Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

idf-date-converter scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/convert_date.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

IDF Date Converter

Instructions

Step 1: Identify the Request

Request Action
Convert specific date Gregorian to Hebrew or Hebrew to Gregorian conversion
When is holiday X? Look up holiday in Hebrew calendar
Format for document Dual date string in Hebrew + Gregorian
Business days Count excluding Shabbat + holidays
Shabbat times Candle lighting / havdalah for a city (see Step 7)

Step 2: Date Conversion

Use Python conversion:

# Using pyluach library
from pyluach import dates, hebrewcal

# Gregorian to Hebrew
greg_date = dates.GregorianDate(2026, 2, 24)
heb_date = greg_date.to_heb()
print(f"{heb_date.day} {heb_date.month_name()} {heb_date.year}")

# Hebrew to Gregorian (always verify the resulting date by round-tripping)
heb_date = dates.HebrewDate(5786, 11, 15)  # 15 Shvat 5786 (Tu B'Shvat). pyluach numbers months from Nisan=1, so Shvat=11
greg_date = heb_date.to_greg()
print(f"{greg_date.day}/{greg_date.month}/{greg_date.year}")

Step 3: Hebrew Numeral Formatting

Hebrew dates use gematria (letter-number system):

  • Units: alef=1, bet=2, gimel=3, ... tet=9
  • Tens: yod=10, kaf=20, lamed=30, ... tzadi=90
  • Hundreds: kuf=100, resh=200, shin=300, tav=400
  • Special: 15 = tet-vav (not yod-heh), 16 = tet-zayin (not yod-vav)
  • Year: Omit thousands (5786 written as tav-shin-peh-vav = 786)

Step 4: Dual Date Formatting

For Israeli documents:

24 February 2026 / 7 Adar 5786

(5786 is a regular Hebrew year, not a leap year, so there is only one Adar, with no Adar I / Adar II. Always run pyluach to confirm a dual-date string before printing it.)

Step 5: Israeli Business Days

Israeli business week: Sunday through Thursday (many sectors work a half-day Friday).

Not every day people call a "holiday" is a day off, and the distinction changes the count. Split them into two tiers:

Tier Days Effect on a business-day count
Statutory rest days Rosh Hashana (2 days), Yom Kippur, Sukkot day 1, Shmini Atzeret / Simchat Torah, Pesach day 1, Pesach day 7, Shavuot, Yom HaAtzmaut Deduct. These are the days on which Israeli workplaces, banks and public transport close by law
Observances Purim, Shushan Purim, Yom HaZikaron, Yom HaShoah, Yom Yerushalayim, Yom HaAliyah, Rabin Memorial Day, Sigd, Chol HaMoed, Chanukah, Tu B'Shvat, Lag BaOmer, all public fasts Report but do NOT deduct. Workplaces generally stay open, though hours are often reduced
Erev chag Erev Rosh Hashana, Erev Yom Kippur, Erev Sukkot, Hoshana Rabba, Erev Pesach, Erev Pesach VII, Erev Shavuot Report as HALF days. Banks, government offices and courts close around midday, and Erev Pesach is a near-total closure after midday. Deduct half a day if your count is hours-based

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
