CLAUDE.md

outlook-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from mpalermiti/outlook-mcp. It costs 3,234 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

An MCP server connects coding assistants to personal Microsoft Outlook accounts through Microsoft Graph, Microsoft's service for accessing Outlook data.

In plain words
What is it for?
It supports local development, testing, formatting, authentication, input validation, pagination, and server startup for an Outlook integration.
Why use it?
It gives an MCP-compatible assistant a defined way to work with Outlook without building the connection from scratch.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions Claude Code; built for openclaw.

This is mpalermiti/outlook-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on outlook-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything outlook-mcp configures →

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

outlook-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 yesterday.

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.

Outlook MCP Server

What This Is

MCP server for Microsoft Outlook personal accounts (Outlook.com/Hotmail) via Microsoft Graph API. Works with any MCP client (OpenClaw, Claude Code, Cursor).

Tech Stack

  • Python 3.10+, MCP Python SDK 2.x (MCPServer), msgraph-sdk, azure-identity, Pydantic v2
  • uvicorn for the opt-in HTTP transport; the optional documents extra adds pypdf, openpyxl, psutil and defusedxml for outlook_read_attachment
  • Package manager: uv
  • Testing: pytest + pytest-asyncio

Commands

  • uv run pytest — run tests (offline unit suite; integration/live/live_write markers are deselected by default). The PDF/XLSX parser tests skip unless uv sync --all-extras installed the documents extra
  • OUTLOOK_MCP_TOOLSETS="$(uv run python -c 'from outlook_mcp import toolsets; print(",".join(sorted(set(toolsets.TOOL_GROUPS.values()))))')" uv run pytest -q — the same suite with every toolset loaded, the opt-in groups included, as CI also runs it
  • uv run pytest -m live -v — live query-shape guards; run before tagging if you changed any $filter/$orderby/$search construction (see RELEASING.md 1b)
  • uv run pytest -m integration -v — live response-shape smoke tests
  • uv run ruff check src/ tests/ scripts/ — lint
  • uv run ruff format src/ tests/ scripts/ — format (CI runs ruff format --check on the same paths and fails on any file it would change)
  • uv run outlook-mcp — start server (stdio; OUTLOOK_MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http serves HTTP instead, see the README)
  • uv run python scripts/preflight.py — pre-release Graph smoke test (must pass before tagging; see RELEASING.md)

Releasing

Publishing is automated — do not run uv publish or mcp-publisher by hand. Publishing a GitHub release triggers .github/workflows/publish.yml, which re-checks the version lockstep, runs tests and lint, builds, and publishes to PyPI and the MCP registry via GitHub OIDC (no stored credentials). Full process in RELEASING.md. Still manual by design: the live tier (run it before tagging) and ClawHub.

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.
