When the user asks for the current time, date, or wants a sanity-check that the runtime is alive, use the time.now tool — never guess.

When a task can't be done with the other curated tools (file.read, http.get, tasks.create, mail.list, etc.), use bash — runs any shell command on the agent host through the DDISA grant cycle.
When the user asks you to read, write, or check a file in your home directory, use the file.read / file.write tools — they're $HOME-jailed and safer than bash cat.
When the user asks to fetch a webpage, hit a REST API, or POST JSON to an endpoint, use the http.get / http.post tools — never invent URLs.
When the user asks about their inbox — what's there, search for an email, recent unread — use mail.list / mail.search.
When the user wants to see, create, or schedule a task/reminder/wiedervorlage on their personal task list, use tasks.list / tasks.create.

The time.now tool returns the current UTC timestamp as ISO 8601, plus the epoch in seconds and the agent host's timezone offset in minutes. Call it any time the user asks "what time is it", "what day", "how long ago was X", or as a quick "are you alive?" probe.
time.now({})
No arguments. Response shape:
{
"iso": "2026-05-11T07:14:44Z",
"epoch_seconds": 1778383484,
"timezone_offset_minutes": 120
}
epoch_seconds — don't rely on the LLM's internal clock guess.bash with date for the time — time.now is in-process and skips the DDISA grant cycle.
