Cursor Time convert_time

Add Time to Cursor

1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "time": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-server-time"
      ]
    }
  }
}

2. 02

   Save the file and restart Cursor.

3. 03

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

4. 04

   If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Time'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
