Sleep MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides a simple sleep/wait tool. Useful for adding delays between operations, such as waiting between API calls or testing eventually consistent systems.

Available Tools

  • sleep: Wait for a specified duration in milliseconds

Installation

git clone https://github.com/Garoth/sleep-mcp.git
npm install

Configuration

Add to your Cline MCP settings file (ex. ~/.config/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sleep": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/sleep-server/build/index.js"],
      "disabled": false,
      "autoApprove": [],
      "timeout": 300
    }
  }
}

Note: The timeout parameter specifies the maximum time (in milliseconds) that the MCP server will wait for a response before timing out. This is particularly important for the sleep tool, as setting a timeout that's shorter than your sleep duration will cause the operation to fail. Make sure your timeout value is always greater than the maximum sleep duration you plan to use.

Development
