# 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

```bash
# Make the launcher available on PATH
bun run install:path
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
command -v calendly

# Get your Calendly profile (returns user URI)
calendly get-current-user

# List RECENT events (always use --min-start-time for recent queries!)
calendly list-events \
  --user-uri "<YOUR_USER_URI>" \
  --min-start-time "2026-01-20T00:00:00Z" \
  --max-start-time "2026-01-27T23:59:59Z"

# Get event details
calendly get-event --event-uuid <UUID>

# Cancel an event
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`.

## Available Commands

## Configuration

API key can be stored in your environment or `.env` file:
```bash
export CALENDLY_API_KEY="<your-pat-token>"
# Or in legacy ~/.moltbot/.env / ~/.clawdbot/.env
```

Get your Personal Access Token from: https://calendly.com/integrations/api_webhooks

## 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:
```json
{
  "resource": {
    "uri": "https://api.calendly.com/users/<YOUR_USER_UUID>",
    "scheduling_url": "https://calendly.com/<your-username>"
  }
}
```

# Delete webhook subscription
calendly delete-webhook-subscription \

```

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`.

```bash
# Last 7 days
calendly list-events --user-uri "<URI>" --min-start-time "$(date -u -d '7 days ago' +%Y-%m-%dT00:00:00Z)"

# This week with invitees (expand first; bounded fallback)
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"

# Future events only
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
