FAQ from MCP Server with UTC Datetime Tool

What does the `current_utc_datetime` tool return?

It returns the current date and time in UTC, formatted as an ISO 8601 string (e.g., 2023-10-27T10:30:00Z).

How do I run MCP Server with UTC Datetime Tool locally?

Ensure Go is installed, run go mod tidy, then go build -o mcp-datetime-server followed by ./mcp-datetime-server. The server prints a start message and waits for requests.

What transport does this MCP server use?

It uses stdio transport, which is configured by pointing the AI assistant to the compiled executable’s absolute path.

Does the server require any authentication or environment variables?

No. The README shows an empty "env": {} in the configuration example and does not mention any authentication requirements.

Can I use MCP Server with UTC Datetime Tool with assistants other than Cursor?

The README only provides configuration instructions for Cursor. Other MCP‑compatible assistants should work if they support stdio servers, but the documentation does not cover them.
