Overview

The MCP Time Server is a sophisticated Python-based microservice designed to provide advanced time-related utilities across different timezones. It offers robust functionality for retrieving current times and converting times between various global timezones.

Project Details

• Version: 0.1.1
• Python Compatibility: Python 3.11+

Features

• Current Time Retrieval: Get the current time for any IANA timezone
• Time Zone Conversion: Convert times between different time zones
• Comprehensive Validation: Robust input validation using Pydantic models
• Async Server Architecture: Built with asyncio for efficient performance
• Flexible Configuration: Configurable through environment variables and config files
