What problem does it solve?
This Skill solves the problem of manually juggling Things 3 task entry and review by letting you read and update your inbox, projects, and todos through the local Things database using the things CLI on macOS.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Read your Things database: list inbox, today, upcoming, search tasks, and browse projects, areas, and tags.
- Add or update todos safely: create new tasks using the Things URL scheme, optionally with notes, due dates, projects/areas, headings, tags, and checklist items.
- Edit existing tasks (with authorization): update titles, notes, lists, tags, and completion/cancel state using an auth token.
Use case example: You want to turn an idea into a trackable task and immediately assign it to your “Travel” project with a due date and notes, without opening the Things UI.
Quick Start
Ask OpenAEON to add your task to Things and then confirm it was created (e.g., “Add a todo titled Buy milk with notes '2% + bananas' for today”).
