What io.github.adamVass/pylos-mcp does
Anyone in the world can put text in your inbox, and the moment an AI assistant reads that inbox, anyone in the world can put text in front of your assistant. pylos-mcp is an email MCP server built around that fact. It lets Claude, or any MCP client, search, read and draft your mail while treating every message as what it really is, input from a stranger. Mailbox content is fenced as data before the model sees it, and there is no bcc field for an injected email to quietly copy someone with.
