What the publisher says

From the Google Calendar repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

google-cal-mcp

MCP server for Google Calendar - list, create, update, and manage calendar events.

Use Cases

Schedule meetings: "Set up a 30-min sync with Sarah next week" → finds a free slot, creates the event with a Meet link, and sends the invite.

RSVP to invites: "Accept the team offsite but decline the vendor demo" → responds to pending invitations automatically.

Find availability: "When am I free this Thursday afternoon?" → queries your calendar and returns open slots.

Reschedule events: "Move my 1:1 with Alex to Friday at 2pm" → updates the event and notifies attendees.

Daily briefing: "What's on my calendar today?" → lists all events with times, locations, and attendees.

Block focus time: "Block 2 hours tomorrow morning for deep work" → creates a calendar event to protect your time.

(These are just examples - any workflow that needs calendar access can use this.)

Setup

1. Create Google OAuth credentials

  1. Go to Google Cloud Console
  2. Create a new project (or use existing)
  3. Enable the Google Calendar API
  4. Go to APIs & Services → OAuth consent screen, set up consent screen
  5. Go to APIs & Services → Credentials → Create Credentials → OAuth client ID
  6. Choose Web application
  7. Add http://localhost:3000/callback to Authorized redirect URIs
  8. Note your Client ID and Client Secret

2. Run the server

GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID='your-client-id' \
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET='your-client-secret' \
MCP_TRANSPORT=http \
npm start

The server runs on http://localhost:3000 by default. Change with PORT=3001.

3. Add to your MCP client

With the server running, follow the instructions on install-mcp, which generates the right config for your MCP client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, VS Code, and more).

Architecture

This server acts as an OAuth proxy to Google:

graph LR
    A[MCP client] <--> B[google-cal-mcp] <--> C[Google OAuth/API]
  1. Server advertises itself as an OAuth authorization server via /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server
  2. /register returns the Google OAuth client credentials
  3. /authorize redirects to Google, encoding the client's callback URL in state
  4. /callback receives the code from Google and forwards to the client's callback
  5. /token proxies token requests to Google, injecting client credentials
  6. /mcp handles MCP requests, using the bearer token to call Calendar API

The server holds no tokens or state - it just proxies OAuth to Google.
