# Time MCP Server A Model Context Protocol server that provides time and timezone conversion capabilities. This server enables LLMs to get current time information and perform timezone conversions using IANA timezone names, with automatic system timezone detection. ### Available Tools - `get_current_time` - Get current time in a specific timezone or system timezone. - Required arguments: - `timezone` (string): IANA timezone name (e.g., 'America/New_York', 'Europe/London') - `convert_time` - Convert time between timezones. - Required arguments: - `source_timezone` (string): Source IANA timezone name - `time` (string): Time in 24-hour format (HH:MM) - `target_timezone` (string): Target IANA timezone name ## Installation ### Using uv (recommended) When using [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) no specific installation is needed. We will use [`uvx`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/tools/) to directly run *mcp-server-time*. ### Using PIP Alternatively you can install `mcp-server-time` via pip: ```bash pip install mcp-server-time ``` After installation, you can run it as a script using: ```bash python -m mcp_server_time ``` ## Configuration ### Configure for Claude.app Add to your Claude settings: <details> <summary>Using uvx</summary> ```json "mcpServers": { "time": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["mcp-server-time"] } } ``` </details> <details> <summary>Using docker</summary> ```json "mcpServers": { "time": { "command": "docker", "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "mcp/time"] } } ``` </details> <details> <summary>Using pip installation</summary> ```json "mcpServers": { "time": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "mcp_server_time"] } } ``` </details> ### Configure for Zed Add to your Zed settings.json: <details> <summary>Using uvx</summary> ```json "context_servers": [ "mcp-server-time": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["mcp-server-time"] } ], ``` </details> <details> <summary>Using pip installation</summary> ```json "context_servers": { "mcp-server-time": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "mcp_server_time"] } }, ``` </details> ### Customization - System Timezone By default, the server automatically detects your system's timezone. You can override this by adding the argument `--local-timezone` to the `args` list in the configuration. Example: ```json { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "mcp_server_time", "--local-timezone=America/New_York"] } ``` ## Example Interactions 1. Get current time: ```json { "name": "get_current_time", "arguments": { "timezone": "Europe/Warsaw" } } ``` Response: ```json { "timezone": "Europe/Warsaw", "datetime": "2024-01-01T13:00:00+01:00", "is_dst": false } ``` 2. Convert time between timezones: ```json { "name": "convert_time", "arguments": { "source_timezone": "America/New_York", "time": "16:30", "target_timezone": "Asia/Tokyo" } } ``` Response: ```json { "source": { "timezone": "America/New_York", "datetime": "2024-01-01T12:30:00-05:00", "is_dst": false }, "target": { "timezone": "Asia/Tokyo", "datetime": "2024-01-01T12:30:00+09:00", "is_dst": false }, "time_difference": "+13.0h", } ``` ## Debugging You can use the MCP inspector to debug the server. For uvx installations: ```bash npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uvx mcp-server-time ``` Or if you've installed the package in a specific directory or are developing on it: ```bash cd path/to/servers/src/time npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv run mcp-server-time ``` ## Examples of Questions for Claude 1. "What time is it now?" (will use system timezone) 2. "What time is it in Tokyo?" 3. "When it's 4 PM in New York, what time is it in London?" 4. "Convert 9:30 AM Tokyo time to New York time" ## Build Docker build: ```bash cd src/time docker build -t mcp/time . ``` ## Contributing We encourage contributions to help expand and improve mcp-server-time.
