[Displays a clean overview of your upcoming week]
You: "Add a lunch meeting with Sarah tomorrow at noon"
Claude: "✨ 📅 Created: Lunch with Sarah Tomorrow, 12:00 PM"
```

## 🚀 Quick Start
> 💡 **Note**: While these instructions focus on setting up the MCP server with Claude for Desktop, this server can be used with any MCP-compatible client. For more details on using different clients, see [the MCP documentation](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/client).
### Prerequisites
- [uv package manager](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv)
- macOS with Calendar app configured
- An MCP client - [Claude for desktop](https://claude.ai/download) is recommended
### Installation
Whilst this MCP server can be used with any MCP compatible client, the instructions below are for use with Claude for desktop.
1. **Clone and Setup**
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/Omar-V2/mcp-ical.git
cd mcp-ical
# Install dependencies
uv sync
```
2. **Configure Claude for Desktop**
Create or edit `~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-ical": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/PARENT/FOLDER/mcp-ical",
"run",
"mcp-ical"
]
}
}
}
```
3. **Launch Claude for Calendar Access**
> ⚠️ **Critical**: Claude must be launched from the terminal to properly request calendar permissions. Launching directly from Finder will not trigger the permissions prompt.
Run the following command in your terminal.
```bash
/Applications/Claude.app/Contents/MacOS/Claude
```
> ⚠️ **Warning**: Alternatively, you can [manually grant calendar access](docs/install.md#method-2-manually-grant-calendar-access), but this involves modifying system files and should only be done if you understand the risks involved.
4. **Start Using!**
```text
Try: "What's my schedule looking like for next week?"
```
> 🔑 **Note**: When you first use a calendar-related command, macOS will prompt for calendar access. This prompt will only appear if you launched Claude from the terminal as specified above.
## 🧪 Testing
> ⚠️ **Warning**: Tests will create temporary calendars and events. While cleanup is automatic, only run tests in development environments.
```bash
# Install dev dependencies
uv sync --dev
# Run test suite
uv run pytest tests
```
## 🐛 Known Issues
