SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Apple Reminders management is often split between your desktop and iOS, making quick task capture, due-date updates, and cleanup slower than it should be.

Core Features & Use Cases

Add reminders to sync via iCloud: Create tasks with titles and optional due dates so they appear across your Apple devices.
Browse and filter reminders: View today/tomorrow/overdue, inspect specific dates, and list or target particular lists.
Complete or delete with IDs: Finish tasks or remove items reliably using reminder identifiers and optional forced deletion.

Use case: you want to capture “Buy milk” right now, assign it for tomorrow, then quickly review what’s overdue before you start your day.

Quick Start

Create a reminder for tomorrow named "Call mom" by asking the agent to run apple-reminders with the title and due date you want.
