mcp-simple-timeserverSimple solution to give Claude ability to check current time via MCP

mcp-simple-timeserver is a simple MCP server that provides Claude with the ability to check the current time. It was created to address Anthropic's design decision to deprive Claude of timestamps for messages sent by the user in claude.ai or the current time in general. The server offers various tools, including get_local_time, get_utc, get_current_time, calculate_time_distance, get_holidays, and is_holiday. These tools provide accurate time information, support for different locations and timezones, and calendar conversions. The server uses NTP time servers for accurate time and falls back to local server time if NTP is unavailable. The get_current_time tool supports location parameters, allowing users to get local time anywhere in the world, and also accepts calendar parameters for different calendar formats. The calculate_time_distance tool calculates the duration between two dates or times. The server provides public holidays and checks if a specific date is a holiday in a given country or city.
