⚠️ DISCLAIMER: This is an UNOFFICIAL TimeTree MCP server for PERSONAL USE ONLY. Not affiliated with TimeTree, Inc. May break at any time. See DISCLAIMER.md for full details.

An unofficial MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that allows MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, Cline, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) to access your TimeTree calendar data.

Credits: This project was inspired by and uses API insights from TimeTree-Exporter by @eoleedi.

• Git (for installation)
• A TimeTree account
• An MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, Cline, etc.)

Installation

🚀 Quick Installation for Your Agent

Copy this prompt into Codex, Claude Code, or another coding agent:

Clone https://github.com/ehs208/TimeTree-MCP, enter the cloned directory, run npm ci && npm run build, then configure my MCP client with a server named timetree that runs node /absolute/path/to/TimeTree-MCP/dist/index.js (use the real cloned path). Store TIMETREE_EMAIL and TIMETREE_PASSWORD only in the MCP client environment configuration, and never hardcode or print secrets.

Quick Install (Recommended)

One-line installation - Automatically clones, builds, attempts optional npm link, and prints client configuration examples:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ehs208/TimeTree-MCP/main/TimeTree-MCP-install.sh | bash

This project is installed from a GitHub clone, not the npm registry. The script builds the local clone, optionally runs npm link, then prints configuration instructions with absolute node/dist/index.js paths for all supported MCP clients. Just copy the config for your client and add your TimeTree credentials.

Manual Install

git clone https://github.com/ehs208/TimeTree-MCP.git
cd TimeTree-MCP
npm ci
npm run build

Configuration

Quick Example (Claude Desktop - macOS):

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "timetree": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/TimeTree-MCP/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "TIMETREE_EMAIL": "[email protected]",
        "TIMETREE_PASSWORD": "your-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace the path with your cloned repository path. If a GUI client cannot find node, use the absolute path from command -v node as command. Then restart Claude Desktop (Cmd+Q and reopen).

📖 For all MCP clients (Claude Desktop Windows, Claude Code CLI, Codex, Antigravity, VS Code editors, etc.): → See docs/MCP_CLIENTS.md for detailed configuration instructions

Updating

To update to the latest version:

cd /path/to/TimeTree-MCP  # or your installation path
git pull origin main
npm ci
npm run build

Then restart your MCP client.

📖 For detailed update instructions and troubleshooting: → See docs/UPDATING.md

Usage

📖 See COMMANDS.md for detailed usage examples and workflows

MCP Tools

• list_calendars - List all calendars with participating users
• get_events - Get events from a calendar with auto-pagination
• get_updated_events - Get events updated after a specific timestamp (efficient incremental sync)
• create_event - Create a new event in a calendar (supports alerts, recurrences, attendees, checklist)
• update_event - Update an existing event
• delete_event - Delete an event from a calendar
• list_memos / create_memo / update_memo / delete_memo - Manage TimeTree memos
• add_event_comment / list_event_comments / update_event_comment / delete_event_comment - Manage event comments
• get_calendar_labels / update_calendar_labels - Read or merge-update calendar labels
• get_calendar_members / get_calendar_virtual_members - Read calendar member metadata
• poster_workspace_status / mark_poster_processed - Manage a local poster-processing folder and CSV log

create_event and update_event can also accept image_path plus optional poster_workspace_root to move a processed poster and write the CSV log after the TimeTree write succeeds. This workflow does not upload the image to TimeTree.

📖 See COMMANDS.md for parameters and usage details.

Development

# Build the project
npm run build

# Watch mode (auto-rebuild on changes)
npm run dev

Limitations

• Unofficial API: May break if TimeTree changes their internal API
• Rate Limited: 10 requests/second (with automatic retry for 429 errors)
• No Official Support: TimeTree does not officially support this tool
• CSRF Token Required: Write operations require CSRF token (automatically extracted from TimeTree web page)

Security

• Credentials are stored only in your local MCP configuration
• Session cookies are stored in memory only (never persisted to disk)
• Passwords and session IDs are automatically masked in logs
• All communication uses HTTPS

Troubleshooting

"Missing required environment variables" error

Make sure TIMETREE_EMAIL and TIMETREE_PASSWORD are set in your MCP configuration.

Poster workflow folder

Set TIMETREE_POSTER_WORKSPACE_ROOT if you want poster workflow tools to use a specific folder. If omitted, the default is ~/Desktop/timetree-posters.

Authentication fails

• Verify your email and password are correct
• Check if you can log in to TimeTree web app
• TimeTree might have changed their authentication API

No calendars or events returned

• Verify you have calendars/events in your TimeTree account
• Check the logs for detailed error messages
• The API might have changed
