Configuration
Optionally set a timezone by creating ~/.pi/agent/timestamps.json:
{
"timeZone": "America/Los_Angeles"
}
Any IANA timezone works (e.g. America/New_York, Europe/London, Asia/Tokyo). Omit the file to use your system default.

The widget and timer work automatically. Use /timestamps to browse the full message timeline:
