Official MCP Connector for Missive (Read & Write Access for AI Agents)
Alex Leever
Please build an official MCP (Model Context Protocol) connector for Missive so that external AI agents and tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc.) can interact with Missive data in a secure, structured way.
What we're asking for:
An official, supported MCP server that exposes Missive resources — conversations, messages, contacts, labels, assignments, and drafts — to any MCP-compatible AI client.
Why this matters:
MCP is quickly becoming the standard protocol for connecting AI assistants to external tools and data sources. Without an official Missive MCP connector, users are forced to build their own unofficial integrations (some community members have already done this), which are unsupported, fragile, and lack proper auth scoping.
With an official MCP connector, Missive users could:
- Ask an AI agent to summarize open conversations or flag urgent threads
- Create and send draft replies via an AI agent that has context from multiple tools (CRM, calendar, notes, etc.)
- Build automations that read Missive data alongside other MCP sources (e.g., Pipedrive, Notion, meeting transcripts)
- Use Missive as a full participant in multi-agent workflows
Suggested capabilities (read + write):
- Read: list/search conversations, fetch message threads, get contact details, retrieve labels and assignments
- Write: create drafts, send messages, apply labels, assign conversations, update contact fields
Why now:
MCP adoption is accelerating rapidly across AI clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.). Teams that rely on Missive as their communication hub deserve a first-class integration, rather than having to work around the gap with screenshots or DIY solutions.
This would be one of the highest-leverage integrations Missive could ship — it opens Missive up to the entire AI agent ecosystem at once.
