Script Complex Date Calculations

This MCP gives your shell scripts the ability to perform date math that respects weekends and holidays. Just pipe a start date and region into it. For example, you can use `business_deadline_tool` to find a service-level agreement (SLA) date and then use that output to schedule a job. It's much safer than `date -v+30d`.

Automate Environment Checks

Before running a deployment on a banking holiday, you can build a check. Create a script that uses `holiday_registry_tool` to see if today is a public holiday in your target region. If it is, the script can halt the process. This prevents accidental deployments during code freezes. You can also calculate simple offsets with `calendar_deadline_tool` for less critical tasks.

Integrate with CI/CD Pipelines

This MCP Server is built for automation. Add a step to your GitHub Actions or Jenkinsfile that calls the Deadline Calculator. You can automatically set review deadlines on pull requests or calculate expiration dates for temporary cloud resources. Since it’s just a CLI command, it fits right into any existing workflow.

Common questions about Deadline Calculator MCP in Claude Code

Once connected, you can call its tools directly from your terminal. For example: `claude deadline-calculator-mcp business_deadline_tool --start_date 2024-09-01 --days 15 --region US`.

Yes, that's the primary use case. You can pipe the JSON output to `jq` to extract the date and then use it in another script or command.

The business day calculations account for standard Saturday/Sunday weekends. For regions with different work weeks, you'll need to check if your specific holiday registry provides that metadata.

Run `claude mcp add --transport http deadline-calculator-mcp -- `. Then verify the connection with `claude mcp list`.

Yes. The MCP operates on minimal data. It only processes the start dates, day counts, and region strings you provide as arguments. No environmental data from your shell or CI runner is ever accessed.
