Install Apple Calendar

Pick your client, copy the command, done.

Manual setup required. The maintainer's config contains paths only you know — edit the placeholders below before adding it to Claude Code.

Run this once before adding it to Claude Code.

cd ~/mcp-servers/calendar
npm install
npm run build

claude mcp add apple-calendar -- node /path/to/apple-calendar-mcp/dist/index.js

Replace any placeholder paths in the command with the real path on your machine.
