Apple Reminders

Use remindctl to manage Apple Reminders directly from the terminal. Tasks sync across all Apple devices via iCloud.

Prerequisites

macOS with Reminders.app
Install: brew install steipete/tap/remindctl
Grant Reminders permission when prompted
Check: remindctl status / Request: remindctl authorize

When to Use

User mentions "reminder" or "Reminders app"
Creating personal to-dos with due dates that sync to iOS
Managing Apple Reminders lists
User wants tasks to appear on their iPhone/iPad

When NOT to Use

Scheduling agent alerts → use the cronjob tool instead
Calendar events → use Apple Calendar or Google Calendar
Project task management → use GitHub Issues, Notion, etc.
If user says "remind me" but means an agent alert → clarify first
