MCP Server · Developer Tools

Time

Get the current time and do timezone conversions. Stops the agent from hallucinating today's date — which it absolutely will, otherwise.

Tier 1 sealed by curl

Time exists because models hallucinate the date. That's not a knock — it's a real failure mode that breaks calendaring, scheduling, and any 'is this stale' decision. This server gives the agent a real clock and timezone-aware conversions. One line in your config, zero more hallucinated Tuesdays.
