Security Report
This Google Calendar MCP server implements OAuth delegation with reasonable security practices, but has several concerns that warrant attention. The server properly requires authentication for most operations, implements token validation, and avoids hardcoding secrets. However, the token validation mechanism has a critical flaw (caching based on opaque tokens without verification), the /authorize endpoint lacks CSRF protection, and there are input validation gaps in multiple tools. These issues are mitigated by the fact that tokens originate from Google's OAuth flow and the server operates as a proxy, but the implementation should be hardened. Supply chain analysis found 5 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (1 critical, 2 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue (1 critical, 0 high severity).

google-cal-mcp
MCP server for Google Calendar - list, create, update, and manage calendar events.
Use Cases
Schedule meetings: "Set up a 30-min sync with Sarah next week" → finds a free slot, creates the event with a Meet link, and sends the invite.
RSVP to invites: "Accept the team offsite but decline the vendor demo" → responds to pending invitations automatically.
Find availability: "When am I free this Thursday afternoon?" → queries your calendar and returns open slots.
Reschedule events: "Move my 1:1 with Alex to Friday at 2pm" → updates the event and notifies attendees.
Daily briefing: "What's on my calendar today?" → lists all events with times, locations, and attendees.
Block focus time: "Block 2 hours tomorrow morning for deep work" → creates a calendar event to protect your time.
(These are just examples - any workflow that needs calendar access can use this.)
Setup
1. Create Google OAuth credentials
- Go to Google Cloud Console
- Create a new project (or use existing)
- Enable the Google Calendar API
- Go to APIs & Services → OAuth consent screen, set up consent screen
- Go to APIs & Services → Credentials → Create Credentials → OAuth client ID
- Choose Web application
- Add
http://localhost:3000/callbackto Authorized redirect URIs - Note your Client ID and Client Secret
2. Run the server
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID='your-client-id' \
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET='your-client-secret' \
MCP_TRANSPORT=http \
npm start
The server runs on http://localhost:3000 by default. Change with PORT=3001.
3. Add to your MCP client
With the server running, follow the instructions on install-mcp, which generates the right config for your MCP client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, VS Code, and more).
Architecture
This server acts as an OAuth proxy to Google:
graph LR
A[MCP client] <--> B[google-cal-mcp] <--> C[Google OAuth/API]
- Server advertises itself as an OAuth authorization server via
/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server /registerreturns the Google OAuth client credentials/authorizeredirects to Google, encoding the client's callback URL in state/callbackreceives the code from Google and forwards to the client's callback/tokenproxies token requests to Google, injecting client credentials/mcphandles MCP requests, using the bearer token to call Calendar API
The server holds no tokens or state - it just proxies OAuth to Google.
