What is Todoist CLI Skill?
This skill enables AI coding agents to interact with Todoist via the td CLI, providing a robust way to manage to-do lists and project tasks. By integrating this capability into Openclaw Skills, users can leverage natural language to query their agenda, update task details, and maintain organization across their projects without leaving the terminal. It focuses on using structured data formats like JSON to ensure precision when the agent reads or modifies task information.
Todoist CLI Skill Use Cases
- Reviewing today's agenda and overdue tasks to prioritize work.
- Adding new tasks rapidly using natural language syntax.
- Modifying task metadata such as priority levels, labels, and due dates.
- Moving tasks between the inbox and specific projects.
- Marking tasks as complete or deleting them following user confirmation.
How Todoist CLI Skill Works
- The AI agent identifies a task-related request and triggers the td CLI interface.
- The skill queries Todoist for task lists, often requesting output in JSON format for accurate parsing.
- Tasks are identified using unique IDs or content matching to ensure the correct item is modified.
- Commands are issued to the CLI to perform actions like updates, additions, or status changes.
- The agent summarizes the outcome, clearly distinguishing between different task states like overdue or upcoming.
Todoist CLI Skill Setup
To use this integration within Openclaw Skills, you must first install the td CLI from its repository:
git clone https://github.com/Doist/todoist-cli
cd todoist-cli
npm install
npm run build
npm link
Verify the installation by running:
td --help
Ensure your Todoist API token is configured according to the CLI documentation so the agent can authenticate successfully.
Todoist CLI Skill Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill interacts with Todoist data primarily through JSON objects. The following fields are commonly managed:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| id | The unique identifier for referencing specific tasks |
| content | The title or main text of the todo item |
| description | Detailed notes, often used for links or phone numbers |
| priority | Task priority levels ranging from p1 to p4 |
| due | Due dates, supporting natural language strings like "tomorrow 3pm" |
| labels | A comma-separated list of tags for categorization |
Todoist CLI Skill Advanced Features
- Natural language task creation that parses dates, priorities, and projects in a single string.
- Precision editing using unique task IDs to avoid ambiguity in large lists.
- Bulk task management through filtered lists and JSON parsing.
- Support for NDJSON for high-performance data processing in complex workflows.
- Safety protocols that require explicit user confirmation for destructive actions like deletion.
