Nylas CLI lets you read, send, and manage email, calendar events, and contacts straight from your terminal — across Gmail, Microsoft 365, Exchange, Yahoo, iCloud, and any IMAP server. It ships with a built-in MCP server so AI agents like Claude and Cursor can tap your inbox and calendar with one command, no API keys or middleware required. The tool is free and open-source, with 72+ scripting commands and GPG encryption that keeps all credentials on your own machine.
A STOA consultant can help you evaluate these tools based on your specific business needs and walk you through implementation.

The built-in MCP server is a real differentiator. The tradeoff: it's a developer tool through and through, so anyone without terminal comfort will hit a wall quickly.
