How It Works

This server wraps the Unipile REST API into MCP tools. Unipile acts as a unified layer over multiple platforms:

Your AI Assistant
      |
      v
  MCP Server (this package)
      |
      v
  Unipile API
      |
      v
  LinkedIn | Gmail | WhatsApp | Instagram | Telegram | Outlook

Each tool maps to one Unipile API endpoint. Authentication is handled via API key. Account-specific operations use either the default account IDs from environment variables or accept explicit account_id parameters.
