List Calendars

list_calendars.sh json      # JSON format

Getting Events

get_events.sh --days 14 json     # Next 14 days
get_events.sh -c "Work"          # Filter by calendar

Creating Events

create_event.sh "Meeting Title" "2025-12-26 14:00" "2025-12-26 15:00"
create_event.sh "Lunch" "2025-12-27 12:00" "2025-12-27 13:00" "Work"

Output Formats

  • TSV: Tab-separated (calendar, title, start, end, location, description)
  • Markdown: Formatted list with dates and times
  • JSON: Structured data for processing

Privacy: Event data stays local. Calendar.app data accessed via AppleScript only.

Important Notes

NEVER delete calendar events without explicit user confirmation. This skill currently does not include a delete script - if the user requests deletion, always ask for confirmation first and warn about the permanent nature of the action.
