# AgentMail — Agent-Owned Email Inboxes
## Requirements
- **AgentMail API key** (required) — sign up at https://console.agentmail.to (free tier: 3 inboxes, 3,000 emails/month; paid plans from $20/mo)
- Node.js 18+ (for the MCP server)
## When to Use
Use this skill when you need to:
- Give the agent its own dedicated email address
- Send emails autonomously on behalf of the agent
- Receive and read incoming emails
- Manage email threads and conversations
- Sign up for services or authenticate via email
- Communicate with other agents or humans via email
This is NOT for reading the user's personal email (use himalaya or Gmail for that).
AgentMail gives the agent its own identity and inbox.
## Setup
### 1. Get an API Key
- Go to https://console.agentmail.to
- Create an account and generate an API key (starts with `am_`)
### 2. Configure MCP Server
Add to `~/.hermes/config.yaml` (paste your actual key — MCP env vars are not expanded from .env):
```yaml
mcp_servers:
agentmail:
command: "npx"
args: ["-y", "agentmail-mcp"]
env:
AGENTMAIL_API_KEY: "am_your_key_here"
```
### 3. Restart Hermes
```bash
hermes
```
All 11 AgentMail tools are now available automatically.
