Connect Superhuman Mail to Claude Code

Give Claude Code governed access to Superhuman Mail’s 33 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Superhuman Mail to Claude Code in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Claude Code then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Superhuman Mail in Runlayer

    Add Superhuman Mail from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect Claude Code to Runlayer

    Runlayer’s CLI installs the Runlayer Plugin natively in Claude Code, and an Anthropic org install also reaches Claude Code. With direct tool listing turned on for your deployment, Superhuman Mail’s 33 tools show up in Claude Code’s own tool list (supported Claude Code versions).

  3. 3

    Sign in to Superhuman Mail

    Sign in the way Superhuman Mail requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Superhuman Mail from Claude Code

    Superhuman Mail’s approved tools appear in Claude Code. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Tools

33 Superhuman Mail tools in Claude Code

Runlayer policy decides which of these Claude Code users can call.

  • Add account

    Start linking an additional Superhuman Mail account to this session so it can be acted on alongside the current account.

  • Create or update draft

    Compose an email on behalf of the user.

  • Create or update event

    Create a new calendar event or edit an existing one.

  • Create or update reminder

    Create or reschedule a reminder on a Superhuman Mail thread.

  • Create or update snippet

    Save a reusable Superhuman Mail snippet (an email template).

  • Discard draft

    Discard a user-owned Superhuman Mail draft by draft_id so it disappears from the user's Drafts list.

  • Discard reminder

    Discard (cancel) a reminder on a Superhuman Mail thread so it no longer brings the thread back to the top of the inbox.

  • Discard snippet

    Remove a saved Superhuman Mail snippet, identified by the id from list_snippets.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in Claude Code

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Claude Code exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Superhuman Mail call from Claude Code passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, Claude Code as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Client hooks (available)

    Capture supported prompts, reasoning, local and MCP tool calls, responses, and scanner decisions in real time.

  • Anthropic inference hooks (available)

    With Claude Enterprise, Anthropic sends each governed Claude Code prompt to Runlayer before inference, with nothing installed on devices (Anthropic beta).

  • OTLP telemetry (available)

    Claude Code can export OpenTelemetry logs to Runlayer for observe-only session reconstruction.

  • Stop a call before it runs (available)

    Runlayer can deny a tool call before Claude Code runs it.

  • Block output after it runs (available)

    Runlayer can block a tool’s output before Claude Code’s model sees it.

  • Redact output in place (available)

    Runlayer can mask sensitive parts of a tool’s output in Claude Code and pass the rest through.

In Claude Code

  • When a tool fails, Runlayer records the error but cannot hide it.
