About

A Model Context Protocol server that provides time and timezone conversion capabilities. This server enables LLMs to get current time information and perform timezone conversions using IANA timezone names, with automatic system timezone detection.

Tools

get_current_time

Get current time in a specific timezone or system timezone.

  • timezone (string): IANA timezone name (e.g., 'America/New_York', 'Europe/London')

convert_time

Convert time between timezones.

  • source_timezone (string): Source IANA timezone name
  • time (string): Time in 24-hour format (HH:MM)
  • target_timezone (string): Target IANA timezone name

Use Cases

  • Scheduling — "What time is it in Tokyo right now?"
  • Meeting planning — "If it's 3 PM in New York, what time is it in London?"
  • Deadline tracking — "How many hours until the deadline in PST?"
  • Global coordination — "Find a meeting time that works for team members in 3 timezones"
