Align developer calendars inside VS Code Copilot

Query your team's availability using the `get_slots` and `get_busy_times` tools inside this MCP Server directly inside VS Code Copilot to align developer calendars. If you need to schedule a code review, ask Copilot to find a slot. It queries the team schedules and proposes options that work for everyone on the project.

Manage meeting lifecycles from VS Code Copilot

Manage meeting lifecycles using the `create_booking` and `reschedule_booking` tools via this MCP Server inside your VS Code Copilot sidebar. When plans change, tell the editor to update the slot. It calls `cancel_booking` and sets up the new time instantly, keeping your development sprints on track.

Configure team events from your workspace

Establish team scheduling rules using the `create_team` and `create_membership` tools directly from your VS Code Copilot workspace. You can also manage team event templates. The editor uses `create_event_type` to build standardized booking templates for sprint planning or standups without requiring anyone to open a browser.
