About
The Gmail MCP Server is the official Google Workspace Model Context Protocol integration, giving AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf direct access to your Gmail account. Built and maintained by the Google Workspace team, the server exposes Gmail as callable MCP tools: search the inbox with Gmail query syntax (from:, subject:, has:attachment, after:), read full email threads including message bodies and metadata, send new messages or reply-to threads, create draft emails for review, manage labels (apply, remove, list), and mark messages read or unread. This makes the Gmail MCP server essential for productivity workflows like "summarize today's unread emails from my team," "find every invoice email from Stripe last quarter," "draft a reply to this thread and label it Follow-Up," or "list all emails with attachments from this client." Authentication requires a Google Cloud project with the Gmail API enabled and OAuth 2.0 credentials configured — download credentials.json from the Google Cloud Console and follow the server's auth setup to generate an access token. Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and Windsurf. With 1,200+ GitHub stars, it is the most popular official Google productivity integration in the MCP ecosystem.

Notion MCP Server
The Notion MCP Server is the official integration from Notion that connects AI assistants directly to your Notion workspace via the Notion REST API. With 3,500+ GitHub stars, it is the canonical MCP tool for bringing Notion's knowledge management capabilities into Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client. The server exposes a rich set of tools: search your entire workspace by keyword and return matching pages and databases; retrieve full page content and block trees; create new pages inside any parent page or workspace section; update, append, or delete block content on existing pages; list all databases your integration has access to; query database entries with filter and sort parameters; retrieve individual blocks or nested children by block ID; and add comments to pages. Authentication uses a Notion integration token — create an internal integration at notion.so/my-integrations, share specific pages or databases with it, and set NOTION_API_KEY in your environment. Install with a single npx command. The Notion MCP Server is especially powerful for AI workflows that span documentation retrieval, project planning, and knowledge capture — Claude can read product specs from Notion, draft new pages from conversation output, log structured data into databases, and search across thousands of notes without any manual copy-paste.
Linear MCP Server
The Linear MCP server connects your AI assistant directly to Linear's project management platform via an officially hosted remote endpoint at mcp.linear.app — no local installation required. This is Linear's own first-party server, authenticated with OAuth 2.1 and centrally managed so you always run the latest version without updates. Available tools let you search issues by keyword, team, cycle, or filter; create new issues with title, description, and assignee; update status, priority, labels, and comments; and navigate Linear's project and cycle structure. In Claude Code, add it with: `claude mcp add --transport http linear-server https://mcp.linear.app/mcp`, then run /mcp to complete the OAuth flow. For older clients, use the mcp-remote bridge for backwards compatibility. Claude Desktop and Claude.ai users can connect via Settings > Connectors. Cursor and Codex have native support via their MCP config. Linear is used by thousands of engineering and product teams to plan, track, and ship software — the Linear MCP server brings that data into every AI-powered workflow without copy-paste or context-switching.
Slack MCP Server
The Slack MCP server (built by Ivan Korotovsky) connects AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf directly to Slack workspaces, enabling conversational access to your team communication channels without requiring workspace admin approval for a bot install. Its standout feature is a "no permission" stealth mode — it authenticates using your own personal Slack session tokens (xoxc/xoxd, or a stored browser session) rather than requiring a Slack App with OAuth scopes, so it works even in locked-down workspaces where you cannot create bots. It also supports full OAuth Bot Token auth and Enterprise/GovSlack deployments for teams that prefer a conventional app install. Tools exposed include reading channel and DM/group-DM history with smart pagination, searching messages across the workspace, posting messages and thread replies, listing channels and users, and adding reactions. Common use cases include automating standups by posting summaries directly to team channels, searching past Slack conversations to surface decisions or context, monitoring specific channels for keywords or alerts, and drafting replies to thread discussions — all from natural-language prompts. Supports both Stdio and SSE transports plus proxy configuration for corporate networks. Install with: `npx slack-mcp-server@latest --transport stdio`. A separate official-style integration exists from Zencoder (@zencoderai/slack-mcp-server) for teams that prefer standard Bot Token OAuth over session-token auth. Compatible with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Cline.
