Short answer

How can I automate mailbox creation with my AI?

You tell your AI client to create a new account or add an alias, and it executes the command via the Gandi.net MCP. This gives you direct control over your email infrastructure without logging into a web dashboard. You'll see the results of these actions immediately in your chat interface.

Automation outcomes

What you can accomplish

These are the specific results your agent delivers.

PROVISION

New mailboxes ready

The AI spins up fresh email addresses on demand. You get a new inbox without manual configuration.

ALIASING

Manage email aliases

Your agent adds or checks aliases for existing accounts. This keeps your primary addresses clean.

AUDIT

View existing accounts

The AI pulls a list of all current mailboxes and aliases. You can verify your setup or find unused addresses.

HUMAN

Manual oversight

You decide when to trigger a creation or an alias change. The AI won't delete any existing mailboxes on its own.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI translates your intent into specific API calls to Gandi.net.

  1. Inventory check

    The AI first looks at what you already have to avoid duplicates or conflicts.

  2. Account creation

    Once you confirm the details, the AI builds the new mailbox.

    create_mailbox

  3. Alias assignment

    The agent attaches new email aliases to the target mailbox.

    list_aliases

  4. Verification

    The AI checks the updated list to ensure the new mailbox or alias is active.
