A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

Subscribable Telugu Panchangam feeds for 22 cities — delivered as .ics files you can add to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or Outlook.
Every day appears as an all-day event (no calendar blocking) with full Panchangam details in the description. Festival days — Ugadi, Vinayaka Chavithi, Deepavali, Maha Shivaratri, the Sankranti cluster, and 30+ more — are marked with 🪔 in the title; other special days (Ekadashi, Amavasya, Pournami, Pradosham, Sankranti, Eclipses) with ⚡.

Visit the landing page to pick your city and calculation system and copy your webcal:// URL:
[panchangam.astrochaganti.com](https://panchangam.astrochaganti.com)
The site is also a daily toolkit: Today's Panchangam (any date, any city), Tarabalam · Muhurtam (good days and ranked time slots for up to four people by birth star, with Chandrabalam), and the Gochara chart with Rasi Phalalu (South Indian chart, transit verdicts and a computed daily reading). Guests can also create browser-local profiles from known astrology details. Local development and an explicitly activated public build can calculate Nakshatra, Padam, Janma Rashi, Lagna, and a reviewable D1 chart from date, exact time, and birthplace. Public builds fail closed until the licensed calculation service and place provider are approved; saved calculated profiles remain viewable. The name never leaves the browser. See the calculation and privacy contract. Drik Muhurtam searches also contain a source-backed candidate-time chart post-screen, guarded by an independent fail-closed flag. Public builds make no chart request unless VITE_ELECTION_CHART_API_ENABLED is exactly true; see the screening method and release boundary. Everything is shareable to WhatsApp.

{
"mcpServers": {
"panchangam": {
"command": "uvx",

The CSV files and phase plans under docs/tracking/ are preserved historical records; they are not a second backlog.
The repository is the canonical documentation source. Start with the [documentation standard](docs/README.md) for where current reference, operations, decisions, and historical material belong, then use the [computation reference index](docs/reference/README.md) for the detailed system map. A searchable VitePress projection is built from these files at /docs/; it is disposable presentation output and does not replace the repository as the source of truth.
