Steve Yegge 9351044539 feat(agent-mail): Add Python adapter library for Agent Mail integration
- Created lib/beads_mail_adapter.py with AgentMailAdapter class
- Automatic health check on initialization
- Graceful degradation when server unavailable
- Methods: reserve_issue(), release_issue(), notify(), check_inbox()
- Environment-based configuration (AGENT_MAIL_URL, AGENT_MAIL_TOKEN)
- Comprehensive unit tests (15 tests, 100% passing)
- Full documentation in lib/README.md

Closes bd-m9th

MCP Agent Mail Integration - Current Status

Proof of Concept COMPLETE

Epic: bd-spmx (Investigation & Proof of Concept) - CLOSED

Completed Validation

  • bd-muls: Server installed and tested (~/src/mcp_agent_mail)
  • bd-27xm: MCP API tool execution issues resolved
  • bd-6hji: File reservation collision prevention validated
    • Two agents (BrownBear, ChartreuseHill) tested
    • First agent gets reservation, second gets conflict
    • Collision prevention works as expected
  • bd-htfk: Latency benchmarking completed
    • Agent Mail: <100ms (HTTP API round-trip)
    • Git sync: 2000-5000ms (full cycle)
    • 20-50x latency reduction confirmed
  • bd-pmuu: Architecture Decision Record created

Validated Benefits

  1. Collision Prevention: Exclusive file reservations prevent duplicate work
  2. Low Latency: <100ms vs 2000-5000ms (20-50x improvement)
  3. Lightweight: <50MB memory, simple HTTP API
  4. Optional: Git-only mode remains fully supported

Next Phase: Integration (bd-wfmw)

Ready to proceed with integration layer implementation:

  • HTTP client wrapper for Agent Mail API
  • Reservation checks in bd update/ready
  • Graceful fallback when server unavailable
  • Environment-based configuration

Quick Start Commands

# Start Agent Mail server (optional)
cd ~/src/mcp_agent_mail
source .venv/bin/activate
uv run python -m mcp_agent_mail.cli serve-http

# Access web UI
open http://127.0.0.1:8765/mail

# Stop server
pkill -f "mcp_agent_mail.cli"
