lob-mcp

A Model Context Protocol server that enables LLMs to interact with the Lob.com API for address verification and sending physical mail. It provides 76 tools across 12 resource groups including postcards, letters, checks, and templates with built-in safety features for production use.

Emerging. No concerning findings. Grades remain capped until the project builds reputation through adoption. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

// key findings
No credential exfiltration, no sensitive file access, no obfuscation
Static analysis found nothing flowing your secrets to unexpected places.
Open source with a license and README
Anyone can audit the code, the license is declared, and the publisher documents what it does.
🔐
You'll be asked for 3 credentials: LOB_API_KEY, LOB_LIVE_API_KEY, LOB_TEST_API_KEY
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// environment variables
To run this server yourself, you supply these values. They go in your own MCP client configuration and stay on your machine. The secret label means the value is sensitive, not that the server mishandles it.
🔐 secretLOB_API_KEY
configLOB_API_VERSION_(account default)_ Pin a specific Lob API version via the Lob-Version header (e.g. 2020-02-11).
configLOB_BASE_URL
configLOB_CONFIRMATION_TTL_SECONDS600 How long a preview's confirmation_token stays valid.
🔐 secretLOB_LIVE_API_KEYNo Lob live_… key. Used for live-account work — see Modes below.
configLOB_LIVE_MODEcommit the 6 billable _create (postcards, letters, self-mailers, checks, buckslip/card orders) gate: test unless LOB_LIVE_MODE=true + a live key. In test mode it runs as a $0 test send.
configLOB_MAX_PIECES_PER_RUNExact piece-count cap via . Hard ceiling, not estimate.
configLOB_READS_USE_TESTForce test reads ✅ ✅ any + =true → reads on test regardless.
configLOB_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS
configLOB_REQUIRE_CONFIRMATIONtrue When true, live-mode commits require a confirmation_token from the matching _preview tool. Set to false to skip the gate (loses payload-binding safety).
configLOB_REQUIRE_ELICITATION_FOR_BULK_OVER_PIECES_(unset)_ If set, fires elicitation when a buckslip or card inventory order's quantity exceeds this threshold.
configLOB_REQUIRE_ELICITATION_FOR_CHECKS_OVER_USD_(unset)_ If set, fires an MCP elicitation form when a check amount exceeds this threshold. The form must be confirmed before the send.
🔐 secretLOB_TEST_API_KEYYes Lob test_… key. Used for previews via /resource_proofs and as the fallback for everything when no live key is configured.
// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
