A versatile personal assistant AI agent built with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that helps with calendar, tasks, emails, and more.

This project is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides a set of tools for a personal assistant agent. It can be integrated with MCP clients like Claude for Desktop to give AI assistants the ability to:

• Manage calendar events
• Track tasks and to-dos
• Read and send emails
• Search the web and retrieve information
• Control smart home devices

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Python 3.10 or higher is required for the MCP SDK. The server will not work with earlier Python versions.

• Python 3.10+
• MCP SDK 1.2.0+
• Required Python packages (see requirements.txt)

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/mcp-pa-ai-agent.git
cd mcp-pa-ai-agent

2. Ensure you have Python 3.10+:

python --version

3. If your system Python is older than 3.10, set up a compatible environment:

# Using conda
conda create -n mcp-env python=3.10
conda activate mcp-env

# OR using venv (if Python 3.10+ is installed elsewhere)
python3.10 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

4. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

5. Configure environment variables by copying the example file:

cp .env.example .env

6. Edit the .env file with your API credentials and settings.

Start the MCP server with:

python mcp_server.py

The server will start and listen for MCP client connections.

1. Install Claude for Desktop

2. Configure Claude for Desktop to use this MCP server by editing the configuration file at:

   • MacOS/Linux: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
   • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

3. Add the following configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "personal-assistant": {
      "command": "/path/to/python",
      "args": [
        "/absolute/path/to/mcp-pa-ai-agent/mcp_server.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

If you're using a virtual environment, make sure to point to the Python executable in that environment.

4. Restart Claude for Desktop

• get_events: Retrieve upcoming calendar events
• create_event: Schedule a new calendar event

• list_tasks: View all tasks or filter by status
• add_task: Create a new task
• update_task_status: Mark tasks as pending, in-progress, or completed

• get_emails: List recent emails from your inbox
• read_email: View the full content of a specific email
• send_email: Compose and send a new email

• web_search: Search the web for information
• get_weather: Get current weather information
• get_news: Retrieve latest news articles

• list_devices: View all smart home devices
• control_device: Control smart home devices (lights, thermostats, etc.)
• get_device_state: Get detailed information about a device's current state

The server requires various API keys and credentials to access different services:

• Google API: For calendar and email functionality (OAuth2 credentials)
• Weather API: For weather information
• News API: For news retrieval
• Home Assistant: For smart home control

Refer to the .env.example file for all configurable options.

If you see an error like:

Error: Python 3.10 or higher is required for the MCP server.

You need to upgrade your Python version or use a virtual environment with Python 3.10+.

If you encounter problems installing the MCP SDK:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement mcp>=1.2.0

Make sure you're using Python 3.10+ and pip is updated:

pip install --upgrade pip

To add new functionality to the server, you can:

1. Create a new module in the modules/ directory
2. Implement functions with the @mcp.tool() decorator
3. Import your module in mcp_server.py
