Skylight Calendar for Claude — family events, chores, and rewards.
Skylight Calendar for Claude — family events, chores, and rewards. The skylight mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 11 defined tools rather than through you.
MCP server for Skylight Calendar — 102 tools across calendar events (read+write), shared lists (read+write), chores and rewards (read+write), task-box items (read+write), meals (read+write), AI auto-creation (meal-plan + activity-idea generators with draft review/approve), messages and albums (read+write), and frame/device/account settings + calendar + member management (read+write).
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
Module — Toolframes — skylight_list_framesevents — skylight_list_eventslists — skylight_list_listschores — skylight_list_choresrewards — skylight_get_rewardmeals — skylight_list_recipesmessages — skylight_list_messagestasks — skylight_list_tasksRequired — The Required tool exposed by this serverOptional — Treat .env like a password file — it is gitignored, do not commit itYou will need 2 environment variables: SKYLIGHT_FRAME_ID, SKYLIGHT_BASE_URL. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at npm on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Plenty of planning and project tracking servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Skylight's toolset — Module, frames, events and 8 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by chrischall; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
