What is Remember The Milk?
The Remember The Milk skill for Openclaw Skills enables developers and AI agents to interact directly with the RTM platform. This tool allows for comprehensive task management, including creating, listing, searching, and organizing todos without leaving the command line or coding environment. It is built as a standalone Python script with no external dependencies, ensuring a lightweight and secure footprint for any development workflow.
By incorporating this skill, users can leverage the full power of Remember The Milk through an AI coding assistant. This integration supports everything from basic task addition to complex filtering and note management, making it an essential component for those who rely on structured productivity systems while using Openclaw Skills.
Remember The Milk Use Cases
- Creating new tasks with due dates and priorities during a coding session.
- Searching for specific project reminders using advanced filter syntax.
- Moving tasks between different lists to reflect project progress.
- Adding detailed notes and documentation to existing tasks for better context.
- Automating task completion tracking through an AI agent.
How Remember The Milk Works
- The skill initializes by checking for valid RTM_API_KEY and RTM_SHARED_SECRET environment variables.
- An authentication flow is triggered once to link the skill to a specific Remember The Milk account.
- A local authentication token is generated and stored securely for subsequent requests.
- Commands are sent to the RTM API via HTTPS to perform operations like fetching task lists or updating status.
- The skill processes the API response and returns structured data, including unique IDs for tasks and lists.
Remember The Milk Setup
To set up this integration within the Openclaw Skills framework, follow these steps:
- Retrieve your API credentials from https://www.rememberthemilk.com/services/api/keys.rtm
- Configure the required environment variables in your environment or via the Openclaw configuration:
export RTM_API_KEY='your_api_key_here'
export RTM_SHARED_SECRET='your_shared_secret_here'
- Execute the authentication command to link your account:
python3 scripts/rtm.py auth
- Authorize the application in the opened browser window and confirm in the terminal to save your token to ~/.rtm_token.
Remember The Milk Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill manages task data and identifiers required for precise operations. The following data points are typically returned in task lists:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| list_id | The unique identifier for the RTM list (e.g., Inbox, Work). |
| series_id | The identifier for a task series, used for modifying existing tasks. |
| task_id | The specific ID for a single instance of a task. |
| note_id | The unique identifier for notes attached to a specific task. |
All output includes human-readable task names, priorities (P1, P2, P3), due dates, and tags for easy identification.
Remember The Milk Advanced Features
- Support for RTM Smart Add syntax, allowing for natural language task creation including due dates and tags.
- Advanced search capabilities using the full RTM filter syntax (e.g., priority:1 AND due:today).
- Multi-list movement, allowing tasks to be transitioned between different workflow stages.
- Robust error handling with automatic retries and exponential backoff for network reliability.
- Explicit environment variable passing for sub-agents and restricted execution environments.
