Model Context Protocol server

Ask any AI assistant for an accurate panchang

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client to the HinduCalendar engine and it answers with the exact tithi, festival dates, muhurta and birth details the HinduCalendar app shows — the same calculations, never an AI guess.

What you can ask

Everyday Hindu-calendar questions, answered by calculation — with dates and times you can trust.

What's the tithi today in Delhi? When is Diwali in 2027? When does Ekadashi end tomorrow? What's today's date in Vikram Samvat? Rahu Kalam today in Mumbai Nakshatra and naam-akshar for a birth on 15 Aug 2025, 10:30, Delhi

Connect it

A standard remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP, no sign-in). Add the endpoint to any client:

The HinduCalendar app
Every number here comes from the same engine the app ships — panchang, festivals, muhurta and kundali, offline, ad-free.
Get the app

Researching history or astronomy?

HinduCalendar matches the app for everyday use. For 10,000 years of positions, eclipses, conjunctions and dating historical panchang references, use its companion server:

Kaalshodh MCP →
JPL DE431 astronomy, −5000 to +5000: positions, eclipses, conjunctions, date search. https://kaalshodh.com/mcp

The two run different engines and can differ by a minute or two near a tithi boundary: HinduCalendar to match the app, Kaalshodh to search history.

Privacy

Answers are computed in memory. No accounts, no sign-in. Nothing you ask — including a birth date, time or place — is stored or logged; server logs record only which tool ran and how long it took. Full details: privacy policy.
