> If you often need timezone conversion, sounds like a `timezones` skill exposing a few lines in a Python script. Boom. No MCP needed. No server needed

okay, but now my agent needs a coding environment / sandbox.

MCP (or tool use in general) solves this without that (extremely tenuous and expensive to do at scale in prd) requirement.

The skill is totally orthogonal here--solving a totally separate problem
