# Get calendar temporal context

`GET /v1/calendars/{id}/context`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.chronary.ai`
- URL: `https://api.chronary.ai/v1/calendars/{id}/context`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Returns a snapshot of the calendar's temporal state: current event, next event, recent events, and upcoming events within 24 hours. Designed for agents that need situational awareness of a calendar.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required: Calendar ID

## Response `200`

Calendar temporal context

- CalendarContext
  - `calendar_id` string, required
  - `now` string, date-time, required
  - `agent_status` 'idle' | 'working' | 'waiting' | 'error', required
  - `current_event` object, nullable, required: Currently active event, or null
    - `id` string, required
    - `calendarId` string, required
    - `orgId` string, required
    - `title` string, required
    - `description` string, nullable, required
    - `startTime` string, date-time, required
    - `endTime` string, date-time, required
    - `allDay` boolean, required
    - `status` 'confirmed' | 'tentative' | 'cancelled' | 'hold', required
    - `source` 'internal' | 'external_ical', required
    - `metadata` object, required
    - `reminders` integer[], nullable, required: Reminder offsets (minutes before start). Each fires an event.reminder webhook and emits a VALARM in the iCal feed. null = inherit the calendar default (then the system default of 10 min); [] = no reminders.
    - `holdExpiresAt` string, date-time, nullable, required: When set, the event is a tentative hold that auto-expires at this timestamp. Must be 30 seconds to 15 minutes in the future when creating a hold; the cap exists to keep held slots short enough that they do not block real scheduling for long.
    - `holdPriority` integer, nullable, required: Priority for conflict resolution. Higher values pre-empt lower-priority overlapping holds.
    - `recurrenceRule` string, nullable, required: RFC 5545 RRULE subset (no "RRULE:" prefix) when this event is a recurring series master, e.g. "FREQ=WEEKLY;BYDAY=MO,WE;COUNT=12". Expansion is UTC-only. null = one-off event.
    - `recurrenceExdates` string[], required: ISO 8601 starts of individually cancelled occurrences (EXDATE).
    - `recurringEventId` string: Present only on expanded instances (expand=true): the id of the recurring series master this instance belongs to.
    - `originalStartTime` string, date-time: Present only on expanded instances: the occurrence start this instance was generated for.
    - `external_sync` object: Present only on create/update/hold mutation responses — the outcome of publishing this event to a connected human calendar (opt-in). Absent on read/list responses.
      - `status` string, required: not_configured | queued | published | skipped | failed
    - `deletedAt` string, date-time, nullable, required
    - `createdAt` string, date-time, required
    - `updatedAt` string, date-time, required
  - `next_event` object, nullable, required: Next upcoming event, or null
