there’s no date field mentioned at https://github.com/guillermooo/sublime-undocs/blob/a571f5ba987176607f12bb141965bf4596775eeb/source/extensibility/snippets.rst#environment-variables

maybe that is why https://packagecontrol.io/packages/InsertDate was created.

I added it using custom python plugin and file handling, you can check this video here: https://youtu.be/8Mzp16ZpPBc?si=CZhXIfk8j5vVI7FD&t=512
