Calendly Skill
Interact with Calendly scheduling via MCP-generated CLI.
Note: This CLI includes schedule-event and reschedule-event with strict input validation and MCP-first execution. If MCP scheduling is unavailable, each command falls back to Calendly REST.
Quick Start
bun run install:path
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
command -v calendly
calendly get-current-user
calendly list-events \
--user-uri "<YOUR_USER_URI>" \
--min-start-time "2026-01-20T00:00:00Z" \
--max-start-time "2026-01-27T23:59:59Z"
calendly get-event --event-uuid <UUID>
calendly cancel-event --event-uuid <UUID> --reason "Rescheduling needed"
Default install target: ~/.local/bin/calendly.
Override it with bun run install:path -- --bin-dir /your/bin/dir.

Usage in OpenClaw
When user asks about:
- "What meetings do I have?" →
list-events with --min-start-time (use recent date!)
- "Show me all demos this week with who booked them" →
list-events --include-invitees (expand first; fallback hydrate only when needed)
- "Cancel my 2pm meeting" → Find with
list-events (time-filtered), then cancel-event
- "Who's attending X meeting?" →
list-events --include-invitees (with fallback) or list-event-invitees
Note: First time, run calendly get-current-user to obtain your User URI.
Getting Your User URI
Run calendly get-current-user to get your user URI. Example:
{
"resource": {
"uri": "https://api.calendly.com/users/<YOUR_USER_UUID>",
"scheduling_url": "https://calendly.com/<your-username>"
}
}

Webhook signing secret guidance:
- Keep
CALENDLY_WEBHOOK_SIGNING_KEY in secure runtime config (env/secret manager), never committed.
- Use a long random value and rotate it if exposed.
- Verify Calendly webhook signatures in your receiver with the same secret used at subscription creation.
- If using
--scope user, include --user-uri "https://api.calendly.com/users/<USER_UUID>".
Scheduling Requirements
schedule-event uses the upstream calendly-mcp-server scheduling signature:
- Required:
event_type, start_time, invitee_email, invitee_timezone
- Optional:
invitee_name, invitee_first_name, invitee_last_name, invitee_phone, location_kind, location_details, event_guests, questions_and_answers, utm_source, utm_campaign, utm_medium
Validation behavior:
start_time must be ISO-8601 and in the future
event_type must be a Calendly event type URI
- invitee and guest emails must be valid
- timezone must be valid IANA timezone
- custom questions must be valid JSON object/array
reschedule-event accepts flexible identifiers and normalizes them before execution:
- Identifier source (at least one required):
--event-uuid/--event-uri or --invitee-uuid/--invitee-uri or --reschedule-url
- Required:
--new-start-time (ISO-8601, future)
- Optional:
--new-end-time (must be after new start), --event-type (event type URI), --reason
- When
--new-end-time or --event-type is omitted, CLI derives values from the current scheduled event during REST fallback
- REST fallback payload maps to Calendly rescheduling fields:
event_type, event_start_time, event_end_time, and optional reason
update-event-type updates only explicitly provided mutable fields:
- Identifier:
--event-type-uri or --event-type-uuid
- Mutable fields:
--name, --description, --duration, --active, --secret
- Validation:
duration must be an integer between 15 and 480; boolean fields require explicit true or false
- Safety:
--dry-run returns the normalized patch payload without sending MCP or REST requests
Plan and availability notes:
- Paid Calendly plan (Standard or higher) is required; free plans return
403.
- To reduce booking conflicts, call
get-event-type-availability first and pass one returned slot start_time.
- For live smoke tests of
update-event-type, use a disposable event type and restore the original field value after confirming the update succeeded.
Important: Time Filtering
Always use --min-start-time when querying recent events!
Date bounds are validated:
--min-start-time and --max-start-time must be ISO-8601 timestamps (for example 2026-01-20T00:00:00Z)
- when both are provided,
min-start-time must be less than or equal to max-start-time
- validation is the same for normal flags and
--raw input
The API returns events oldest-first by default and doesn't support pagination via CLI. Without a time filter, you'll get events from years ago.
For invitees with events, use list-events --include-invitees. It uses expand=invitees first and only falls back per event when invitees_counter.active > 0 but embedded invitees are missing.
Control fallback cost with:
--hydrate-invitees <true|false> (default true for include-invitees path)
--max-invitee-fetches <number> (default 25)
When capped, output metadata includes meta.invitee_hydration.truncated and truncation_reason.
calendly list-events --user-uri "<URI>" --min-start-time "$(date -u -d '7 days ago' +%Y-%m-%dT00:00:00Z)"
calendly list-events \
--user-uri "<URI>" \
--include-invitees \
--max-invitee-fetches 25 \
--min-start-time "2026-01-20T00:00:00Z" \
--max-start-time "2026-01-27T23:59:59Z"
calendly list-events --user-uri "<URI>" --min-start-time "$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)"
Notes
- All times in API responses are UTC (convert to Pacific for display)
- Event UUIDs are found in
list-events output
- OAuth tools available but not needed with Personal Access Token
- No pagination support in CLI - use time filters instead
