Built on 26 production-ready tools spanning CalDAV, CardDAV, and VTODO protocols.

Quick Start

Claude Desktop / Cursor (Local)

Add to your MCP config file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dav-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dav-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CALDAV_SERVER_URL": "https://dav.example.com",
        "CALDAV_USERNAME": "your_username",
        "CALDAV_PASSWORD": "your_password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Config file locations:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Restart Claude Desktop after adding the configuration.

n8n (Remote HTTP)

Start the HTTP server:

CALDAV_SERVER_URL=https://dav.example.com \
CALDAV_USERNAME=your_username \
CALDAV_PASSWORD=your_password \
BEARER_TOKEN=your-secret-token \
npx dav-mcp --http

Then in n8n:

Add AI Agent node
Add MCP Client Tool node and connect to AI Agent
Configure:
- MCP Endpoint: http://localhost:3000/mcp
- Authentication: Bearer
- Token: your-secret-token

Custom port:

npx dav-mcp --http --port=8080

Docker

git clone https://github.com/PhilflowIO/dav-mcp.git
cd dav-mcp
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your credentials
docker-compose up

Task Management	Full VTODO support (7 tools)	Rarely included
Field-Based Updates	All RFC properties + custom fields	Rarely available
Server-Side Filtering	Efficient queries	Dumps all data
Multi-Provider	Any CalDAV/CardDAV server	Limited provider support
Total Tools	26 tools	2-6 tools
