--- name: cal-com-automation description: "Automate Cal.com tasks via Rube MCP (Composio): manage bookings, check availability, configure webhooks, and handle teams. Always search tools first for current schemas." requires: mcp: [rube] --- # Cal.com Automation via Rube MCP Automate Cal.com scheduling operations through Composio's Cal toolkit via Rube MCP. ## Prerequisites - Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available) - Active Cal.com connection via `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `cal` - Always call `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` first to get current tool schemas ## Setup **Get Rube MCP**: Add `https://rube.app/mcp` as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works. 1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` responds 2. Call `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `cal` 3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Cal.com authentication 4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows ## Core Workflows ### 1. Manage Bookings **When to use**: User wants to list, create, or review bookings **Tool sequence**: 1. `CAL_FETCH_ALL_BOOKINGS` - List all bookings with filters [Required] 2. `CAL_POST_NEW_BOOKING_REQUEST` - Create a new booking [Optional] **Key parameters for listing**: - `status`: Filter by booking status ('upcoming', 'recurring', 'past', 'cancelled', 'unconfirmed') - `afterStart`: Filter bookings after this date (ISO 8601) - `beforeEnd`: Filter bookings before this date (ISO 8601) **Key parameters for creation**: - `eventTypeId`: Event type ID for the booking - `start`: Booking start time (ISO 8601) - `end`: Booking end time (ISO 8601) - `name`: Attendee name - `email`: Attendee email - `timeZone`: Attendee timezone (IANA format) - `language`: Attendee language code - `metadata`: Additional metadata object **Pitfalls**: - Date filters use ISO 8601 format with timezone (e.g., '2024-01-15T09:00:00Z') - `eventTypeId` must reference a valid, active event type - Booking creation requires matching an available slot; check availability first - Time zone must be a valid IANA timezone string (e.g., 'America/New_York') - Status filter values are specific strings; invalid values return empty results ### 2. Check Availability **When to use**: User wants to find free/busy times or available booking slots **Tool sequence**: 1. [REDACTED_SECRET] - Get busy time blocks [Required] 2. `CAL_GET_AVAILABLE_SLOTS_INFO` - Get specific available slots [Required] **Key parameters**: - `dateFrom`: Start date for availability check (YYYY-MM-DD) - `dateTo`: End date for availability check (YYYY-MM-DD) - `eventTypeId`: Event type to check slots for - `timeZone`: Timezone for the availability response - `loggedInUsersTz`: Timezone of the requesting user **Pitfalls**: - Busy times show when the user is NOT available - Available slots are specific to an event type's duration and configuration - Date range should be reasonable (not months in advance) to get accurate results - Timezone affects how slots are displayed; always specify explicitly - Availability reflects calendar integrations (Google Calendar, Outlook, etc.) ### 3. Configure Webhooks **When to use**: User wants to set up or manage webhook notifications for booking events **Tool sequence**: 1. `CAL_RETRIEVE_WEBHOOKS_LIST` - List existing webhooks [Required] 2. `CAL_GET_WEBHOOK_BY_ID` - Get specific webhook details [Optional] 3. `CAL_UPDATE_WEBHOOK_BY_ID` - Update webhook configuration [Optional] 4. `CAL_DELETE_WEBHOOK_BY_ID` - Remove a webhook [Optional] **Key parameters**: - `id`: Webhook ID for GET/UPDATE/DELETE operations - `subscriberUrl`: Webhook endpoint URL - `eventTriggers`: Array of event types to trigger on - `active`: Whether the webhook is active - `secret`: Webhook signing secret **Pitfalls**: - Webhook URLs must be publicly accessible HTTPS endpoints - Event triggers include: 'BOOKING_CREATED', 'BOOKING_RESCHEDULED', 'BOOKING_CANCELLED', etc. - Inactive webhooks do not fire; toggle `active` to enable/disable - Webhook secrets are used for payload signature verification ### 4. Manage Teams **When to use**: User wants to create, view, or manage teams and team event types **Tool sequence**: 1. `CAL_GET_TEAMS_LIST` - List all teams [Required] 2. [REDACTED_SECRET] - Get specific team details [Optional] 3. `CAL_CREATE_TEAM_IN_ORGANIZATION` - Create a new team [Optional] 4. `CAL_RETRIEVE_TEAM_EVENT_TYPES` - List event types for a team [Optional] **Key parameters**: - `teamId`: Team identifier - `name`: Team name (for creation) - `slug`: URL-friendly team identifier **Pitfalls**: - Team creation may require organization-level permissions - Team event types are separate from personal event types - Team slugs must be URL-safe and unique within the organization ### 5. Organization Management **When to use**: User wants to view organization details **Tool sequence**: 1. `CAL_GET_ORGANIZATION_ID` - Get the organization ID [Required] **Key parameters**: (none required) **Pitfalls**: - Organization ID is needed for team creation and org-level operations - Not all Cal.com accounts have organizations; personal plans may return errors ## Common Patterns ### Booking Creation Flow ``` 1. Call CAL_GET_AVAILABLE_SLOTS_INFO to find open slots 2. Present available times to the user 3. Call CAL_POST_NEW_BOOKING_REQUEST with selected slot 4. Confirm booking creation response ``` ### ID Resolution **Team name -> Team ID**: ``` 1. Call CAL_GET_TEAMS_LIST 2. Find team by name in response 3. Extract id field ``` ### Webhook Setup ``` 1. Call CAL_RETRIEVE_WEBHOOKS_LIST to check existing hooks 2. Create or update webhook with desired triggers 3. Verify webhook fires on test booking ``` ## Known Pitfalls **Date/Time Formats**: - Booking times: ISO 8601 with timezone (e.g., '2024-01-15T09:00:00Z') - Availability dates: YYYY-MM-DD format - Always specify timezone explicitly to avoid confusion **Event Types**: - Event type IDs are numeric integers - Event types define duration, location, and booking rules - Disabled event types cannot accept new bookings **Permissions**: - Team operations require team membership or admin access - Organization operations require org-level permissions - Webhook management requires appropriate access level **Rate Limits**: - Cal.com API has rate limits per API key - Implement backoff on 429 responses ## Quick Reference | Task | Tool Slug | Key Params | |------|-----------|------------| | List bookings | CAL_FETCH_ALL_BOOKINGS | status, afterStart, beforeEnd | | Create booking | CAL_POST_NEW_BOOKING_REQUEST | eventTypeId, start, end, name, email | | Get busy times | CAL_RETRIEVE_CALENDAR_BUSY_TIMES | dateFrom, dateTo | | Get available slots | CAL_GET_AVAILABLE_SLOTS_INFO | eventTypeId, dateFrom, dateTo | | List webhooks | CAL_RETRIEVE_WEBHOOKS_LIST | (none) | | Get webhook | CAL_GET_WEBHOOK_BY_ID | id | | Update webhook | CAL_UPDATE_WEBHOOK_BY_ID | id, subscriberUrl, eventTriggers | | Delete webhook | CAL_DELETE_WEBHOOK_BY_ID | id | | List teams | CAL_GET_TEAMS_LIST | (none) | | Get team | CAL_GET_TEAM_INFORMATION_BY_TEAM_ID | teamId | | Create team | CAL_CREATE_TEAM_IN_ORGANIZATION | name, slug | | Team event types | CAL_RETRIEVE_TEAM_EVENT_TYPES | teamId | | Get org ID | CAL_GET_ORGANIZATION_ID | (none) |
