# Apple Calendar

## Overview

Use this skill to work with the local macOS Calendar app through the bundled helper at `../../scripts/apple_calendar.py`. The helper now uses an EventKit/Swift backend for data operations. Prefer the quick commands `today`, `tomorrow`, `agenda`, `free`, and `add` over lower-level calls unless you need raw JSON or direct lifecycle operations like `update-event`, `delete-event`, reminder changes, or `.ics` export/import.

## Workflow

1. Confirm the task is meant for Apple Calendar on macOS, not Google Calendar or Outlook.
2. Never run Calendar helper commands in parallel. The helper now serializes access to Calendar.app, and parallel calls only add latency.
3. For daily summaries, start with `today` or `tomorrow`. These default to the configured personal calendars in `../../config.json` instead of scanning every subscribed calendar.
4. Use `agenda` or `list-events` only when you need a specific date window or raw JSON payload.
5. Normalize relative dates into exact local timestamps before reasoning about conflicts or creating an event.
6. Prefer `add --if-free` for new events so overlapping slots are blocked unless the user explicitly wants a conflict.
