Cal.com MCP

MCP server

Connect AI clients to Cal.com scheduling through the Model Context Protocol using the hosted server at mcp.cal.com or a local instance.

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.

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`

```json theme={null}
{
  "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`:

```json theme={null}
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "calcom": {
      "url": "https://mcp.cal.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Add the server to your VS Code MCP settings:

```json theme={null}
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "calcom": {
      "url": "https://mcp.cal.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

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

```json theme={null}
{
  "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](https://fx.sh/docs/capabilities/mcp) 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.

Warning

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, bookings, availability, schedules, calendars, 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.
