Before you call either

Cozi Family Organizer

  1. Use official read-only feeds for calendar visibility.
  2. Make edits in the originating calendar and allow for the refresh delay.

Nylas Calendar and Scheduler API

  1. Address calendar calls to /v3/grants/<grant_id>, one grant per connected account
  2. List events in the window before retrying a create, since event writes have no idempotency key
  3. Point the MCP client at mcp.eu.nylas.com if the application lives in the EU region
  4. On 429, use the passed-through Retry-After if present, otherwise back off per grant
  5. Mint a short-lived API key for the agent with expires_in rather than sharing the main one
