A simple MCP server that provides waiting functionality to pause until other tasks finish.
## Features
- Wait for a specified number of seconds
- Progress reporting during waiting
- Simple to use via CLI or as an HTTP server with SSE

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-wait": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [

"@automation-ai-labs/mcp-wait"
],
"env": {
"TRANSPORT_TYPE": "stdio"
}
}
}
}
```

```
### Manual Installation

## Usage
### CLI Testing

## Wait Tool
The server provides a simple `wait` tool that accepts a `seconds` parameter:

"seconds": 5
}
```
This will wait for 5 seconds and report progress during the wait.
