list_calendar_events

Instructions

Implementation Reference

• src/index.ts:491-516 (registration)

  Tool registration + schema definition for 'list_calendar_events' in the ListTools handler. Defines name, description, and inputSchema with calendarId, startDate, endDate, limit.

  {
    name: 'list_calendar_events',
    description: 'List events from a calendar',
    inputSchema: {
      type: 'object',
      properties: {
        calendarId: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'ID of the calendar (optional, defaults to all calendars)',
        },
        startDate: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'Filter events starting from this date (ISO 8601, e.g. 2026-03-23T00:00:00Z)',
        },
        endDate: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'Filter events ending before this date (ISO 8601, e.g. 2026-03-30T00:00:00Z)',
        },
        limit: {
          type: 'number',
          description: 'Maximum number of events to return (default: 50)',
          default: 50,
        },
      },
    },
  },

• src/index.ts:1318-1332 (handler)

  Handler for 'list_calendar_events' in the CallTool switch. Extracts args (calendarId, limit, startDate, endDate), tries JMAP ContactsCalendarClient first, falls back to CalDAVCalendarClient.

  case 'list_calendar_events': {
    const { calendarId, limit = 50, startDate, endDate } = args as any;
    try {
      const contactsClient = initializeContactsCalendarClient();
      const events = await contactsClient.getCalendarEvents(calendarId, limit);
      return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(events, null, 2) }] };
    } catch {
      const davClient = initializeCalDAVClient();
      if (!davClient) {
        throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidRequest, 'JMAP calendars not available and CalDAV not configured. Set FASTMAIL_CALDAV_USERNAME and FASTMAIL_CALDAV_PASSWORD to use CalDAV.');
      }
      const events = await davClient.getCalendarEvents(calendarId, limit, startDate, endDate);
      return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(events, null, 2) }] };
    }
  }

• src/contacts-calendar.ts:150-184 (handler)

  JMAP implementation: ContactsCalendarClient.getCalendarEvents() - calls CalendarEvent/query then CalendarEvent/get.

  async getCalendarEvents(calendarId?: string, limit: number = 50): Promise<any[]> {
    // Check permissions first
    const hasPermission = await this.checkCalendarsPermission();
    if (!hasPermission) {
      throw new Error('Calendar access not available. This account may not have JMAP calendar permissions enabled. Please check your Fastmail account settings or contact support to enable calendar API access.');
    }
  
    const session = await this.getSession();
    
    const filter = calendarId ? { inCalendar: calendarId } : {};
    
    const request: JmapRequest = {
      using: ['urn:ietf:params:jmap:core', 'urn:ietf:params:jmap:calendars'],
      methodCalls: [
        ['CalendarEvent/query', {
          accountId: session.accountId,
          filter,
          sort: [{ property: 'start', isAscending: true }],
          limit
        }, 'query'],
        ['CalendarEvent/get', {
          accountId: session.accountId,
          '#ids': { resultOf: 'query', name: 'CalendarEvent/query', path: '/ids' },
          properties: ['id', 'title', 'description', 'start', 'end', 'location', 'participants']
        }, 'events']
      ]
    };
  
    try {
      const response = await this.makeRequest(request);
      return this.getListResult(response, 1);
    } catch (error) {
      throw new Error(`Calendar events access not supported: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}. Try checking account permissions or enabling calendar API access in Fastmail settings.`);
    }
  }

• src/caldav-client.ts:226-263 (handler)

  CalDAV fallback implementation: CalDAVCalendarClient.getCalendarEvents() - fetches calendar objects via DAVClient, parses iCalendar VEVENT data.

  async getCalendarEvents(calendarId?: string, limit: number = 50, startDate?: string, endDate?: string): Promise<CalendarEvent[]> {
    const client = await this.getClient();
  
    if (!this.calendars) {
      this.calendars = await client.fetchCalendars();
    }
  
    let targetCalendars = this.calendars.filter(
      c => c.displayName !== 'DEFAULT_TASK_CALENDAR_NAME'
    );
    if (calendarId) {
      targetCalendars = targetCalendars.filter(
        c => c.url === calendarId || c.displayName === calendarId
      );
    }
  
    const fetchOptions: any = {};
    if (startDate || endDate) {
      fetchOptions.timeRange = {
        start: startDate || '1970-01-01T00:00:00Z',
        end: endDate || '2099-12-31T23:59:59Z',
      };
    }
  
    const allEvents: CalendarEvent[] = [];
    for (const cal of targetCalendars) {
      const objects = await client.fetchCalendarObjects({ calendar: cal, ...fetchOptions });
      for (const obj of objects) {
        allEvents.push(parseCalendarObject(obj));
      }
      if (allEvents.length >= limit) break;
    }
  
    // Sort by start date ascending
    allEvents.sort((a, b) => (a.start || '').localeCompare(b.start || ''));
  
    return allEvents.slice(0, limit);
  }
