Calendar Event Plugin Not Adding Events plus other issues - Bug Report

ISSUES: 1)Calendar Event Plugin won't add events to calendar. 2) Times and dates don't work as would be expected. 12/24hr clock issue, time-sensitive words (i.e tomorrow) not working.

INFORMATION The calendar event plugin doesn't work (edit: at least for me, anyway). When typing into spotlight, the command shows up, and everything looks fine. It has a little bit of an issue recognising words like "tomorrow" but works with dates instead. The big problem is that it won't actually add anything to the calendar. An example (using 24 hour clock since AM/PM doesn't work):

add an event "testevent" at 17:00 tomorrow

The plugin shows the correct info, the red banner says "testevent", the left date says today's date with 5PM underneath it, and the one on the right says tomorrow's date with the current time underneath it. This makes no sense, but the big problem is this: It says "press enter to add to your calendar". Pressing enter or double clicking the spotlight result will open the calendar if it is closed, but no matter what it will not add an event to the calendar. I've tried all suggested syntax and even tried only typing "add an event", but nothing works.

SYSTEM INFO:

MacBook Pro (15inch mid2012) OS X Yosemite V. 10.10.2 Processor 2.3 GHz Intel i7 Flashlight v 0.97.2

I've attached screenshots of the syntax used in spotlight, and the results shown in the spotlight window. As I said above, despite showing any results at all in spotlight, it won't actually create an event of any type. The most pressing enter will do is open Calendar.app or bring it to the front. I'm sending this to the email address provided, and I'll try to open a Github issue as well.
