Question: is it possible to add clock time to the moves in a Lichess study?
On the weekend in an OTB tournament I wrote down the clock time every few moves. I have added my game moves to a Lichess study but would like to add the clock times to the study.

Yes, by importing a PGN with the right clock annotations.
If you want to see how they should be written, go to any lichess game, share & export and download annotated.
You'll see each move is annotated with the clock, for example:

d4 { [%clk 0:00:30] } 1... Nf6 { [%clk 0:00:30] } 2. Bg5 { [%clk 0:00:29] } ...

You should mark your PGN that way and the study will put the clock for you.
I think if you only annotate a few moves instead of all of them it also works (the clock will only update in those moves though, make sure to add the initial clocks on move 1 with the initial time control).

The way I do this is by entering all the moves in a study and in the comments, add clock times. Then I export and bring the PGN into a text editor and do a copy-and-replace to turn "{ " into "{ [%clk ", and "} " into "] }". It seems to make things go a little faster for me. (Then of course re-import to the study to have the times converted properly by lichess.)
