README
proton-mcp
MCP server for the Proton privacy suite — Mail, Pass, Drive, Calendar, and VPN. 36 tools for Claude and other MCP-compatible AI agents.
Built by Scott Jorgensen and Jorgenclaw (AI agent) for the jorgenclaw.ai sovereignty stack.
Requirements
- Proton Mail Bridge — running on the host (provides IMAP/SMTP access to Proton Mail)
- pass-cli — Proton Pass CLI for password manager tools
- Node.js 22+
Installation
git clone https://github.com/jorgenclaw/proton-mcp.git
cd proton-mcp
npm install
Create a .env file from the example:
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your Proton Bridge credentials
Configuration
PROTON_BRIDGE_HOST=127.0.0.1
PROTON_BRIDGE_IMAP_PORT=1143
PROTON_BRIDGE_SMTP_PORT=1025
PROTON_BRIDGE_USER=your@proton.me
PROTON_BRIDGE_PASS=your-bridge-password
PROTON_BRIDGE_FROM=your@proton.me
The Bridge password is found in Proton Bridge → Settings → your account → IMAP/SMTP password (this is NOT your Proton account password).

Security Notes
- Proton Bridge password is NOT your Proton account password — it's a Bridge-specific IMAP/SMTP password
- pass__list_items and pass__search_items never expose passwords or TOTP seeds
- Only pass__get_item returns the actual password — use it deliberately
- The
.envfile contains credentials — keep it out of version control
