Setup
Install Dropscan MCP in your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and others).
Repository: https://github.com/bitterdev/dropscan-mcp
Follow the installation instructions in the repository README, then restart your MCP client.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for theDropscanpostal-mail-to-email API. Dropscan receives your physical letters at a scanbox; this server lets your MCP client list mailings, download the scans (PDF / ZIP / envelope image / OCR text), and, when explicitly enabled, request actions (scan / forward / destroy) and manage recipients, forwarding addresses and webhook rules.
mcp-name: io.github.bitterdev/dropscan-mcp
Every request hits thereal production account. Actions are irreversible: adestroyed letter is physically shredded and gone, aforwardphysically mails the letter and costs money.
Because of that, all write/action tools are gatedtwice:
- DROPSCAN_ALLOW_WRITESenvironment flag. Unless it is set to1/true/yes, every non-GET tool refuses to run. It isdisabled by default.
- confirm: trueparameter. Each write/action tool takes an explicitconfirmargument (defaultfalse) and refuses unless it istrue.
Read-onlyGETtools are always available and never change state.
The download tools save the asset to disk (default~/Downloads, override withsave_pathor theDROPSCAN_DOWNLOAD_DIRenv var) and return the saved path, byte size and content type.
Write / action (double-gated:DROPSCAN_ALLOW_WRITES=1andconfirm=true)
action_typeis one ofscan,forward,destroy(exact enum from the API). Forforward, bothforwarding_address_idandforwarding_date(ISOYYYY-MM-DD) are required.
