What it does

Scheduling is an agent skill from damianvtran/local-operator. Scheduling across time zones: confirm times in the attendee's own zone, use IANA zone names, mind DST edges, buffers and calendar etiquette. Use when booking meetings or calls with people in other zones.

Its SKILL.md is about 670 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: An open-source AI agent hub for your own machine: build organizations of collaborating agents that message each other, run in the background around the clock, and share your… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Booking meetings
  • Calls with people in other zones

Example prompts

  • “/scheduling”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 05e4c97. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Scheduling loads about 666 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 374 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~666

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Scheduling

Times for other people: zones named exactly, ambiguity engineered out, confirmations in the frame the attendee reads.

Zones

  • Use IANA zone names (America/New_York, Europe/Berlin, Asia/Kolkata), never abbreviations. "ET" is ambiguous, "CST" means several different zones, "IST" at least three.
  • Keep the zone ID attached to the time; a bare "14:00" is not schedulable.
  • When converting, show the basis: "14:00 UTC = 10:00 New York (EDT)".

DST edges

  • Transitions move a zone by an hour. Check the UTC offset for the DATE in question, not for today.
  • Fall-back repeats an hour: 01:30 can occur twice. If a proposed time lands there, name the offset (01:30 EDT versus EST).
  • Spring-forward skips an hour: a time in the gap does not exist. Never propose one.
  • Recurring meetings: keep recurrences zoned (with the zone ID), so they stay at the local wall time. A fixed-UTC recurrence drifts an hour twice a year.

Restate in the recipient's zone

  • Every proposal and confirmation gives the time in the OTHER person's zone, plus yours, plus the zone IDs: "10:00-10:30 Europe/London (11:00 for you, Europe/Berlin)".
  • Avoid relative-only phrasing: "3pm my time" makes the reader do the conversion, and they will get it wrong when tired.

Working hours and buffers

  • Judge the time against the recipient's working hours and week boundaries, not yours. A slot outside their 9-18 needs a stated reason.
  • Leave buffers where the recipients' culture expects them; back-to-back chains across zones are a smell.
  • Respect stated focus blocks and known out-of-hours patterns.

Confirm, then book

  • A proposed slot is not a booking. Restate date, time, zone, and duration; get explicit confirmation before creating the invitation.
  • The confirmation restates all four fields. Typos and DST errors are caught here or not at all.
  • Change any field and it is a new proposal: reconfirm the whole thing.

Calendar etiquette

  • No surprise short-notice meetings where avoidable; mark urgency only when it is real.
  • Public holidays differ by country and region; check the attendee's region, not the country's default.

Red flags

  • "3pm ET" in a proposal or invitation.
  • Converting only one side of the pair.
  • A proposed time inside a DST transition window.
  • Weekend or holiday slots chosen because the zone check stopped at the clock.
  • Booking on a proposal that was never confirmed.

When should I use Scheduling?

Scheduling fits situations like: booking meetings; calls with people in other zones.

How do I install Scheduling in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add damianvtran/local-operator --skill scheduling -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (local_operator/skills/builtin/scheduling in damianvtran/local-operator) into .claude/skills/scheduling in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Scheduling in Codex?

Run `npx skills add damianvtran/local-operator --skill scheduling -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (local_operator/skills/builtin/scheduling in damianvtran/local-operator) into .agents/skills/scheduling in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Scheduling in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add damianvtran/local-operator --skill scheduling -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/scheduling, .gemini/skills/scheduling, .github/skills/scheduling and .opencode/skills/scheduling in your project.

What does Scheduling need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Scheduling is instructions for the agent only.

Does Scheduling access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Scheduling safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Scheduling use?

Scheduling is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Scheduling use?

About 666 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.7k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
