This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

Put your own value in place of <SENDGRID_API_KEY> (Your SendGrid API key (must start with 'SG.')). The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: READ_ONLY (When true (the default), blocks all write/delete operations at runtime while keeping every tool registered and visible).

SendGrid MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for SendGrid MCP Server?
SendGrid MCP Server runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package sendgrid-mcp was installed 212 times last week.
How do I connect SendGrid MCP Server?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls sendgrid-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use SendGrid MCP Server?
The npm package sendgrid-mcp was installed 212 times in the last week. Week over week that is +127%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is SendGrid MCP Server open source?
Yes — it is published under the ISC licence, written in TypeScript and 4 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
