README
system-time
A Claude Code plugin that gives Claude the **real** current date, time, and timezone from the system clock, instead of guessing from its training cutoff.
What it does
| Piece | Behavior |
|---|---|
SessionStart hook |
Injects local time, timezone, ISO 8601, UTC, and epoch at session start. |
UserPromptSubmit hook |
Re-injects the time, throttled to once every 5 minutes, so long sessions stay accurate. |
/time command |
Prints the current date/time on demand. Takes free-form arguments, e.g. /time in Tokyo. |
current-time skill |
Teaches Claude to read the clock for date math, timezone conversion, and timestamps. |
