MCP server for Microsoft Outlook personal accounts (Outlook.com, Hotmail, Live). Provides AI agents with full access to mail, calendar, contacts, and tasks via Microsoft Graph API.

Independent open-source project. Not affiliated with Microsoft.

Important

• Personal Microsoft accounts only (@outlook.com, @hotmail.com, @live.com). Work/school accounts (Entra ID) are not supported in v1.
• Requires Azure AD app registration — free, takes ~5 minutes, but you need a free Azure account first. See README.
• Auth is CLI-based — run outlook-mcp auth on the host before the agent can use it. No interactive auth through MCP tools.

Setup

1. Create a free Azure account at azure.microsoft.com/free (sign up with your @outlook.com address)
2. Register an Azure AD app (see README for step-by-step)
3. Configure: Create ~/.outlook-mcp/config.json:

   {
     "client_id": "YOUR-APP-CLIENT-ID",
     "tenant_id": "consumers",
     "timezone": "America/Los_Angeles",
     "read_only": true
   }
   

4. Register with OpenClaw (writes to mcp.servers in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json):

   openclaw mcp set outlook '{"command":"uv","args":["--directory","/path/to/outlook-mcp","run","outlook-mcp"]}'
   openclaw mcp list   # verify
   

5. Authenticate on the host:

   cd /path/to/outlook-mcp && uv run outlook-mcp auth
   

6. Restart the gateway: openclaw gateway restart

• Start with read_only: true, flip when comfortable
• Granular permissions: For finer control, set allow_categories in config (e.g., ["calendar_write"] to allow only calendar writes). See README for the 7 categories and example policies.
