MCP Timezone Planner in Claude.ai and Claude Desktop connectors

Find meeting slots inside everyone's working hours. It converts times between IANA zones with DST read from the ICU data in your Node build, ranks meeting slots where every participant is inside their own working hours, computes the daily overlap and clock changes, and writes .ics files.

No network call and no file besides the .ics you ask for, and that .ics also arrives as a download link rather than landing in a folder next to your other files.

What you get

Warsaw and New York on 09:00 to 17:00 days share 2 hours on 2026-09-10 and 3 hours on 2026-03-16, because the United States moves to daylight time on 8 March and Europe on 29 March. The overlap is computed on a real date, so it says so.

Connect it, no install

https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/connect mints an anonymous token and prints a URL per server, including this one, shaped like https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/timezone/t/<token>. That URL works with no headers: the token is in the path, not in an Authorization field this form does not have.

  1. Open https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/connect and copy the URL printed for MCP Timezone Planner.
  2. There is no config file here: the Add custom connector form asks for a name and a Remote MCP server URL, with an Advanced settings section for an optional OAuth Client ID and Client Secret.
  3. Paste the URL as the Remote MCP server URL. Leave the optional OAuth Client ID and Client Secret blank; this endpoint does not use them.
  4. Click Connect, then turn the connector on for a conversation from the + button, Connectors.

Idle anonymous tokens are swept after 30 days. Since this route has no filesystem, a file MCP Timezone Planner generates comes back as a download link that expires after one hour. A Pro key can replace the token in the same URL and removes the free-tier limits.

Claude.ai and Claude Desktop connectors notes worth knowing first

On an individual Pro or Max plan you add the connector yourself from Customize, Connectors. On Team and Enterprise it is the other way round: only an Owner or Primary Owner can add a custom connector, at Organization settings, Connectors, and members then connect to what the Owner added rather than pasting their own URL.

Free: conversions, overlap, DST and business days unlimited; slots for 3 participants over 5 days, 5 contacts, 3 ics a month. Pro is $19 once, verified offline, and binds to the token after checkout.

Questions

Does this need OAuth?

No. Add custom connector offers an Advanced settings section with an OAuth Client ID and Client Secret, but the connect-by-URL route does not use it. Leave both blank: the token in the URL path is what authenticates.

I am on a Team or Enterprise plan and cannot add a connector.

That is documented, not a bug: on Team and Enterprise, only an Owner or Primary Owner can add a custom connector, at Organization settings, Connectors, Add, Custom, Web. After that, members connect to the URL the Owner added from Customize, Connectors.

Can I use my Pro key instead of the free anonymous token?

Yes. The token segment of the URL from /mcp/connect can be replaced with a Pro key, which removes the free-tier limits on MCP Timezone Planner for that connector.

Why did a generated file come back as a link instead of opening?

The connector runs server-side with no filesystem of its own, so any file MCP Timezone Planner produces is handed back as a download link that expires after one hour, rather than a path on disk.
