postmark-mcp CLAUDE.md

postmark-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from ActiveCampaign/postmark-mcp. It costs 2,030 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project guide for an AI coding assistant working on a Postmark integration. Postmark is an email service, and the guide documents the project, its commands, structure, and available tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start the server, inspect its Model Context Protocol tools, and run read-only or full lifecycle tests for templates, webhooks, suppressions, and email sending.
Why use it?
It gives the assistant the project context needed to work consistently and explains how to run checks and inspect the integration.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

postmark-mcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Project Overview

Official Postmark MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables AI assistants (Claude, Cursor, etc.) to interact with the Postmark email API. Published as @activecampaign/postmark-mcp on NPM.

Commands

  • Run server: npm start (runs node index.js)
  • Debug with MCP Inspector: npm run inspector (launches @modelcontextprotocol/inspector)
  • Smoke test (read-only): npm run smoke — runs smoke-test.mjs, which is created from smoke-test.example.mjs. Spawns the server over stdio and exercises every read-only tool against the live Postmark account configured in .env. Does not send mail or mutate state.
  • Smoke test (mutating): node smoke-test-mutating.mjs — runs full create→edit→delete lifecycles for templates (including layout binding), webhooks, and suppressions, plus real email sends between two configured verified addresses. Cleans up after itself. Created from smoke-test-mutating.example.mjs; edit SENDER and RECIPIENT before running. The script refuses to run with the placeholder values still in place.
  • smoke-test.mjs and smoke-test-mutating.mjs are gitignored. Copy from the *.example.mjs counterparts; this keeps personal verified-sender addresses out of the repo.
  • No linter is configured.

Architecture

This is a single-file MCP server (index.js) using ES modules ("type": "module"). The structure within index.js:

  1. Module-level formatting helpersfmtInt, fmtPct, fmtPlatformUsage, fmtTopBreakdown, fmtDeliverySummary, fmtStatResponse. Used by getDeliveryStats to render polished per-stat output. Keep these pure / dependency-free.
  2. initializeServices() — Validates required env vars, verifies connectivity via a postmarkRequest('/server') call, and instantiates McpServer from @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
  3. registerTools(server) — Registers all 24 MCP tools with Zod schemas for input validation. Each tool wraps a postmarkRequest call and returns formatted text responses
  4. main() — Orchestrates initialization, tool registration, and connects to StdioServerTransport

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
