# Nylas MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Nylas and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 209 Nylas actions (90 reads, 79 writes and 40 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Nylas credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Nylas's limits and records every call.

[Connect Nylas free](https://actionlake.com/console?start=sandbox) [See pricing](https://actionlake.com/pricing)

100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

`claude mcp add --transport http actionlake https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp`

the first call

```
do {
  action: "nylas.grants.list",
  intent: "check which Nylas account is connected"
}
# Return all grants · read · 1 upstream call
```

- 209 actions in one signed file
- 90 read look, never change
- 79 write create and update
- 40 wait for a yes destructive, confirmed first

Set up

## Connect Nylas in three steps.

1. 01
   ### Add actionlake to Claude.
   Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.
   `https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp`
2. 02
   ### Connect Nylas.
   Bearer token. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.
   - `api_key` Nylas API key
   - `host` Where your Nylas lives: your host
   ```
   account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "nylas" }
   # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
   ```
3. 03
   ### Make the first call. Check before a write.
   Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, `check` validates the call and prices it, for free.
   ```
   do    { action: "nylas.grants.list" }
   # return all grants · read · 1 upstream call
   check { action: "nylas.events.create", input: { … } }
   # free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent
   ```

Top actions

## The Nylas API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 61 of Nylas's 61 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

| Action | What it does | Effect | Same name in |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `nylas.events.list` Return all events | Return all events. | read | `comm.event.list` 61 connectors |
| `nylas.messages.list` Return all Messages | Return all Messages. | read | `comm.email.list` 28 connectors |
| `nylas.grants.list` Return all grants | Return all grants. | read | `comm.mailbox.list` 18 connectors |
| `nylas.calendars.list` Return all calendars | Return all calendars. | read | `comm.calendar.list` 14 connectors |
| `nylas.contacts.list` Return all contacts | Return all contacts. | read | `crm.contact.list` 177 connectors |
| `nylas.events.create` Create an event | Create an event. | write | `comm.event.create` 52 connectors |
| `nylas.threads.list` Return all threads | Return all threads. | read | `comm.email_thread.list` 7 connectors |
| `nylas.messages.send` Send a Message | Send a Message. | write | `comm.email.send` 32 connectors |

Try it

## Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the Nylas actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

1. Read read
   Find the Nylas contacts with no email address, so we can clean them up.
   calls `nylas.contacts.list`
2. Write write
   Create an event in Nylas. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.
   calls `nylas.events.create`

Governance for Nylas

## Destructive actions wait for a yes.

40 Nylas actions are destructive. The first 10:

- Delete an event `nylas.events.delete`
- Delete a message `nylas.messages.delete`
- Delete a grant `nylas.grants.delete`
- Delete a calendar `nylas.calendars.delete`
- Delete a contact `nylas.contacts.delete`
- Delete a thread `nylas.threads.delete`
- Delete a webhook destination `nylas.webhooks.delete`
- Delete a template `nylas.templates.delete`
- Delete a Folder `nylas.folders.delete`
- Delete a Draft `nylas.drafts.delete`

A destructive action runs only with `confirm: true`. Under the `human` policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

do nylas.events.delete confirm_policy: **human**

Delete an event?

**intent:** the user asked me to delete an event

run suspended · waiting for a named person · key _nylas-agent_ cannot confirm itself

In the console, or from an emailed signed link.

a key for this connector

```
account {
  op: "keys.create", name: "nylas-agent",
  allowed_actions: ["nylas.*"], cap_calls: 2000,
  confirm_policy: "human_for_writes",
  approval_rules: [
    { match: "nylas.events.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" },
    { match: "nylas.messages.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" },
    { match: "nylas.grants.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }
  ]
}
```

Illustrative. Scoped to Nylas only, capped at 2,000 upstream calls, every write confirmed, and the destructive ones approved by a named person.

Cost

## What Nylas costs on actionlake.

Every Nylas action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, `check`, `cost`, `account` and any call Nylas refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

- 1 upstream call per action all 209 Nylas actions
- 209 actions page each page of a long list is one call
- 67 reads can be cached a cache hit costs nothing
- 100,000 calls a month, free paid plans from US$49 a month for 250,000

Questions

## The Nylas MCP server, answered.

**Is there a Nylas MCP server for Claude?**

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 209 Nylas actions across notetakers, standalone notetakers, messages and webhooks, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Nylas.

**What do I need to connect Nylas?**

Nylas API key. Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "nylas" } lists exactly what to paste.

**Can an AI agent delete or change things in Nylas?**

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 40 Nylas actions are destructive, including delete an event, delete a message and delete a grant. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

**Will an AI agent use up my Nylas API limit?**

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Nylas service file: 50 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (67 Nylas actions can be), which never reaches Nylas.

**What does a Nylas action cost?**

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (209 Nylas actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Nylas refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

**Which Nylas API does it cover?**

The Nylas API v3 (OpenAPI 3.1.0, nylas-api.yaml) at your Nylas instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting. It is built from Nylas's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 209 actions in 46 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

**Does actionlake keep my Nylas data, and where?**

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Nylas credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

**Which AI clients can use it?**

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
