The Time tool provides time and timezone conversion capabilities for Large Language Models (LLMs). It allows LLMs to get the current time in a specific timezone and convert time between different timezones.

Question 4

How do I install the Time tool?

Accepted Answer

You can install the Time tool using either `uv` or `pip`. `uv` is recommended, using `uvx` to run the server directly. Alternatively, you can install it using `pip install time-mcp-local` and run it with `python -m time-mcp-local`.

Yes, by default the server automatically detects the system timezone. However, you can override this by adding the argument `--local-timezone` to the args list in the configuration (e.g., `--local-timezone=America/New_York`).
