Comprehensive guide for working with Pikud HaOref (Israel Home Front Command) alert APIs. Build integrations with real-time rocket alerts, earthquake warnings, and civil defense notifications. Covers official and community endpoints, geo-blocking workarounds, community libraries (Node.js, Python, C#), notification bots, dashboards, and historical data analysis. Use when building alert integrations, fetching live or historical alert data, or deploying monitoring services. Do NOT use for non-Israeli emergency systems or generic webhook frameworks.

Building integrations with Israel's Home Front Command (Pikud HaOref) alert system requires navigating undocumented APIs, geo-blocking constraints, Hebrew-only response formats, and a scattered ecosystem of community libraries, Tzofar fallbacks, and Home Assistant plugins. Developers lose hours reverse-engineering endpoints, handling UTF-8 BOM, determining when a situation is truly over, and combining oref + Tzofar data for multi-day conflict analysis.

Build a Telegram bot that polls the Pikud HaOref real-time alerts endpoint every 2 seconds and sends a message to my chat whenever there is an alert for Tel Aviv or Ramat Gan. Include the time-to-shelter countdown from cities.json and handle the UTF-8 BOM.
Is there currently an active alert for Ashkelon? Use the dual-check pattern: poll alerts.json for the instant snapshot, then check the history endpoint (GetAlarmsHistory.aspx) for recent cat 1-7 alerts without a matching cat 13 'event concluded' message.
Help me deploy a polling service for the Pikud HaOref alerts API on a GCP me-west1 (Tel Aviv) e2-micro VM to bypass geo-blocking. The service should poll every 2 seconds and expose an SSE stream that my app elsewhere in the world can subscribe to.
Analyze alert patterns from the last week of conflict. Combine oref history (GetAlarmsHistory.aspx for full categories including pre-alerts and event-concluded) with Tzofar historical data (iterate alert group IDs backwards from api.tzevaadom.co.il/alerts-history). Normalize timestamps to Asia/Jerusalem and deduplicate by city name.
Audit and ensure Israeli e-commerce legal compliance โ Consumer Protection Law, return policies, price display, accessibility, and cookie consent. Use when user asks about "online store compliance Israel", "Chok Hagnat HaTzarchan", "consumer protection Israel", "return policy Israel", "IS 5568 ecommerce", "cookie consent Israel", or "ืืืง ืืื ืช ืืฆืจืื". Covers cooling-off period validation, price display requirements, Hebrew terms of service generation, accessibility compliance (IS 5568), and business disclosure verification. Do NOT use for food-specific compliance (use israeli-food-business-compliance) or privacy/GDPR (use israeli-privacy-shield).
Guide Israeli ML teams through the AI governance and compliance stack: Ministry of Innovation December 2023 AI policy principles, Privacy Protection Law (PPL) and Amendment 13 applied to ML training data, sector-specific rules (Bank of Israel Directive 364, Ministry of Health AMAR medical-device AI), and EU AI Act exposure for Israeli exporters. Generates model cards, data statements, and DPIA templates tailored to Israeli context. Use when preparing AI governance docs, answering an enterprise customer's AI risk review, classifying a system under the EU AI Act, or building an internal responsible-AI checklist. Prevents costly compliance gaps when shipping AI to regulated markets. Do NOT use for general PPL policy (use israeli-privacy-shield), web app security (use israeli-appsec-scanner), or SOC/threat triage (use israeli-cybersecurity-ops).
Check whether a product requires Standards Institution of Israel (SII / Mechon HaTikanim) approval under an official standard (takan rishmi) before it can be imported into Israel. Returns applicable SI numbers, approval route (type approval, shipment approval, Maslol Plus declaration, EU-CoC recognition), required lab tests, timelines, and fast-track options based on the 2016 food parallel-import reform and the 2022/2025 electronics + EU-regulation reforms. Use when a user asks about importing electronics, toys, cosmetics, food-contact materials, vehicles, or building materials into Israel, asks about CE/type approval, or has a shipment stuck at Israeli customs. Do NOT use for customs duty calculation (use israeli-customs-duty-calculator) or for general product safety review outside the Israeli regulatory context.
