time-utils

name	time-utils
description	Compute and format dates/times in arbitrary timezones using a small set of bundled bash scripts. Use when the user asks about "what time is it", "current time in <city>", date math, or timezone conversions.

Time utilities

This skill bundles small bash scripts that shell out to date for timezone-aware answers without the model having to reason about offsets.

When to use

• The user asks for the current time in a specific timezone (e.g. "what time is it in Tokyo?")
• The user wants a date formatted in a specific way
• The user needs a relative time (e.g. "what's the date 3 days from now?")

Scripts

scripts/now.sh [TZ]

Prints the current time in the given IANA timezone (default UTC). Example:

bash scripts/now.sh America/Los_Angeles

scripts/add.sh DAYS [TZ]

Prints a date DAYS days from now in the given timezone. DAYS can be negative. Example:

bash scripts/add.sh 3 Europe/London

Tips

• IANA timezone names only (America/New_York, not EST).
• See references/timezones.txt for a short cheat-sheet of common zones.
