SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires remindctl.

What problem does it solve? Managing Apple Reminders from the terminal or an AI assistant normally requires manual GUI interaction. This Skill lets you create, list, complete, and delete reminders programmatically so tasks sync to your iPhone and iPad without opening the Reminders app. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Full Reminder CRUD: Add reminders with due dates, complete or delete them by ID, and organize them into named lists. - Date-Based Views: Filter reminders by today, tomorrow, this week, overdue, or a specific date in multiple formats. - Scriptable Output: Get results as JSON, TSV, or counts for use in scripts and automation pipelines. - Use Case: A user says "remind me to call mom tomorrow" — the assistant runs remindctl add --title "Call mom" --due tomorrow and the reminder appears on all their Apple devices. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to add a reminder with a due date to one of your Apple Reminders lists, for example to add "Buy milk" due tomorrow to your Personal list.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add an Apple Reminder from the command line?▼

Use remindctl with the add command, for example remindctl add --title "Call mom" --list Personal --due tomorrow. It accepts dates like today, tomorrow, YYYY-MM-DD, or ISO 8601 timestamps.

How do I list today's Apple Reminders in the terminal?▼

Run remindctl today to show reminders due today, or use filters like tomorrow, week, overdue, or a specific date. Add --json for structured output suitable for scripting.

Does remindctl work on Linux or Windows?▼

No, remindctl is macOS-only because it integrates with the Apple Reminders framework. You must grant Reminders permission when prompted, and can check access with remindctl status.

How do I install remindctl on macOS?▼

Install it via Homebrew with brew install steipete/tap/remindctl. After installation, run remindctl authorize to request access to Apple Reminders if permission was not granted automatically.

When should I use Apple Reminders instead of a scheduled alert?▼

Use Apple Reminders for personal to-dos that should sync to your iPhone or iPad Reminders app. For one-time assistant notifications or scheduled agent tasks, use a cron-based system event instead.
