This is exactly how the feature is described in the manual:

Diary-style expression entries

 package(2).  For example, with optional time:

<%%(diary-float t 4 2)>
#+end_example


Thanks, my bad.  I guess the reason for the time to be included in 
the headline is to be consistent with the diary format.

Actually, that is how the manual explain their usage.

What works for me, for diary sexp entries, is putting the time in the
heading:

* 09:00-10:00 Weekly meeting
  <%%(diary-cyclic 7 9 10 2021)>

Invoking org-agenda with a (org-agenda-list) does not show the 
item, whereas scheduled diary sexp or plain timestamp

works fine:

* Weekly meeting
 SCHEDULED: <%%(diary-cyclic 7 9 10 2021) 9:00-10:00>



I can reproduce; adding the hour makes the event not appear 
unless it
has a DEADLINE or SCHEDULED. 


Thanks for confirming.  The org-agenda code is not very readable 
for me with some very long functions, but I'll see if I can fix 
it.  By the way is breaking functions into smaller ones desirable 
for the project?
