This is a helper that connects your AI assistant to Clockify, the app where you track your working hours. Once it is set up, you can ask your AI questions about your time entries, projects, and reports in plain English instead of clicking around. It is handy for anyone who has to fill in timesheets, run reports, or keep an eye on where the hours go.

What is an MCP server? The 30-second version

On its own, your AI can only chat with you. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to an app, and this one connects it to Clockify. So when you ask your AI something about your tracked hours, it passes the question to this helper, the helper talks to Clockify, and the answer comes back to you in the chat.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI a question, like what you worked on last week. The AI sends that request to this helper, which logs into Clockify using your API key. The helper fetches the right data, such as time entries, projects, or a report. Then the AI turns it into a normal answer for you. If you turn on write mode, the helper can also add or change time entries for you.
