Dropscan MCP Overview
The dropscan-mcp MCP server connects MCP clients to the Dropscan postal-mail-to-email API over stdio. It exposes read-only tools for scanboxes, mailings, recipients, shipments, forwarding addresses, webhook rules, and downloadable PDF, ZIP, envelope, and OCR assets. Optional write tools can request scans, forwarding, or destruction and manage related records, but require both an environment flag and per-call confirmation. Use it when an agent needs to inspect a Dropscan account or perform explicitly authorized mail-management operations.
