Usage
Natural Language Commands
The skill understands natural language commands:
"Create a meeting tomorrow at 2pm to discuss the project, lasting 1 hour, remind me 30 minutes before"
"Schedule a call with John next Tuesday at 10am, remind me 1 hour ahead"
"I have lunch with Sarah today at 12:30pm"
"Show me my calendar for this week"
"What meetings do I have tomorrow?"
Manual Commands
For more control, you can use structured commands:
# Create an event

# List upcoming events
calendar list [--days N] [--from YYYY-MM-DD] [--to YYYY-MM-DD]
