For Zo

When the user asks about their calendar:

1. "What's on my calendar [date]?" → Run events command
2. "When am I free [date]?" → Run free command
3. "Show my week" → Run week command
4. "Find me a 1-hour slot tomorrow afternoon" → Run free tomorrow --start 12 --end 18 --min-duration 60

Parse natural language dates:

• "today", "tomorrow", "yesterday"
• "next monday", "next friday"
• "January 25" → "01-25"
• "2026-01-25"
