## Description
AI-native scheduling: check availability, book meetings, cancel and reschedule via MCP

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "mcp-server": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","mcp-server-50"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation & README

# @astrocal/mcp-server

**Give your AI agents the power to schedule meetings.** The official [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server for [Astrocal](https://astrocal.dev) — the API-first scheduling platform built for developers and AI agents.

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client. Your AI assistant can check availability, book meetings, cancel, reschedule, and manage waitlists — all through natural conversation.

## Why Astrocal for AI Agents?

- **Purpose-built for AI** — Not a Calendly bolt-on. Astrocal's [scheduling API](https://astrocal.dev/docs/api-reference) was designed from day one for programmatic and AI-agent access.
- **8 tools, zero config** — Check availability, book, cancel, reschedule, list event types, manage waitlists. Everything an agent needs.
- **Calendar sync built in** — Connects to Google Calendar, Microsoft 365, and CalDAV. Your agent books against real availability.
- **Payments included** — [Stripe Connect integration](https://astrocal.dev/docs/guides/payments) means your agent can book paid consultations, not just free meetings.
- **Sandbox mode** — Test with `ac_test_*` keys. No emails sent, no calendar events created, no charges made.

## Quick Start

### Claude Desktop

      "env": {
        "ASTROCAL_API_KEY": "ac_live_xxxxxxxxxxxxx"
      }
    }
