About

Provides the current date in multiple formats (e.g., European, ISO, US) via a simple MCP tool.

README

Ein einfacher MCP-Server mit STDIO-Transport, der das aktuelle Datum in verschiedenen Formaten zurückgibt.

Installation

npm install
npm run build

Verwendung

# Server starten (lauscht auf STDIO)
npm start

# Entwicklungsmodus mit automatischem Neustart
npm run dev

Als MCP-Server konfigurieren

Füge in deiner MCP-Konfigurationsdatei (cline_mcp_settings.json oder ähnlich) hinzu:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "date-today": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/pfad/zum/projekt/date-today-mcp/dist/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Oder für den Entwicklungsmodus direkt mit tsx:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "date-today": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["tsx", "/pfad/zum/projekt/date-today-mcp/src/index.ts"]
    }
  }
}

Hinweis zu STDIO: Der Server kommuniziert über stdin/stdout per JSON-RPC. Es darf nichts auf stdout geschrieben werden, deshalb erfolgt das Logging ausschließlich auf stderr.

Tool: get_today_date

Gibt das aktuelle Datum zurück mit konfigurierbarem Format.
