Triggers on phrases like "check Skylight", "what's on the family calendar", "add an event to Skylight", "what chores does [kid] have", "mark [chore] done", "add milk to the grocery list", "what's on our shopping list", "what's for dinner", "what's on the meal plan", "who's on the Skylight frame", or any request involving the Skylight frame, family calendar, chores, rewards, shared lists, or meals. Works against your own signed-in Skylight account via email + password.From its SKILL.md

skylight-mcp

MCP server for Skylight Calendar — 111 tools across calendar events, chores & rewards, shared lists, meals, messages & photo albums, photo/video upload, AI auto-creation, and frame/device/member settings.

npm: npmjs.com/package/skylight-mcp
Source: github.com/chrischall/skylight-mcp

Setup

Skylight authenticates with your account email + password (OAuth2 authorization-code flow under the hood — no browser extension or API key needed). Add an env block to .mcp.json (project) or ~/.claude/mcp.json (global):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "skylight": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "skylight-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SKYLIGHT_EMAIL": "[email protected]",
        "SKYLIGHT_PASSWORD": "your-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

The server logs in once at startup, then talks to the Skylight API directly with the returned bearer token (refreshed automatically).

Optional env:

SKYLIGHT_FRAME_ID — pick a frame when your account has more than one (see skylight_list_frames). Otherwise the single frame is auto-discovered.
SKYLIGHT_NAME — friendly label shown in diagnostics (defaults to your email).

Requires a Skylight email + password login — Google/Apple/SSO-only accounts aren't supported.

Tools

Everything is scoped to a frame (your family hub); pass an optional frameId to any tool, or let it auto-resolve.

Notes

skylight_complete_chore marks a chore complete; completing a single occurrence of a recurring chore isn't separately exposed.
skylight_list_chores requires after and before dates (chores are date-scoped).
