01Create, delete, or list GitHub repositories
- 02Read and send Gmail messages
- 03Search Gmail
MCP support
Provides MCP interfaces for GitHub and Gmail services. The servers are linked into the Cursor IDE server configuration.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEMCP (Message Control Program) Servers
This repository contains a collection of MCP servers that provide interfaces to various services and APIs. Each server is designed to be used with Cursor IDE through symbolic links.

Servers
GitHub Server
- Manages GitHub repositories
- Handles SSH key authentication
- Supports repository creation, deletion, and listing
- Uses GitHub API tokens for enhanced functionality
Gmail Server
- Interfaces with Gmail API
- Supports reading and sending emails
- Uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication
- Provides search functionality
Setup
Each server is symbolically linked to the Cursor IDE configuration directory:
~/.cursor/servers/github -> ~/mcp/github
~/.cursor/servers/gmail -> ~/mcp/gmail
Development
- All Python development follows the guidelines in
AI_README.md - Uses
uvfor Python package management - Each server maintains its own virtual environment and dependencies
Security
- API tokens and credentials are stored securely
- OAuth 2.0 tokens are used where applicable
- Sensitive data is never committed to version control
Contributing
When adding a new MCP server:
- Create a new directory in
~/mcp - Follow the Python project structure from
AI_README.md - Create a symbolic link in
~/.cursor/servers - Update this README with server details

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
