Safety check

  • Pass

    Publisher verified

    Claude directory lists it as Made by Postman, Inc. and Anthropic verified; the endpoint is on postman.com and the repo README links Postman's own docs. GitHub org postmanlabs is named Postman Inc. (not GitHub-verified).

  • Pass

    Auth model

    Remote server uses OAuth per the MCP authorization spec. The EU remote server and the local server use a Postman API key instead.

  • Flag

    Write and delete access

    Even the default Minimal set includes deleteCollection, deleteFolder, deleteRequest and similar tools. README documents Minimal, Code, Full and Learn tool sets but no read-only mode.

  • Pass

    Tool-description injection scan

    Keyword-scanned src/ in postmanlabs/postman-mcp-server for AI-directed override or concealment text; none found. Hosted tool descriptions were not separately read.

  • Pass

    Repo maintenance

    postmanlabs/postman-mcp-server pushed 2026-10-16, 324 stars, Apache-2.0, not archived. README says src/ is synced from Postman's internal source.

FAQ

Does Postman have an official MCP server?

Yes. Postman hosts it at https://mcp.postman.com and publishes the code in the postmanlabs GitHub org.

Is Postman a Claude connector?

Yes. The Claude directory lists Postman as Anthropic verified, added March 2026, with 42 tools.

What is the difference between Minimal, Code and Full?

Minimal is the default essential set, Code generates client code from API definitions, and Full exposes 100+ Postman API tools. A Learn mode searches Postman docs.

Can I make it read-only?

No read-only mode is documented. Minimal mode still includes delete tools, so review tool calls before approving them.

Does it work in the EU?

Yes, at mcp.eu.postman.com, but only with an API key. OAuth is not supported there.
