Share planning over MCP

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants and agents talk to external systems in a structured way. Dime.Scheduler ships an MCP server, so you can share the planning with tools like Claude, Copilot, and other MCP-aware assistants - and let them read and act on the schedule on your behalf.

Instead of exporting a file or opening the app, you ask the assistant. It queries the planning through the MCP server and answers in natural language, or carries out scheduling actions for you.

What you can do with it​

Once an assistant is connected to the Dime.Scheduler MCP server, it can work with the planning directly - for example:

  • Look up the schedule for a resourceResourceAn entity that can carry out work - a person, vehicle, tool, or room - that you schedule on the planning board., jobJobA high-level container, comparable to a project, that bundles related tasks together with common information such as customer, billing, and address., or date range.
  • Create and update tasksTaskA unit of work that belongs to a job. It appears in the open task list until it is scheduled to a resource. and appointmentsAppointmentA task scheduled to a resource for a specific period - the scheduled instance you see on the planning board..
  • Run optimization and send messages.

The exact capabilities depend on the tools the MCP server exposes.

Set it up​

The MCP server is configured and connected in the integrations section. For prerequisites, configuration, supported clients, and the full list of tools, see the MCP integration guide.
