Endpoint Security63
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability82
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 14709 tokens (~91/item across 161 items; 161 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
  • Stability check failed: schema churn in the 30 days we've observed: 0 tool removals, 1 breaking changes, 0 auth/transport breaks, 17 additions. See how to fix → Fail
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 99% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety50
  • Injection-marker check failed: the description of tool "get_notification_metrics" contains an instruction to conceal the call from the user, the text "do NOT tell the user", at byte 3262 of that field. See how to fix → Fail
  • All 25 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 161 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
Install

How do I install the Courier MCP server?

Courier is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.courier.com/, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

locale_idstringyesLocale identifier (e.g. es, fr, pt-BR)
notification_idstringyesThe notification template ID (nt_ prefix). Copy it exactly, character for character, from the response that returned it — never retype it from memory or reconstruct it.

NameTypeReqDescription
schedule_idstringyesThe digest schedule id, in the form "sch/{uuid}"

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

release_user_digest ~139

Release one recipient's held digest for a topic now, instead of waiting for its schedule. Use it to preview a digest, or to let a user flush their own, without releasing everyone else on the schedule. There is no release-everyone form of this call; use release_digest with a schedule id for that.

NameTypeReqDescription
section_idstringyesId of the preference section the topic belongs to
tenant_idstringThe recipient's tenant, when they were sent to as part of one
topic_idstringyesId of the digest topic

NameTypeReqDescription
broadcast_idstringyesThe broadcast id
namestringyesThe new name

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

replace_journey ~725

Replace (update) a journey draft. Full document replacement — include all nodes and properties in the body, the trigger included; anything omitted is deleted. The journey stays a draft; making the change live is a separate step this tool cannot perform. This is where send, delay, branch and exit nodes are added, and send node template IDs must already be scoped to this journey. The result carries a "verification" object read back from the server after the write — check it every time. verified:true means what you asked for is what saved. verified:false names what did not: "fieldMismatches" for node fields that failed to land, "nodeCountMismatch" for a node dropped or added, and "unknownTemplateReferences" for a send node pointing at a template id this journey does not have — almost always a mistyped id, so re-copy it from the create_journey_template or get_journey response it came from. Fix the specific thing named and send the corrected document. Re-sending an identical call changes nothing, and every replace_journey overwrites the whole draft again. An "errorKind" of "unauthorized" means the write itself succeeded and only the read-back was refused: report that as unconfirmed, never as a failed write.
