How to install it

It is a remote server: there is nothing to install, your client connects to its URL. Configuration taken from the official MCP registry.

In a terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http inbox-zero https://www.getinboxzero.com/mcp

In ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or .cursor/mcp.json in your project):

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "inbox-zero": {
            "url": "https://www.getinboxzero.com/mcp"
        }
    }
}

If the file already lists other servers, add only this entry inside the list.

In your project's .vscode/mcp.json:

{
    "servers": {
        "inbox-zero": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://www.getinboxzero.com/mcp"
        }
    }
}

If the file already lists other servers, add only this entry inside the list.

Add it in Claude as a custom connector (Customize › Connectors › Add custom connector) with this URL:

https://www.getinboxzero.com/mcp
