## Description
Cal.com scheduling MCP server: manage bookings, event types, and availability.

## 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-cal": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","mcp-server-cal"]
  }
}
```

Cal.com scheduling MCP server - manage bookings, event types, and availability directly from your AI assistant.

## Why this server?

Connect Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible AI to your Cal.com account. Create bookings, check availability, manage event types, and view schedules - all via natural language.

## Install

Two ways to run this server — pick the one that fits.

### Option 1 — Hosted (zero setup)

No local runtime, no env vars on your machine — secrets are AES-256-GCM encrypted server-side via HashiCorp Vault.

1. Sign up at **[aiwerkmcp.com](https://aiwerkmcp.com)**.
2. Install **Cal.com** from the catalog and paste your `CAL_API_KEY`.
3. Point your MCP client (Claude.ai, Cursor, Hermes, …) at your hosted endpoint:
   ```
   https://bridge.aiwerk.ch/u/<your-user-id>/mcp
   ```
   with your Bearer token.

All 12 tools, 3 resources, and 3 prompts appear. Install other AIWerk recipes from the same bridge.

### Option 2 — Self-hosted (npx)

Run directly — you manage the API key:

```bash
CAL_API_KEY=cal_live_your_api_key_here npx @aiwerk/mcp-server-cal
```

Or wire it into your MCP client config — see [Configuration](#configuration) below.

## Configuration

### Claude Desktop

Add to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cal": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@aiwerk/mcp-server-cal"],
      "env": {
        "CAL_API_KEY": "cal_live_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### Cursor

Add to `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project or `~/.cursor/mcp.json` globally:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cal": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@aiwerk/mcp-server-cal"],
      "env": {
        "CAL_API_KEY": "cal_live_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### OpenClaw / Universal Recipe

```json
{
  "name": "cal",
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["@aiwerk/mcp-server-cal"],
  "env": {
    "CAL_API_KEY": "${CAL_API_KEY}"
  }
}
```

## Environment Variables

| Variable | Required | Default | Description |
|----------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `CAL_API_KEY` | Yes (on tool call) | - | Cal.com API key (`cal_` or `cal_live_` prefix) |
| `CAL_BASE_URL` | No | `https://api.cal.com/v2` | Override the Cal.com API base URL |

The server starts and responds to `tools/list` without `CAL_API_KEY`. The key is only required when an actual tool is called (lazy credentials pattern).

## Getting Your API Key

1. Go to [Cal.com Settings](https://app.cal.com/settings/developer/api-keys)
2. Create a new API key
3. Copy the key (starts with `cal_live_` for production)

## Security

- Never commit your API key to version control
- Use environment variables or a secrets manager
- The server only reads `CAL_API_KEY` at tool call time, never logs it
