概要

What is MCP Current Datetime Server?

It is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides the current datetime in ISO 8601 format via a single tool called get-current-datetime. It supports both stdio and HTTP transport layers, making it suitable for integration with MCP-compatible clients like Claude Desktop and VS Code Copilot.

How to use MCP Current Datetime Server?

Install Node.js v16 or higher, then run npm install and npm run build to build the project. Start the server with node build/index.js for default stdio mode, or add --http to run an HTTP server on port 3000 that accepts JSON‑RPC 2.0 POST requests at / or /mcp. Integration examples for Claude Desktop and VS Code Copilot are provided in the README.
