What problem does it solve?
For macOS users who rely on Things 3 as their primary task manager, there is no native way to manage todos, search across projects, or automate task updates without manually interacting with the Things app interface, which slows down productivity workflows.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Read-only task access: View inbox items, today's tasks, upcoming todos, and full lists of projects, areas, and tags directly from the Things database.
- Write and update operations: Add new todos with custom notes, deadlines, tags, and list assignments, or modify existing task details without opening the Things app.
- Use case example: A user can quickly add a work task titled "Prepare client presentation" with a deadline of next Wednesday and the tag "client-work" directly from the command line, or search for all tasks related to a specific project across their entire Things library in seconds.
Quick Start
Use the things-mac skill to add a new todo titled "Buy groceries" with the note "Milk, eggs, bread" and tag it "personal".
