Liturgical Calendar Skill

Overview

Pass an integer month to fetch Catholic celebrations for the current year. Each response includes the event rank, liturgical season, vestment color, and whether the date is a holy day of obligation. Paid plans can specify custom years and receive additional lectionary cycles, psalter weeks, and season boundary dates.

The tool

Once your client is connected to the VerveKit server, this appears in its tool list as LiturgicalCalendarSkill. It is read-only and open-world — it fetches and never mutates anything on your side — so most clients call it without asking you to confirm.

Tool call

{
  "name": "LiturgicalCalendarSkill",
  "arguments": {}
}

Connecting

One server URL covers every skill in the catalog, including this one. Authorization is OAuth: the client opens a browser once, and there is no key to paste into a config file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vervekit": {
      "url": "https://api.vervekit.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Per-client setup — Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT — is on the MCP setup page.

Arguments

These are the properties on the tool's inputSchema, so a well-behaved client validates them before the call is made. Premium arguments are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them.

Argument	Type	Description
`month`Optional	integer	The month to get Liturgical Calendar data for (default: current month) range 1–12
`year`OptionalPremium	integer	The year to get Liturgical Calendar data for (default: current year) range 1900–2100

What the model gets back

The result carries a structuredContent object matching the tool's declared outputSchema, so a client reads fields without parsing prose. status is "ok" and error is null on success; a null field means the value was not available for that input, not that the call failed.

Failure modes

Errors come back as tool errors carrying a sentence the model can act on, not a bare status code. Error handling covers the full list.

Status	What it means
`400` / `422`	The arguments did not validate. The message names the offending one.
`401`	The OAuth session is invalid or expired — reconnect the server.
`403`	Blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Never a bad identity.
`404`	This skill is not part of VerveKit. Check the catalog.
`429`	Out of credits, or a brief rate limit. The message tells them apart.

A call costs 2 credits each time the tool actually runs; a model that reasons about the tool without calling it costs nothing.

Use cases

Church Bulletin Publishing: When preparing weekly parish bulletins, church administrators pull upcoming feast ranks and vestment colors to format worship aids accurately.
Daily Missal Apps: Mobile prayer apps display daily commemorations and required vestment colors to orient users within the current Catholic season.
Sacristy Vestment Planning: To prepare altar paraments and priest vestments ahead of time, sacristans check the required liturgical color for upcoming celebrations.
Catholic School Scheduling: School administrators schedule all-school masses by checking which upcoming dates qualify as holy days of obligation.
