Amud times for your shul's website

Save everything above - the place, the opinions, the Shabbos times and the weekday times - as your shul's own short link, such as getamud.com/s/kehal-yedidim. Put that one link on your screen, your website and your app. When you change your times later, every screen follows by itself; nobody has to paste a new link.

Add Amud to Claude and ask in plain words, for example "When is candle lighting in NW4 2DR this Friday, and put Mincha 10 minutes before shkia", or "Make me this week's Mincha and Maariv times for NW4 2DR". Claude gets live data from Amud, not code, and is told to credit Amud whenever it shows the times.

Its tools: get_shabbos_times, get_day_times (any day, a week, or up to a whole year), get_api_link (when you are building a website or app with Claude, it hands Claude a live link to fetch rather than the times themselves, so it costs less and stays right), get_shul_times (a shul that has saved its own link), save_shul (sets up or changes a shul's own link, only when you ask, and gives you the edit key) and get_amud_options. Claude can work out your week in plain words, such as "Shacharis 7:00, Sundays and bank holidays 8:00, Rosh Chodesh 6:45". The davening changes, haftarah and molad come to Claude in Hebrew. Like the links above, it always asks for the place and never guesses it.

Everything below is also in the integration guide (PDF), with code for JavaScript, React, Swift, Kotlin and Python, and a ready prompt for Claude Code and other AI builders.

Davening-time rules

rule=Label:anchor+N or -N, with optional rounding @5down, @5up or @5, and limits >HH:MM (never before) and <HH:MM (never after). A fixed time is written Label:09:00 (Shabbos) or Label:friday 13:30. In front you may say which Shabbosos it is for: mevorchim, roshchodesh, special, chanukah, yomtov, cholhamoed, summer, winter or a date. The more specific rule with the same name wins.

rule=Mincha:friday.candleLighting
rule=Mincha:shabbos.shkia-20@5down
rule=Mincha:winter shabbos.shkia-15>13:45
rule=Seudah Shlishis:shabbos.shkia-60
rule=Maariv:shabbos.motzeiShabbos+5
rule=Shacharis:09:00
rule=Shacharis:mevorchim 08:30

Amud never changes your time. It adds a note if a time comes after Friday shkia, or before Shabbos ends when it is worked out from Shabbos ending.

Weekday rules

The same as Shabbos rules, with more. Put the days in front: sun, mon-fri, sun-thu, mon,thu, weekdays (not Shabbos or Yom Tov), or all (the default). Or the special days: bankholiday, roshchodesh, fast, yomtov, cholhamoed, erevyomtov, chanukah, selichos, summer, winter, or a date such as 2026-12-25. Commas mean any of them (sun,bankholiday); spaces mean all of them (roshchodesh sun is a Rosh Chodesh that falls on a Sunday). Bank holidays, Rosh Chodesh, fasts, Chol HaMoed, erev Yom Tov, Chanukah and Selichos days count on weekdays only, unless the rule also says all (roshchodesh all = every Rosh Chodesh, Shabbos and Yom Tov too) or sat.

When two rules with the same name fit one day, the more specific one wins, so a Sunday time replaces the weekday time on Sundays rather than showing two Shacharis. Most specific first: a date, Yom Tov, a bank holiday, Rosh Chodesh or a fast, Chol HaMoed or erev Yom Tov, Chanukah or Selichos, one day of the week, several days, then every day. A special day beats a day of the week; end a rule with !always to keep it even then (Shacharis:sun 08:00!always stays 8:00 on a Sunday Rosh Chodesh or bank holiday, though never on Yom Tov). Equally specific rules both show, for two minyanim under one name. Label:days off gives no time under that name on those days. Add !earliest or !latest to give one clock time for every day the rule covers, taken from the earliest or latest of them and then rounded. In a day or week answer there is only one shkia, so the day. in front of each key may be left off.

rule=Shacharis:weekdays 07:00
rule=Shacharis:sun,bankholiday 08:00
rule=Shacharis:roshchodesh 06:45
rule=Shacharis:roshchodesh sun 07:45
rule=Shacharis:sun 08:00!always
rule=Shacharis:roshchodesh all 06:45
rule=Mincha:sun-thu shkia-15!earliest@5down
rule=Mincha:fast shkia-40
rule=Maariv:sun-thu nacht<21:30
rule=Mincha:fri candleLighting
rule=Shiur:mon,thu 20:30
rule=Shiur:fast off

If a time worked out from a daytime zman lands after that day's shkia, the answer and the board say so. This is how a "latest of the week" Mincha shows the days it would be too late.

The davening, in Hebrew

Every day (and every Shabbos) carries davening: what is different from an ordinary day, in the order it is said, in vowelled Hebrew only, each with a key you can filter on. For example on Rosh Chodesh: יַעֲלֶה וְיָבֹא · חֲצִי הַלֵּל · אֵין תַּחֲנוּן · מוּסָף; on Shabbos Chol HaMoed אֵין צִדְקָתְךָ. Beside it come haftarah, molad and mevorchim (on Shabbos Mevorchim), specialHe, kiddushLevana and reminders, all in Hebrew, and gregorianDate and bankHoliday.

Time keys - Shabbos

Time keys - any day

Some appear only when they apply: chometz on Erev Pesach, fast times on a fast, candle lighting on an erev, "not before" on a second night, and Shabbos or Yom Tov ends on the night it goes out. These are always given on their day, even when fields leaves them out (fields=none gives no zmanim at all). Each day also says what is different about its davening, in Hebrew (davening), and gives tonight's Omer and Chanukah.

Every answer includes credit, the place it was worked out for (location), and every opinion in use (settings.opinions, each marked changed or not). Times come as HH:MM, as 12-hour, and as a full ISO time with the place's own offset.
