Unix timestamps, DST-aware time zone conversion, durations, cron schedules, and holiday countdowns

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Travel, maps & weather

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 9, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • time_now

    The current time: Unix epoch in seconds and milliseconds, ISO 8601, and the local wall-clock time in a given IANA time zone with its current UTC offset and DST status. Use this before any relative date reasoning.

  • convert_timestamp

    Convert a Unix timestamp (seconds or milliseconds; auto-detected unless unit is given) to a human-readable date in a time zone, with ISO 8601, RFC 2822, UTC offset, DST flag, weekday, and a relative phrase like "3 days ago".

  • parse_datetime

    Parse a date/time string (ISO 8601, RFC 2822, HTTP date, SQL "YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss", or a Unix timestamp) into a Unix timestamp and a normalized description. Strings without an offset are interpreted in the given time zone.

  • convert_timezone

    Convert a wall-clock date/time from one IANA time zone to another, correctly across daylight-saving transitions. Returns both sides with offsets, the hour difference at that instant, and whether either zone is on DST.

  • date_duration

    The exact duration between two dates or date-times: calendar years/months/days, plus total days, hours, minutes and seconds, and the number of weekdays (Mon-Fri). Handles leap years and DST via the IANA database.

  • epoch_math

    Add to or subtract from a Unix timestamp in calendar-aware units (years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds) in a time zone, e.g. "now + 30 days" or "1748736543 - 3 months". Returns the resulting timestamp in every format.

  • cron_next_runs

    Explain a 5- or 6-field cron expression in plain English and list its next run times in a time zone (as ISO 8601 and Unix timestamps). Use to answer "when does this cron job run next?" or to validate an expression.

  • days_until

    Countdown to a holiday or to a date: days, hours and minutes remaining, and the next occurrence date. Pass an event slug (e.g. "christmas", "thanksgiving", "easter", "super-bowl") or a date (YYYY-MM-DD). Call with no arguments to list the known events.

Common questions

Is Epoch Calculator safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?
