## what it does

tl;dr: two tools, IANA names. Official reference, not a calendar product.

Install

uvx mcp-server-time
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "time": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-server-time"]
    }
  }
}

Override zone with --local-timezone=America/New_York on the Python entrypoint. Docker image mcp/time takes LOCAL_TIMEZONE.

Tools

  • get_current_time — timezone (IANA)
  • convert_time — source_timezone, time (HH:MM 24h), target_timezone
