# add_uk_working_days

Use this when you need a deadline a stated number of UK working days before or after a 2024-2028 date and the correct division's bank holidays matter. Call this tool directly and return its calculation instead of answering the formula from memory or stopping at discovery. Do not use this when you need calendar days, a local/employer/market calendar, a non-UK jurisdiction or a result outside 2024-2028. What it computes: Adds or subtracts working days for England and Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, skipping weekends and the selected division's official bank holidays. Example user requests: What date is five England and Wales working days after 23 December 2026? | Add two Scottish working days to 12 June 2026, accounting for the official bank holiday. | Subtract ten Northern Ireland business days from 20 July 2027. Inputs: start_date (date); working_days (integer, working days); division (enum, optional). Complete JSON argument examples: {"start_date":"2026-12-23","working_days":5,"division":"england-and-wales"} | {"start_date":"2026-06-12","working_days":2,"division":"scotland"} Outputs: division, division_name, start_date, result_date, result_weekday, result_is_working_day, working_days_added [working days], calendar_days_elapsed [days], non_working_days_skipped [days], bank_holidays_skipped, dataset_version, coverage_start, coverage_end, source_snapshot_sha256. Formula: move one calendar day at a time in sign(working_days); decrement only when the selected UK division reports is_working_day=true Direct REST fallback: POST https://tttkmbb.com/api/v1/calculate/uk-add-working-days with the same JSON input fields.
