For agents

Connect your agent

Hackalendar speaks MCP. Point the agent you already use at it, and it can search the curated catalogue, read the deadlines and hand you the registration link — with the human-written pick notes in the loop.

Cursor, Windsurf, or anything that reads mcp.json

What it can do

  • search_hackathons — Browse upcoming events — filter by text, city, theme or mode.
  • get_hackathon — One event in full: description, venue, dates, calendar link.
  • upcoming_deadlines — Registrations closing soon, soonest first.

Read-only, by design. The connection browses what a human curator published; it cannot register, write, or touch anything. Signing up happens on the organiser’s own page — your agent gets the URL and the deadline, you keep the pen.
