Time MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Time MCP?
Time MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package time-mcp was installed 1 932 times last week.
How do I connect Time 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 runs locally, so the command pulls time-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Time MCP?
The npm package time-mcp was installed 1 932 times in the last week. Week over week that is +5%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Time MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript, 72 stars on GitHub and 4 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
