What is To-Do Accelerator?
To-Do Accelerator transforms the way humans and AI agents interact by establishing a shared communication channel through an Obsidian Kanban board. It allows agents to function as true teammates, capable of picking up pending tasks, executing workflows, and delivering tangible results without constant manual supervision. By bridging the gap between planning and execution, this entry in the Openclaw Skills library ensures that ideas are captured and processed systematically.
The system relies on a structured workflow where tasks move through different lifecycle stages—from initial ideas to active progress and final review. This ensures that the agent always has context on what to work on next, while the user maintains full visibility into the agent's progress, roadblocks, and completed deliverables.
To-Do Accelerator Use Cases
- Creating and managing a backlog of research topics or project deliverables for an AI agent to handle.
- Automating agent heartbeat events where the AI independently checks for and picks up high-priority tasks.
- Coordinating complex workflows where an agent needs to confirm specific requirements before beginning a task.
- Saving bookmarks, interests, or deep-dive requests for future processing by specialized AI agents.
- Tracking ongoing investigation and troubleshooting steps within a persistent markdown environment.
How To-Do Accelerator Works
- Task Initialization: The user or agent uses the add-todo command to record a new item under the Ideas column, specifying targets, requirements, and priority levels.
- Selection & Activation: During a heartbeat event or upon user request, the agent invokes work-on-todo to move a task from Ideas to In-Progress, receiving a structured prompt for execution.
- Execution & Documentation: The agent performs the required work, documenting findings, problems, and progress directly in the task's companion markdown note.
- Completion & Commitment: Once the requirements are met, the agent uses the commit command to check off sub-tasks and move the Kanban card to the Review column.
- Review & Iteration: The user reviews the deliverables in the Target section of the note and decides whether to finalize the task or restart the cycle for further refinement.
To-Do Accelerator Setup
To get started with this addition to your Openclaw Skills, ensure the configuration is active in your agent's workspace:
- Check Configuration: Verify if
todo-accelerator-config.yamlexists in the agent's workspace. - Initialize: If the config is missing, follow the
initialization.mdguide located in the skill directory. - Command Setup: Define the base command for your scripts:
# Replace <skill-dir> and <workspace> with your specific absolute paths
python3 <skill-dir>/scripts/todo.py --config <workspace>/todo-accelerator-config.yaml
To-Do Accelerator Data Schema & Taxonomy
The To-Do Accelerator manages data through a companion markdown note for every task. This structure ensures that both humans and Openclaw Skills can parse the state of work easily.
| Section | Purpose | Update Method |
|---|---|---|
| Frontmatter | Metadata like priority, assigned agent, and iteration count | Managed by scripts |
| What's More | A checklist of specific requirements (- [ ]) |
Updated via commit command |
| Target | Definition of the final expected results and deliverables | Manual/Agent entry |
| Investigation | Real-time findings, progress logs, and encountered issues | Manual/Agent entry |
To-Do Accelerator Advanced Features
- Priority-Based Auto-Selection: Automatically identifies and processes the most urgent tasks based on numerical priority levels.
- Sub-Agent Support: Allows tasks to be delegated to specific agent IDs or allows for multi-agent collaboration on a single to-do item.
- Obsidian Kanban Integration: Visually syncs task states with an Obsidian-compatible board for a high-level overview of the workflow.
- Strict Requirement Validation: The
commitcommand enforces exact string matching for requirements to ensure no sub-task is overlooked during the delivery phase.
