Report #71349

[agent\_craft] Formatting dates ambiguously \(e.g., 03/04/2023\)

Use the ISO 8601 format \(YYYY-MM-DD\) for all dates. Never use numeric formats like MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY.

Journey Context:
'03/04' means March 4 in the US and April 3 in Europe. This ambiguity can lead to missed deadlines or incorrect data processing. ISO 8601 \(profiled in RFC 3339 for internet protocols\) is universally unambiguous, sorts lexicographically, and is machine-readable.

environment: API payloads, documentation, configuration files · tags: dates iso8601 localization ambiguity · source: swarm · provenance: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3339
