What you need
| Setting | Needed | What it is |
|---|---|---|
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable, secret | Optional | An OAuth refresh token you already hold. Supply this and no password is needed — the login is skipped entirely. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable | Optional | Skylight account email. Pair with SKYLIGHT_PASSWORD for direct login. Needed only if you are not supplying SKYLIGHT_REFRESH_TOKEN. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable, secret | Optional | Skylight account password — required iff SKYLIGHT_EMAIL is set. Needed only if you are not supplying SKYLIGHT_REFRESH_TOKEN. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable | Optional | Optional: pick a specific Skylight frame when the account has more than one. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable | Optional | Friendly account name used in startup logs. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable | Optional | Set to false to disable the on-disk token cache and re-authenticate on every process start. Defaults to enabled. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable | Optional | Absolute path for the token cache file. Defaults to $MCP_DATA_DIR/.skylight-mcp/tokens.json. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable | Optional | Override the API base (default https://app.ourskylight.com/api). The auth origin is derived from it, so pointing this elsewhere moves the login flow too — and the new host must be added to the registration’s egress allowlist, or every call |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable, secret | Optional | Optional: an app-specific password from appleid.apple.com, used only by skylight_link_apple_calendar. Env-only by design — the tool takes no password argument, so the credential never passes through the model or the transcript. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable | Optional | Optional: the Apple ID email skylight_link_apple_calendar links; the tool's email argument overrides it. |
SKYLIGHT_Environment variable | Optional | Optional: directories that the photo-upload, event-import-from-photo and avatar tools may read files from (several separated by ':', or ';' on Windows; '~' allowed). Any other path is refused. Unset: ~/Pictures and ~/Downloads, or only $MCP |
