Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@mcp-epochswhat's the current epoch time?"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
mcp-epochs
mcp-name: io.github.daedalus/mcp-epochs
MCP tool that provides current Unix timestamp (epochs) to LLMs.
Install
pip install mcp-epochsRelated MCP server: Time MCP Server
Usage
mcp-epochsThis runs the MCP server with STDIO transport. The server provides a get_unix_time tool.

get_unix_time()
Returns the current Unix timestamp as a dictionary with the following keys:
unix_time(int): Current Unix timestamp in seconds since epoch.unix_time_ms(int): Current Unix timestamp in milliseconds since epoch.iso8601(str): Current UTC time in ISO 8601 format (e.g., "2026-03-26T21:30:00Z").
run_server()
Starts the MCP server using STDIO transport for local desktop MCP clients.
