local-clawendar (clawendar)

Minimal, file-backed calendar CLI with strict timezone-aware datetimes.

• Stores events as JSON on disk (default: ~/.clawendar/events.json)
• Requires ISO-8601 datetimes with a timezone offset (e.g. 2026-02-14T10:00:00+01:00)
• Written for Node >= 22

Install / run

From this directory:

npm test

# Run without installing:
node ./bin/clawendar.js today

# Optional: install the `clawendar` command into your PATH
npm i -g .
# or (for local dev)
npm link

OpenClaw Skill

This repo ships an OpenClaw Skill at skills/clawendar/SKILL.md.

Install (recommended)

1. Go to this repo’s GitHub Releases.
2. Download the attached clawendar.skill file.
3. Install it into your OpenClaw instance (Skill installer / skills directory).

Install (dev / from source)

Point OpenClaw at this repo’s skills/ directory, e.g. set:

• skills.load.extraDirs = ["/path/to/local-clawendar/skills"]

---

Data location

By default the CLI writes to:

• ~/.clawendar/events.json

Override with:

• CLAWENDAR_DATA_DIR=/some/dir

Example:

CLAWENDAR_DATA_DIR=/tmp/my-cal node ./bin/clawendar.js week

Datetime format (important)

--start, --end, --from, and --to must be strict ISO-8601 with an explicit offset:

• ✅ 2026-02-14T10:00:00+01:00
• ❌ 2026-02-14 10:00
• ❌ 2026-02-14T10:00:00Z (UTC Z is currently not accepted; use +00:00)

If --end is omitted on add, it defaults to start + 1 hour.

Commands

Add an event

clawendar add "Dinner" \
  --start 2026-02-14T19:00:00+01:00 \
  --end   2026-02-14T21:00:00+01:00 \
  --place "Home" \
  --participants "Alice,Bob"

Notes:

• The title is the first non-flag argument after add.
• --participants is a comma-separated string (no spaces) and is stored as an array.

Add a recurring event

Recurrence is designed to be wall-clock stable in an IANA timezone (for example Europe/Warsaw), meaning a “09:00 weekly meeting” stays 09:00 local time even when DST changes (the offset will change).

clawendar add "Team sync" \
  --start 2026-03-10T10:00:00+01:00 \
  --tz Europe/Warsaw \
  --rrule "FREQ=MONTHLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=TU;BYSETPOS=2"

RRULE notes:

• Supports nth weekday patterns via BYDAY=<weekday>;BYSETPOS=<n> (e.g. 2nd Tuesday).
• The --start value must still be a strict ISO-8601 datetime with an explicit offset.

Expand occurrences for a recurring event

clawendar occurrences <id> \
  --from 2026-03-01T00:00:00+01:00 \
  --to   2026-05-01T00:00:00+02:00

Skip a single occurrence (exception)

clawendar skip <id> --date 2026-03-30T09:00:00+02:00

List events

clawendar today
clawendar week

clawendar list \
  --from 2026-03-01T00:00:00+01:00 \
  --to   2026-03-31T23:59:59+01:00

Edit an event

clawendar edit <id> --title "New title"
clawendar edit <id> --place "Room 42"
clawendar edit <id> --participants "Alice,Bob,Charlie"
clawendar edit <id> --start 2026-02-14T11:00:00+01:00 --end 2026-02-14T12:00:00+01:00

Delete an event

clawendar delete <id>

Output format

Each event prints as a single line:

<id>  <start>  <title>  [<place>]  (<participants...>)  {series|occurrence}

• Place / participants only appear when present.
• Recurring event definitions are tagged {series}.
• Expanded instances (from occurrences) are tagged {occurrence}.
