ABOVO MCP Server
Turn any email into a public web page: send it to [email protected]. No login: your email is your login.
US Patent No. 10,404,634 — Abovo42 Corporation — Founder: Sean P. Fenlon
How ABOVO.co works
Send or forward any email to [email protected] and it becomes a permanent public web page. ABOVO emails the sender a confirmation with the page URL and a delete link.
- No login, ever. Your email account is your login. There is no ABOVO account, password, API key, or OAuth.
- Every post needs a verified email sender. Posts without one are not published. The sender's address is part of the public URL.
- Attachments: attach files to the email you send, as in any email app; they appear on the post.
- Delete anytime: every post's confirmation email includes a delete link.
- Groups: send to
{name}@abovo.co. The first email to a new group sends the creator a confirmation; clicking "I accept" activates the group at https://{name}.abovo.co and makes the creator its moderator.
- Posts are public. Don't send anything private.
| URL | What it shows |
|---|
https://www.abovo.co/{sender-email} | All posts by that sender |
https://www.abovo.co/{sender-email}/{post-id} | One post |
https://{groupname}.abovo.co | A group (e.g. jazz.abovo.co) |
https://www.abovo.co/Groups | All groups |
What this MCP server does
It helps an AI assistant use ABOVO correctly. It never sends email and never publishes anything on its own.
prepare_abovo_post (read-only)
Builds a ready-to-send email: to ([email protected], or {group}@abovo.co), subject, body, and a mailto: link. The user sends it from their own email account. To include files, the user attaches them to that email.
| Parameter | Required | Notes |
|---|
subject | yes | Page title; becomes the email subject |
body | yes | Page content (max 50,000 chars) |
format | no | text (default) or html. Mailto links carry plain text only |
group | no | Single DNS label (letters, digits, hyphens; 63 max) |
get_abovo_info (read-only)
Reference text for one topic: capabilities, url_format, groups, use_cases, about.
Connect
Hosted (recommended): no install, no account, no auth.
- Endpoint:
https://mcp.abovo.co/api/mcp
- Transport: Streamable HTTP (stateless)
Add it as a custom connector or remote MCP server in any MCP client that supports remote servers. Example for clients that use a JSON config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"abovo": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.abovo.co/api/mcp" }
}
}
Local stdio bundle (optional, older): .mcpb and .tgz assets on Releases. Version 1.1.1 still includes a publish_to_web tool that sends through your own mailbox's SMTP credentials, which you enter in the installer. Prefer the hosted endpoint above.
Privacy and telemetry
- The hosted server is stateless. It doesn't store subjects, bodies, or email addresses. It records coarse request metadata only (event name, timestamp, version, transport); the hosting provider keeps standard request logs.
- ABOVO.co's privacy policy: https://www.abovo.co/Home/Privacy. Terms: https://www.abovo.co/Home/Terms.
- The local bundle writes coarse telemetry (no content, no addresses) to a JSONL file in the OS temp directory. Set
ABOVO_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1 to turn it off.
