Environment / auth
  • APPLE_CALENDAR_ALLOW_WRITES

    Register the mutating tools. Off by default, and the gate decides whether the write tools exist at all rather than merely refusing — an agent with writes off cannot see them.

  • APPLE_CALENDAR_CALENDARS

    Restrict every read and write to these calendars, by name.
