Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Give your AI agent an identity it owns: email inbox, US phone number, SMS, voice, and a vault.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

Common questions

Is Anima safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Vexa, emailmd, MCP WhatsApp Cloud

@anima-labs/mcp-server

The hosted MCP server behind https://mcp.useanima.sh — the recommended way to connect AI assistants to Anima. It exposes the full tool surface (66 tools today) over streamable HTTP with Authorization: Bearer .

This package is deliberately not published to npm: it is the deployed gateway. For a local/stdio server use @anima-labs/mcp (published, 53 core tools) — same platform, same auth. Client setup for both lives in the MCP docs, or run anima setup-mcp.

Endpoints

One gateway, scoped mounts. /mcp carries everything; the per-domain mounts serve tailored connections with a smaller tool count:

/mcp — all tools (recommended)
/agent — agent lifecycle (create/get/list/update/delete)
/email — Anima agent mailboxes: inbox create/get/list/update/delete, send/reply/forward, threads, drafts, attachments, custom domains (agents.useanima.sh addresses or your own domain — no Gmail/SMTP relay involved)
/phone — phone number provisioning, SMS threads, voice calls + transcripts/recordings (Telnyx-backed)
/platform — account/usage overviews and webhook management
/vault — encrypted credential vault: CRUD, search, TOTP, server-side use, credential requests, OAuth connections, Connect Links
/extension — browser extension connect (headless / Puppeteer)

Run locally (development)

bun run src/index.ts

Environment: ANIMA_API_URL (defaults to a local dev API at http://127.0.0.1:3100; the production deployment sets it to the live API), MCP_BASE_URL, PORT.

Deploy production (`mcp.useanima.sh`)

Preferred path is GitHub Actions: run Deploy MCP Server (.github/workflows/deploy.yml) via workflow_dispatch.

Required repository secrets (for Workload Identity Federation / OIDC):

GCP_WORKLOAD_IDENTITY_PROVIDER (format: projects/ /locations/global/workloadIdentityPools/ /providers/ )
GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL (deployer service account in anima-labs)

Workflow behavior:

Builds and pushes us-central1-docker.pkg.dev/anima-labs/anima/mcp-server:
Deploys Cloud Run service mcp-server in us-central1
Prints GET /health response so you can confirm startedAt changed

Manual fallback (same image/deploy settings) remains:

./deploy.sh <tag>

History

Replaces five separate packages (mcp-agent, mcp-email, mcp-phone, mcp-platform, mcp-vault) and the mcp-core shared library.
