Odel charges nothing per call. The publisher may charge for its own service.

Runs locally over stdio

This server isn't hosted — your MCP client launches it from a package registry. Use one of the commands below, or drop the config into your client (e.g. Claude Desktop).

schoolpass-mcp

MCP server for SchoolPass — read AND change your child's school arrival & dismissal from a parent account. Talks to the SchoolPass REST API used by the SchoolPass web and mobile apps, authenticating server-side with your own parent email and password (no browser, no extension).

Developed and maintained by AI (Claude Code). Use at your own discretion.

Parent-scoped: read tools plus a confirm-gated dismissal-change write/cancel.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
schoolpass_healthcheckReachability + authentication, reported separately.
schoolpass_whoamiThe parent identity the server signed in as.
schoolpass_list_studentsYour linked students — name, grade, home dismissal location, aftercare.
schoolpass_get_profileThe parent account profile.
schoolpass_list_driversAuthorized pickup drivers; include_carpool: true adds their carpools (other families' contact/vehicle fields dropped unless view: "full").
schoolpass_get_calendarA student's arrival/dismissal calendar over a date range.
schoolpass_list_pickup_changesPickup/dismissal changes for a student on a date.
schoolpass_list_dismissal_locationsThe school's dismissal locations, with ids.
schoolpass_get_school_infoBasic school info and per-school config.
schoolpass_submit_dismissal_changeSubmit a dismissal/arrival change (confirm-gated: preview + single-use confirmToken).
schoolpass_cancel_dismissal_changeCancel a change, back to default (confirm-gated: preview + confirmToken).

When the server can list your students at start, student_id on schoolpass_get_calendar and schoolpass_list_pickup_changes is published as a string enum of their names (it was an integer id before). The names are the schema's contract; the server still accepts the integer student id from schoolpass_list_students, so a client that does not validate against the schema keeps working.

Configuration

Env varRequiredNotes
SCHOOLPASS_EMAILyesYour SchoolPass parent account email.
SCHOOLPASS_PASSWORDyesYour SchoolPass password.
SCHOOLPASS_SCHOOL_CODEyesThe numeric school id (the AppCode / appCode value; e.g. 1183).
SCHOOLPASS_API_HOSTnoRegional API host override (default busapi-east16-ss.school-pass.net). Must be an https *.school-pass.net host — the password is sent there, so http:// or any other domain is refused.
SCHOOLPASS_TIMEZONEnoThe school's IANA timezone (e.g. America/New_York), used for the "today" default of the calendar and pickup-change reads. Defaults to the server's local zone; set it when the server runs elsewhere (a hosted server runs in UTC, so evening defaults would otherwise point at tomorrow).
MCP_CONFIRM_MODEnoHow the two writes confirm on a client that cannot show a prompt: ask-user (default — preview + token, the user approves in chat), auto (the model may use the token after reviewing the preview), or refuse.
MCP_CONFIRM_ELICITATIONnooff never shows a confirmation prompt, so every client gets the MCP_CONFIRM_MODE behaviour. Set it for a client that says it can show prompts but never does (the write hangs — opencode 2.0.x). Default on; any other value is treated as on, with a warning on stderr.
MCP_CONFIRM_TTL_SECONDSnoHow long a confirm token stays valid (default 600).
MCP_CONFIRM_SECRETnoHMAC key for confirm tokens; set only if tokens must survive a restart. On mcp-host the host supplies a stable per-child key (MCP_HOST_CONFIRM_SECRET) and spent tokens are recorded under MCP_DATA_DIR, so an approval survives an idle restart.

Finding your school id and region host: sign into your school's <school>.school-pass.net portal, open the new SchoolPass app, and read appCode (the id) and apiUrl (the host) from its browser localStorage.

Notes

  • Parent scope only. A parent token cannot reach admin routes (visitor management, carline operations, reports, bus routing); those return 403.
  • Never retry a rejected login. SchoolPass fronts its login with reCAPTCHA; repeated failures can get the account challenged. A password SchoolPass refuses (400/401) is tried once per process: later calls return the same error without contacting SchoolPass until the configured credentials change or the server restarts. A CDN/WAF block page (CloudFront, Cloudflare, …) is not a refusal: it is reported as an edge block, never latched, and never spends or discards the stored session.
  • No credentials, still boots. The server starts without configuration and answers tools/list; the config error surfaces on the first tool call.

Without the server: curl

The SchoolPass API is reachable server-side, so a one-off shell read needs no MCP process — see the bundled schoolpass-curl skill (skills/schoolpass-curl/) for a curl + jq recipe set.

Development

bash
npm install
npm test            # tsc typecheck + unit + boot tests
npm run build       # tsc + esbuild bundle
node --env-file=.env scripts/live-check.mjs   # live read-only check (needs .env)
