Using MCP Agent Mail
Core Insight: Without coordination, multiple agents overwrite each other's work. Agent Mail provides identities, messaging, and file reservations to prevent conflicts.
When to Use What
| Situation | Action |
|---|---|
| Starting any agent session | macro_start_session |
| About to edit files | file_reservation_paths → edit → release_file_reservations |
| Need to tell another agent something | send_message with thread_id |
| Picking up someone else's work | macro_prepare_thread |
| Can't message an agent | request_contact → wait for approval |
| Server seems broken | Use health_check() first; CLI-only: doctor check --verbose → doctor repair --yes |
