About TIME-MCP

What is TIME-MCP: Precision Timekeeping & Enterprise-Grade Reliability?

TIME-MCP is a dedicated server solution designed to deliver precise, timezone-aware datetime information in real-time. Built as a Claude Model Configuration Protocol (MCP) integration, it ensures enterprise-level reliability for applications requiring accurate temporal data across global regions. The system leverages Python's zoneinfo module for comprehensive timezone handling, providing standardized outputs in ISO format through simple JSON responses.

How to Use TIME-MCP: Precision Timekeeping & Enterprise-Grade Reliability?

Implementation follows three core steps: installation, server deployment, and API utilization. Begin by cloning the repository and setting up a virtual environment with uv. After installation, launch the server via python -m src.time_mcp.server. Access the primary tool get_current_time by specifying an IANA timezone parameter—defaulting to UTC when unspecified—to retrieve instantaneous datetime data.
