## Description
Time and timezone conversion capabilities.

## Tools
Capabilities this server exposes over MCP:

- **create_entities** — Create multiple new entities in the knowledge graph
- **create_relations** — Create multiple new relations between entities in the knowledge graph. Relations should be in active voice
- **add_observations** — Add new observations to existing entities in the knowledge graph
- **delete_entities** — Delete multiple entities and their associated relations from the knowledge graph
- **delete_observations** — Delete specific observations from entities in the knowledge graph
- **delete_relations** — Delete multiple relations from the knowledge graph
- **read_graph** — Read the entire knowledge graph
- **search_nodes** — Search for nodes in the knowledge graph based on a query
- **open_nodes** — Open specific nodes in the knowledge graph by their names

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Install path detected from listing signals. Uses `npx` (confidence: high):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "time": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","@modelcontextprotocol/server-memory"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation

## What the Time MCP server does

The Time MCP server is listed as a reference implementation for time and timezone conversion. Its stated purpose is to let an MCP client access capabilities related to converting times between timezones. The repository describes these servers as examples intended to demonstrate MCP features and SDK usage, not as hardened production services.

The available material does not document the conversion tool names, accepted arguments, supported timezone database, date formats, daylight-saving behavior, or response schema. Those details should be confirmed in the implementation before an agent relies on them for scheduling, reporting, or other time-sensitive workflows.

## How it works

The Time MCP server is used through an MCP client rather than as a standalone feature for end users. The repository explains that its servers are implemented with MCP SDKs and can be configured in clients such as Claude Desktop. MCP provides the connection between the client and the server's exposed tools, allowing an AI application to request supported operations.

The repository's general examples show local servers being launched by package runners and then registered under an `mcpServers` configuration object. No exact launch command or client configuration for the Time MCP server is included in the supplied material, so this listing does not provide an executable installation command.

## Tools and capabilities

The documented capability is time and timezone conversion. The supplied tool inventory contains the following operations instead:

- `create_entities`
- `create_relations`
- `add_observations`
- `delete_entities`
- `delete_observations`
- `delete_relations`
- `read_graph`
- `search_nodes`
- `open_nodes`

These are knowledge-graph operations and do not describe time conversion. They may belong to another reference server or may be associated with incorrect listing metadata. Treat the Time MCP server's actual tool surface as unconfirmed until checked against the source directory or package documentation.

## Limitations and notes

The Time MCP server is presented as an educational reference implementation. The repository warns that reference servers are not production-ready and that developers must evaluate security requirements and add safeguards appropriate to their own threat model and use case.

The provided information does not identify required environment variables, authentication credentials, supported MCP clients for this specific server, a license specific to the Time directory, or a published package name. It also does not establish whether the knowledge-graph tools are actually exposed by Time. The Time MCP server may therefore be suitable for studying MCP integration or validating a client workflow, but its operational contract requires verification before deployment.
