Quick Start

Install the plugin. It brings the signed binary, the /archive-mail command family, the safety rules, and the staleness hook as one unit:

claude plugin marketplace add PsychQuant/che-apple-mail-mcp
claude plugin install che-apple-mail-mcp@che-apple-mail-mcp

Then grant permissions — the setup window shows live status and links straight to the right System Settings pane:

~/bin/CheAppleMailMCP --setup

💡 Full Disk Access is what makes the fast SQLite read path and batch_export_emails_markdown work. Without it the tools still run but read little or nothing, which is easy to mistake for a bug rather than a permission. macOS does not let an app request FDA programmatically — it has to be ticked by hand — which is exactly what the setup window is there to make quick.

Plugin vs MCP-only

Registering the MCP server by itself is a supported advanced path, but it is a strictly smaller install. Choose it knowingly — nothing at runtime will tell you these are missing (#353):

Shipped by the plugin	Present with MCP-only
All 53 MCP tools	✅ yes
`/archive-mail` + `-migrate` / `-rebuild-threads` / `-repair-synthetic-ids` / `-view`	❌ the archiving SOP does not exist
`rules/compose-wrapper-free.md` — what the cite-block was, and what a refused compose call means	⚠️ background: since #304 the wrapper is structurally impossible, so this rule now explains the six refusal reasons and their recipes rather than guarding against a silent fallback
`rules/confirmation-triggers.md`, `rules/false-positive-detection.md`	❌ no confirmation discipline on destructive operations
`hooks/session-start.sh` — staleness kill	❌ a session can keep running a stale binary after an upgrade
Developer ID signed + notarized binary	❌ a self-built binary is ad-hoc signed; on macOS 26 TCC cannot reliably hold FDA/Automation for it, so permissions appear to be granted and then stop working (#211)
Version sidecar → `--self-update` + the #303 staleness self-check	❌ no sidecar next to a hand-built binary, so that check is permanently silent

Advanced: register the MCP server only (development, or you want no plugin)

git clone https://github.com/PsychQuant/che-apple-mail-mcp.git
cd che-apple-mail-mcp
swift build -c release

# --scope user     : available across all projects (stored in ~/.claude.json)
# --transport stdio: local binary execution via stdin/stdout
# --               : separator between claude options and the command
mkdir -p ~/bin
cp .build/release/CheAppleMailMCP ~/bin/
claude mcp ad
