This Outlook MCP Server provides a unified way to access and control Outlook email and calendar from an MCP client. It runs locally on Windows via COM and PowerShell, enabling fast setup and secure, centralized automation for common Outlook tasks.

How to use

You use a compatible MCP client to communicate with the Outlook MCP Server. The server exposes functions to manage email and calendar, such as listing emails, reading message details, drafting responses, creating or updating calendar events, and finding free time slots. Connect your client to the local MCP endpoint, then call the available functions by name as actions in your automation scripts.
