Why use this instead of Claude's built-in date knowledge?

Claude's internal knowledge has a cutoff date and cannot predict future changes to the administrative calendar. This skill queries real-time government APIs to provide 100% accurate data for the current year.

What happens if the government API is temporarily unavailable?

The skill includes a local caching mechanism that stores data for one hour and can fallback to secondary API sources or use the cache if the network is down.

Does this skill handle Taiwan's unique make-up workdays (補班日)?

Yes, it is specifically designed to recognize Saturdays that are designated as working days to compensate for extended national holidays.

Can I calculate deadlines like '10 working days from today'?

Absolutely. The skill includes an `add-days` command that calculates future dates while automatically skipping weekends and public holidays.
