Specific implementation and application of the time calculation function
Passage of Time MCP provides a comprehensive set of time calculation functions that are integrated with the language model through a standard API interface.
Key features include:
- Current Time Getting: The current_datetime() function returns the exact timestamp and supports time zone parameters (e.g. Asia/Shanghai)
- time difference calculation: can calculate the time interval between two points in time in minutes, hours, etc.
- time zone conversion: Support for automatic conversion between IANA standard time zones
- real time update: Provides a continuous stream of temporal data through SSE (Server-Sent Events) mode.
The combination of these features enables language modeling:
- Provide accurate schedule suggestions based on the user's time zone
- Maintaining time consistency in dialogues
- Analyzing the temporal patterns of user interactions
- Generate time-sensitive automated workflows
