Cursor Date Math timestamp_normalize

How to: Cursor Date Math timestamp_normalize

client:Cursor transport:streamable-http tool:timestamp_normalize

Add Date Math to Cursor

  1. 01

    Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "date-math": {
      "url": "https://date-math.datemath.workers.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Cursor.

  2. 03

    Ask for something timestamp_normalize does. Cursor lists the server's tools on connect and calls timestamp_normalize itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Date Math's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Use .cursor/mcp.json in a project root instead to scope it to that project. Cursor merges both. Cursor docs

Set these first

Date Math will not start until these are set, so timestamp_normalize never becomes available.

  • DATE_MATH_PRIVATE_KEY
  • DATE_MATH_MAX_PRICE

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 14 November 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
