Overview

Time MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that provides time-related capabilities, enabling LLMs to access current time information and convert times between different timezones. This server is implemented in Swift using the MCP Swift SDK.

To use Time MCP Server, you can install it via a one-line installer or build it from source. After installation, you can use command line tools to get the current time or convert time between timezones.

  • Current Time Queries: Retrieve the current time in any specified timezone. - Time Zone Conversions: Convert time between different timezones. - Daylight Saving Time Information: Check if a timezone is currently observing DST. - Time Difference Calculation: Calculate the time difference between two timezones.
  1. Scheduling international meetings across different timezones.
  2. Planning travel by checking local times at destinations.
  3. Coordinating remote work hours with international teams.
  4. Setting up global events with accurate local times.
  5. Managing time-sensitive operations effectively.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "time-mcp-server-okooo5km": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-time-mcp-server-okooo5km"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "time-mcp-server-okooo5km": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-time-mcp-server-okooo5km"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "time-mcp-server-okooo5km": {
      "command": "npx",
