Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check temporal-mcp every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 2

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

temporal

temporal_peek

Read the current temporal snapshot for a thread WITHOUT advancing state. Use this when you want the gap delta but the call is not the canonical per-turn event.

temporal_tick

Advance the temporal clock for a thread and return a snapshot (now / prev / gap / day_rollover / fresh_thread). Call once per user turn. Pass a stable `thread_key` (e.g. the conversation ID) so gap deltas remain meaningful across page reloads.

temporal-mcp — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can temporal-mcp do?

It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: temporal_peek, temporal_tick. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is temporal-mcp working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 147 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect temporal-mcp?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does temporal-mcp need an API key?

No. temporal-mcp completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is temporal-mcp?

It answers our handshake in 147 ms on average, which is faster than 83% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

How many people use temporal-mcp?

The pypi package temporal-mcp was installed 83 times in the last week. Week over week that is +2%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is temporal-mcp open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 3 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at temporal-mcp.dev, which runs on its operator's own terms.
