Models consuming projects have no idea what day it is. Three always-on layers from mcplocal plus one from mcpd: - initialize instructions and the begin_session briefing carry '[context] now: <date/time> — project: <name>' (frozen at session start by design); - a get_current_time virtual tool (ungated catalogs only, same pattern as read_prompts); - every tools/call result gets a trailing '[context] now: …' content item at the endpoint send site — the only chokepoint that also covers virtual tools, gate intercepts and failure results, and the layer that keeps a days-old chat session current; - mcpd agent/project chat system blocks append the same line each turn. Time renders as UTC plus an optional local timezone from MCPLOCAL_AMBIENT_TZ (IANA name; both services read it; invalid or unset means UTC only). ~15 tokens per stamp, minute precision.
