SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Timezone-aware time conversions and current-time lookups across IANA timezones to support scheduling and coordination.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Convert times between IANA timezones.
  • Retrieve the current time in any IANA timezone.
  • Automatically handle daylight saving transitions and resolve city names to canonical time zones.
  • Support multi-timezone comparisons for coordinating international meetings.

Quick Start

Convert 3:00 PM in America/New_York to Europe/London.

Frequently Asked Questions about time-conversion

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert times between IANA timezones with daylight saving time accuracy?▼

Timezone conversion between IANA timezones automatically handles daylight saving transitions to produce DST-aware results. It maps city names to canonical time zones and calculates accurate offsets for scheduling across multiple zones.

How do I get the current time in a specific IANA timezone?▼

Retrieving the current time for any location requires mapping the input to a canonical IANA timezone name. The tool uses the get_current_time MCP tool to return the present time accurately adjusted for local DST rules.

What is the best way to coordinate international meetings across multiple timezones?▼

Coordinating international meetings across multiple timezones requires comparing IANA timezones with DST-aware results. The tool resolves city names to canonical time zones and applies accurate time conversions to support multi-timezone scheduling.

Does this time conversion tool require an MCP server configuration?▼

Time conversion relies on an MCP server named time configured in .claude/mcp-config.json. It uses get_current_time and convert_time MCP tools to execute timezone conversions and produce structured, DST-aware outputs.

Can I use city names instead of canonical IANA timezone names for time conversion?▼

City names are automatically resolved to canonical IANA timezone names for time conversion. This mapping allows the tool to apply the correct daylight saving time rules and return accurate results for any specified location.

Why do my timezone conversions fail during daylight saving time transitions?▼

Timezone conversions during daylight saving time transitions require DST-aware calculations using canonical IANA timezone names. Mapping inputs to IANA names and using dedicated MCP tools ensures structured outputs reflect accurate offset changes.
