Developer Introduces Determinism Using Calendar Script

A developer recounts on Jan. 12 how they fixed an LLM assistant's repeated date errors by having it write a deterministic calendar script that computes Monday–Friday dates and invokes gcalcli. They iteratively corrected the script and updated the assistant's skill, then cleared memory so only the deterministic behavior remains. This demonstrates replacing unreliable LLM date math with deterministic code to improve assistant reliability for scheduling tasks.
Scoring Rationale
Practical, actionable engineering pattern with direct applicability to assistants, but limited by anecdotal single-source reporting and shallow technical detail.
