What timezone formats does this MCP server support?

The server handles standard IANA timezone identifiers (e.g., America/New_York, Europe/London, Asia/Tokyo). Refer to the documentation for the complete list of supported timezones and any regional abbreviation support.

Can I use this server to schedule tasks or just read cron expressions?

This server evaluates and parses cron expressions—it tells you when a cron job will run next. For actual task scheduling, you'd integrate this with a separate scheduler or job runner.

How do I install and run the MCP time tools server?

Install via npm with `npx @rog0x/mcp-time-tools@1.0.2`. The server uses stdio transport, so it communicates with your MCP client over standard input/output streams.

Does this server handle daylight saving time (DST) transitions?

The server uses standard timezone libraries that account for DST rules. When converting times across timezones, DST is applied according to the target region's current rules.

What timestamp formats are supported—only Unix time?

The server works with Unix timestamps (seconds since epoch). Check the documentation for support of other formats like ISO 8601 or millisecond-precision timestamps.
