Manage bookings inside Claude Desktop

Stop switching between your dashboard and your AI agent. You can use `create_booking` and `delete_booking` to handle your schedule immediately while chatting. Your agent parses your natural language requests to trigger these actions. It keeps your calendar updated without you touching a manual form.

Check availability via MakePlans

Ask your agent when you are free and it uses `list_available_slots` to find the truth. It pulls data from your specific services to show what is actually open. You get accurate responses based on live data. There is no guessing or checking old spreadsheets when you need to book a new appointment.

Inspect your resources and services

Use `list_resources` and `list_services` to see exactly what you have on offer. If you need details on a specific room or staff member, `get_resource` provides the full context. This gives your agent a clear view of your operations. It handles the lookups so you can focus on confirming the details with your clients.
