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 1mo 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 city

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 starting at 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 — 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 (some work half-day Friday) Non-working days:

  • Every Shabbat (Friday sunset to Saturday sunset)
  • All major holidays (see holiday table)
  • Election days (when applicable)
def is_israeli_business_day(greg_date):
    """Check if a date is an Israeli business day."""
    # Saturday = 5 in Python's weekday() (0=Monday)
    if greg_date.weekday() == 5:  # Saturday
        return False
    # Check if it's a holiday
    heb = dates.GregorianDate(greg_date.year, greg_date.month, greg_date.day).to_heb()
    # Check against holiday list
    return not is_israeli_holiday(heb)

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.
