Configuration

First, ensure you have the uv executable installed. If not, you can install it by following the instructions here.

1. Open the Claude Desktop configuration file located at:

   • On macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
   • On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add the following:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-timeplus": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-timeplus"],
      "env": {
        "TIMEPLUS_HOST": "<timeplus-host>",
        "TIMEPLUS_PORT": "<timeplus-port>",
        "TIMEPLUS_USER": "<timeplus-user>",
        "TIMEPLUS_PASSWORD": "<timeplus-password>",
        "TIMEPLUS_SECURE": "false",
        "TIMEPLUS_VERIFY": "true",
        "TIMEPLUS_CONNECT_TIMEOUT": "30",
        "TIMEPLUS_SEND_RECEIVE_TIMEOUT": "30",
        "TIMEPLUS_READ_ONLY": "false",
        "TIMEPLUS_KAFKA_CONFIG": "{\"bootstrap.servers\":\"a.aivencloud.com:28864\", \"sasl.mechanism\":\"SCRAM-SHA-256\",\"sasl.username\":\"avnadmin\", \"sasl.password\":\"thePassword\",\"security.protocol\":\"SASL_SSL\",\"enable.ssl.certificate.verification\":\"false\"}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Update the environment variables to point to your own Timeplus service.

3. Restart Claude Desktop to apply the changes.

You can also try this MCP server with other MCP clients, such as 5ire.

Development

1. In test-services directory run docker compose up -d to start a Timeplus Proton server. You can also download it via curl https://install.timeplus.com/oss | sh, then start with ./proton server.

2. Add the following variables to a .env file in the root of the repository.

TIMEPLUS_HOST=localhost
TIMEPLUS_PORT=8123
TIMEPLUS_USER=default
TIMEPLUS_PASSWORD=
TIMEPLUS_SECURE=false
TIMEPLUS_VERIFY=true
TIMEPLUS_CONNECT_TIMEOUT=30
TIMEPLUS_SEND_RECEIVE_TIMEOUT=30
TIMEPLUS_READ_ONLY=false
TIMEPLUS_KAFKA_CONFIG={"bootstrap.servers":"a.aivencloud.com:28864", "sasl.mechanism":"SCRAM-SHA-256","sasl.username":"avnadmin", "sasl.password":"thePassword","security.protocol":"SASL_SSL","enable.ssl.certificate.verification":"false"}

3. Run uv sync to install the dependencies. Then do source .venv/bin/activate.

4. For easy testing, you can run mcp dev mcp_timeplus/mcp_server.py to start the MCP server. Click the "Connect" button to connect the UI with the MCP server, then switch to the "Tools" tab to run the available tools.

5. To build the Docker image, run docker build -t mcp_timeplus ..
