What is the io.github.yokingma/time-mcp MCP server?
The Time MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that provides LLMs with time awareness capabilities including current time retrieval, timezone conversion, and calendar information. It exposes tools for getting timestamps, calculating relative time, and querying week/month data.
This server enables AI assistants to understand and work with time-related information accurately. It's useful when you need Claude or other LLMs to answer questions about current time, convert between timezones, calculate dates, or provide time-aware context in conversations.
