Struct LocalClock 

pub struct LocalClock;

Real wall-clock in the local timezone, matching Python’s datetime.now() (which is what transformers uses for strftime_now). Requires the strftime feature.

SystemClock is UTC and dependency-free; this reads the local timezone offset via chrono (the only thing we borrow from it — formatting still goes through our own strftime, so the supported specifiers and their output are identical to the other clocks). Construct it and pass it to ChatTemplateBuilder::clock when you need rendered dates to match what transformers would emit on the same machine:

use hf_chat_template::{ChatTemplate, LocalClock};
let tmpl = ChatTemplate::builder("Today: {{ strftime_now('%Y') }}")
    .clock(LocalClock)
    .build()
    .unwrap();
