This MCP server acts as a bridge, giving AI agents the ability to manage calendars, contacts, and tasks via CalDAV, CardDAV, and VTODO protocols.
Security Assessment
The tool inherently requires access to highly sensitive data. It directly handles user credentials (CALDAV_USERNAME, CALDAV_PASSWORD) to interact with external servers, meaning it constantly processes personal scheduling and contact information. Additionally, environment variables are accessed within the test scripts. A critical red flag is the presence of a recursive force deletion command (`rm -rf`) inside the package.json file. If triggered unexpectedly or maliciously, this could result in severe data loss on the host machine. Because of the `rm -rf` finding and the handling of sensitive credentials, the overall risk is rated as High.
Quality Assessment
The project is actively maintained, with its last code push occurring today. It benefits from clear documentation, a standard MIT license, and has garnered 16 GitHub stars, indicating a modest level of community trust and early adoption.
Verdict
Use with caution due to a dangerous recursive delete command in the package configuration and the inherent handling of sensitive credentials.

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
- MCP Endpoint:
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
The Orchestration
When partial tools force your AI to improvise, complete tools let it execute precise operations across all components.
| Capability | dav-mcp | Most MCPs |
|---|---|---|
| Calendar Management | Full CRUD (11 tools) | Create + list only (2-3 tools) |
| Contact Management | Complete CardDAV (8 tools) | Often missing entirely |
| 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 |

Real-World Applications
n8n Automation Workflows
- Meeting Management: "Show me all Friday meetings" → calendar_query with date filter returns only relevant events
- Contact Search: "Find everyone at Google" → addressbook_query with org filter finds matches efficiently
- Task Reporting: "Show overdue high-priority tasks" → todo_query with filters returns specific results
- Scheduled Cleanup: Daily cron job deletes completed tasks using targeted queries
Claude Desktop Integration
- Quick Event Creation: "Create team meeting tomorrow 2 PM" → create_event executes immediately
- Contact Lookup: "What's Sarah's email?" → addressbook_query with name filter finds contact
- Calendar Overview: "What's on my calendar next week?" → calendar_query with date range shows events
- Calendar Management: "Create a new calendar called Project Luna" → make_calendar creates collection
Works Across All Major Providers
Works with any CalDAV/CardDAV server that follows RFC 4791 and RFC 6352:
- Nextcloud - Full support
- Baikal - Full support
- Radicale - Full support
- iCloud - Works with app-specific password
- Any RFC-compliant server - Standard protocol support
Google Calendar (OAuth2)
For Google Calendar, use OAuth2 authentication:
