Project description

MCP Time Server

An MCP Server that provides a tool to get the current time with optional timezone support.

Features

  • Provides a get_current_time tool to retrieve the current time
  • Supports optional timezone parameter
  • Simple and lightweight implementation
  • Built using the Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Installation

pip install mcp-time-server

Usage

Running the Server

mcp-time-server

This will start the MCP Server using the STDIO transport, which is suitable for local process communication.

Using the get_current_time Tool

The server exposes a single tool called get_current_time that can be used by MCP clients.

Parameters

  • timezone (optional): A timezone string, e.g., "Asia/Shanghai", "America/New_York"
    • If not provided, the system's default timezone will be used

Return Value

A formatted string representing the current time in the format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.SSSSSS TIMEZONE

Examples

# Get current time in system default timezone
result = await mcp_client.call_tool("get_current_time")
# Example output: "2023-12-25 13:45:30.123456 EST"

# Get current time in a specific timezone
result = await mcp_client.call_tool("get_current_time", timezone="Asia/Shanghai")
# Example output: "2023-12-26 02:45:30.123456 CST"
