A simple MCP server that exposes datetime information to agentic systems and chat REPLs
Components
Resources
The server implements a simple datetime:// URI scheme for accessing the current date/time in a given timezone, for example:
datetime://Africa/Freetown/now datetime://Europe/London/now datetime://America/New_York/now
Tools
The server exposes a tool to get the current local time in the system timezone:
>>> get_current_time() "The current time is 2024-12-18 19:59:36"

Questions
What is the Timeserver MCP server?
A simple MCP server that exposes datetime information to agentic systems and chat REPLs
What tools does Timeserver expose?
1 in total: 1 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is Timeserver safe to connect to an agent?
The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.
What credentials does Timeserver need?
No credential environment variables were found in its source, so it appears to need none.
How does Timeserver run?
It speaks stdio, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on PyPI as mcp-timeserver.
How current is this page?
The grade is for one exact copy of the source (53db996a1a99), read on 2026-10-08. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
