[Bug] Google Calendar MCP: guestsCanModify field missing from event responses
Bug Description
Description:
The guestsCanModify field is absent from all events returned by both list_events and get_event — including events where the authenticated user is the organizer and could have set the field themselves.
Expected behavior:
When guestsCanModify is set to true on a Google Calendar event, the field should appear in the MCP response (e.g., "guestsCanModify": true). When false, it can be omitted (the Google Calendar API omits it when false by default).
Actual behavior:
guestsCanModify is absent from 100% of events across a 30-day fetch (~hundreds of events), including organizer-owned events. Querying list_events and get_event for the same event both return no guestsCanModify field.
Impact:
Any tool using this field to determine whether the authenticated user can modify an event (a common pattern) will incorrectly treat all non-organizer events as read-only, even when the organizer has granted guests modify access.
Steps to reproduce:
Create an event and enable "Guests can modify event"
Call list_events or get_event for that event
Observe that guestsCanModify is absent from the response
Environment: claude.ai Google Calendar MCP connector (mcp__claude_ai_Google_Calendar)
