Slashy MCP lets your favorite AI tools - Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Codex - use Slashy’s email, calendar, and research tools directly. This section walks you through the basics before you pick a client to set up.

What does Slashy MCP do?

Slashy MCP gives any MCP-compatible AI assistant access to Slashy’s toolset:
  • Email automation - draft, send, reply, schedule, label, and attach files through your Slashy account
  • Calendar automation - create events, check availability, propose meeting times
  • Contact research - enrich leads with LinkedIn, company data, and news
  • Meeting prep - pull attendee profiles and email history
  • Reminders + triggers - create scheduled workflows from chat
See Using Slashy MCP for ready-made example prompts covering each of these.

Why use it?

  • Work where you already work. Trigger Slashy actions from Claude, Cursor, or Codex without switching apps.
  • One login. OAuth 2.1 with PKCE - no API keys to copy, rotate, or leak.
  • Always current. Tools update automatically on Slashy’s side; your client picks them up.

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have:
  • A Slashy account signed in with Google. Sign up at slashy.com if you haven’t.
  • One of the supported clients installed:
    • Claude Code
    • Claude Desktop
    • Cursor
    • Codex CLI
  • A browser available on the same machine (OAuth opens a login window).
Slashy MCP uses OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. You log in through your browser once - no manual tokens, no config files with secrets.
