Setup

Connect it with one command

1

Get your API key

Copy it from app.dragapp.com → Settings → Integrations.

2

Add the server

Run the command below in your terminal, with your API key in place of your-api-key.

3

Start working

Start Claude Code and ask about your inbox. It asks before it runs each tool, unless you have allowed that tool.

claude mcp add dragapp -e DRAG_API_KEY="your-api-key" -- npx -y @dragapp/mcp-server

Why this combination

Why Claude Code + Drag

Claude Code is for people who think in terminals. If your day runs on git, npm and ssh, adding the shared inbox means email never pulls you into a browser.

The terminal also opens up automation: run a morning triage, a daily report or a check for urgent threads from a script, with no browser open.

This is a power-user workflow. Most teams won’t need it; the ones that live in the terminal will use it every day.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add Drag to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add dragapp -e DRAG_API_KEY="your-api-key" -- npx -y @dragapp/mcp-server in your terminal, then start Claude Code. Drag’s 47 tools are then available in your sessions.

Do I need a Drag account?

Yes. The connector works on your team’s Drag boards, so you need a Drag account and an API key. Drag starts with a 7-day free trial, no card needed.

Will Claude Code send email without asking?

No. Claude Code asks before it runs a tool, including Drag’s send tools, unless you have allowed that tool. Every action shows up in Drag under your name.

Can I use Drag in the Claude app too?

Yes. In Claude, add the same server as a custom connector by URL, https://app.dragapp.com/mcp, with no config file.
