Google Mail MCP runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. Last commit 10 Oct 2026.
Gmail over MCP from your own account: search, read threads and messages, labels and drafts.

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.
out := Download{MessageID: messageID, Attachment: att, Path: filepath.Join(dir, name), Suffixed: suffixed}

This code can reach further than it looks
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.
