Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Zovo Timeline turns dated events into a to-scale or evenly spaced timeline chart with SVG, PDF and CSV downloads. Call generate_timeline once with all events. Dates: YYYY, YYYY-MM, YYYY-MM-DD, month names, or BC years (500 BC or -500). Slashed dates need date_order.

generate_timeline — Generate timeline
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Use this when the user wants a timeline chart, a chronology or a history graphic from dated events, with a file to download. Places events to scale by day count (or at even gaps), stacks labels in rows so they do not overlap, draws spans as bars and eras as bands, and returns SVG, PDF (Letter or A4) and CSV links. Reads YYYY, YYYY-MM, YYYY-MM-DD, month names and BC years. Up to 200 events and 20 eras. Does not convert Julian calendar dates, does not research dates, and refuses ambiguous slashed dates unless date_order is given. Do not use for project schedules with task dependencies.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http zovo-timeline-mcp https://timeline-maker.zovo.one/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add zovo-timeline-mcp --url https://timeline-maker.zovo.one/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable zovo-timeline-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zovo-timeline-mcp": {
      "url": "https://timeline-maker.zovo.one/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zovo-timeline-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://timeline-maker.zovo.one/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start zovo-timeline-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "zovo-timeline-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://timeline-maker.zovo.one/mcp"

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http zovo-timeline-mcp https://timeline-maker.zovo.one/mcp

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zovo-timeline-mcp": {
