MCP server

The Cal.com MCP server wraps the Cal.com API v2 in the Model Context Protocol, letting you manage bookings, event types, schedules, and more through natural language in any MCP-compatible client.

Hosted server (mcp.cal.com)

The fastest way to get started is to connect your MCP client directly to mcp.cal.com. The hosted server uses Streamable HTTP transport with OAuth 2.1 authentication — your client handles the authorization flow automatically.

Connect your client

Point your MCP client to the hosted server URL:

https://mcp.cal.com/mcp

When you first connect, your client walks you through an OAuth authorization flow where you grant the server access to your Cal.com account. No API key is needed. Any MCP client can connect: clients register dynamically via POST /oauth/register or identify themselves with a Client ID Metadata Document (an https client_id URL). Before the Cal.com sign-in, you see a consent page naming the client and the host you’ll be sent back to.

The consent screen also asks for team scopes to create, edit and delete team event types and to view and manage team memberships, so your AI client can set up team event types and add people to teams. It also asks for the organization profile scopes, so an organization admin’s AI client can list, create, edit and delete the organization’s teams. Cal.com still checks your role and permissions in the team on every call. It also asks to view, add, rename and remove your personal contacts (CONTACT_READ, CONTACT_WRITE). If you connected before these scopes were added, disconnect and reconnect the server to grant them.

Claude Desktop
Cursor
VS Code
fx
Grok

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "calcom": {
      "url": "https://mcp.cal.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Open Settings → MCP and add a new server with the URL https://mcp.cal.com/mcp, or add it to your .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "calcom": {
      "url": "https://mcp.cal.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add the server to your VS Code MCP settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "calcom": {
      "url": "https://mcp.cal.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add the following to your ~/.fx/mcp.json:

{
  "mcp": {
    "calcom": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.cal.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Then run /mcp auth calcom --open in fx to authorize. See the fx MCP docs for transports, authentication options, and tool discovery.

Self-hosted server (stdio)

If you prefer to run the server locally, you can use stdio transport with an API key. This is useful for development or when you want full control over the server.

Prerequisites

Node.js >= 18
A Cal.com API key — generate one in Settings → Developer → API Keys

Connect your client

Add the following to your MCP client’s configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "calcom": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@calcom/cal-mcp@latest"],
      "env": {
        "CAL_API_KEY": "cal_live_xxxx"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace cal_live_xxxx with your actual API key.

Never share or commit your API key. If exposed, rotate it immediately in your Cal.com settings.

Toolsets

You can restrict which tools the server registers for a session by appending a toolsets query parameter to the server URL:

https://mcp.cal.com/mcp?toolsets=bookings,availability

Valid toolsets: profile, event-types, events, bookings, availability, schedules, calendars, contacts, teams, organizations, routing-forms, catalog (the find_api_operation / describe_api_operation / call_api_operation meta-tools). Unknown names are rejected with 400 invalid_request. Omitting the parameter registers every tool; the local tools get_app_link and search_docs are always registered regardless of the selection. For a self-hosted stdio server, set MCP_TOOLSETS instead.

Interactive views (MCP Apps)

In clients that support MCP Apps, get_availability and get_bookings also show an interactive view in the chat, so you can pick times and manage bookings by clicking instead of typing:

Slot picker (get_availability): open times grouped by day. Use the arrows to move to earlier or later dates, click a time, enter the attendee’s name and email, and click Book. When the assistant is finding a new time for an existing booking, clicking a time offers Move booking here instead.
Bookings (get_bookings): one card per booking with its time and attendees. Upcoming bookings have Join (when the booking has a meeting link), Reschedule, which shows open times for the next week to pick from, and Cancel, which asks you to confirm in the card first.

Times are shown in the timezone your client reports, and the views follow its light or dark theme. Actions run through the same create_booking, reschedule_booking and cancel_booking tools on your existing connection, and the assistant is told what you did.

The views are available only when both the bookings and availability toolsets are enabled, which is the default when you don’t pass toolsets. Clients without MCP Apps support get the same text results as before.
