In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Time MCP Server what time is it in Tokyo right now?"
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 Time Server

Description
A Model Context Protocol server that provides time and timezone functionality. This server enables LLMs to get current time information across different timezones.
Features
Get current time in any timezone
List available timezones
Convert times between timezones
Installation
# Using pip
pip install -e .
# Using uv
uv pip install -e .Usage
The server can be used with any MCP-compatible client.

TDQS
Scored across 2 tools
The two tools have clearly distinct purposes: one converts time between timezones, while the other retrieves the current time in a specified timezone. There is no overlap or ambiguity in their functions, making it easy for an agent to select the correct tool based on the task.
Both tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (convert_time and get_current_time), using snake_case throughout. The naming is predictable and readable, with no deviations or mixed conventions.
With only two tools, the server feels thin for a time-related domain. While the tools cover basic operations, there are likely gaps such as scheduling, time arithmetic, or handling date formats that could enhance functionality. A count of 2 is borderline too few for a comprehensive time server.
The tool surface is significantly incomplete for a time server domain. It lacks essential operations like date manipulation, time arithmetic, scheduling, or handling recurring events. Agents may struggle with common time-related tasks beyond simple conversions and current time retrieval.
