This skill manages calendars via gog (Google Calendar) or icalBuddy (Apple Calendar). Check availability with which gog icalBuddy.

Google Calendar — gog cal (gogcli)

gog cal list                               # List upcoming events
gog cal list --days 7                      # Next 7 days
gog cal list --calendar "Work"             # Specific calendar
gog cal list --start "2026-03-01" --end "2026-03-07"
gog cal get <event-id>                     # Get event details
gog cal create --title "Meeting" --start "2026-03-01T10:00" --end "2026-03-01T11:00"
gog cal create --title "Event" --start "tomorrow 2pm" --duration 1h --calendar "Work"
gog cal create --attendees "alice@x.com,bob@x.com" --title "Sync"
gog cal update <event-id> --title "New Title"
gog cal delete <event-id>
gog cal calendars                          # List all calendars
gog cal freebusy --start "tomorrow" --end "tomorrow 5pm"

Apple Calendar — icalBuddy

icalBuddy eventsToday                        # Today's events
icalBuddy eventsToday+3                      # Events today through next 3 days
icalBuddy eventsFrom:"2026-03-01" to:"2026-03-07"
icalBuddy -ic "Work" eventsToday             # Specific calendar
icalBuddy calendars                          # List all calendars
icalBuddy uncompletedTasks                   # Incomplete reminders/tasks

Usage Guidelines

  • Use gog cal freebusy to check availability before scheduling.
  • icalBuddy is read-only for Apple Calendar — use it for viewing, not creating.
  • For creating Apple Calendar events programmatically, prefer gog with Google Calendar or use AppleScript via the osascript fallback.
  • Dates accept natural language with gog ("tomorrow 2pm", "next Monday 9am").

Notes

  • gog requires Google OAuth: gog auth.
  • icalBuddy reads directly from the local Calendar database (no auth needed).
  • Multiple Google accounts supported via gog cal --account work list.
