Tiimo — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the tiimo-pp-cli binary. You must verify the CLI is installed before invoking any command from this skill. If it is missing, install it first:

1. Install via the Printing Press installer. It defaults binaries to $HOME/.local/bin on macOS/Linux and %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\PrintingPress\bin on Windows:

   npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install tiimo --cli-only

2. Verify: tiimo-pp-cli --version
3. Ensure the reported install directory is on $PATH for the agent/runtime that will invoke this skill.

If the npx install fails (no Node, offline, etc.), fall back to a direct Go install (requires Go 1.26.6 or newer). This installs into $GOPATH/bin (default $HOME/go/bin), so add that directory to $PATH instead:

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/productivity/tiimo/cmd/tiimo-pp-cli@latest

If --version reports "command not found" after install, the runtime cannot see the binary directory on $PATH. Do not proceed with skill commands until verification succeeds.

Tiimo has no public API and declines to let you export your data or sync it back to a calendar. This CLI mirrors your own planner into local SQLite and gives you the surfaces the app will not: export to JSON, CSV, or iCalendar, a subscribable calendar feed, and analysis of what you planned versus what actually happened.

When to Use This CLI

Use this CLI for any task involving a Tiimo user's schedule, routines, or to-do list: reading what is planned, capturing new tasks or activities, checking things off, and above all getting the data out of Tiimo. It is the only way to export Tiimo data or analyze planned-versus-actual behavior, because the product itself offers neither.

Anti-triggers

Do not use this CLI for:

• Do not use this CLI for generic calendar work that is not in Tiimo; use the calendar provider's own tooling.
• Do not use it to edit events that came from a linked external calendar - those are read-only in Tiimo and must be changed at the source.
• Do not use it for mood, energy, or focus-timer history; no API surface for those was found.
• Do not use it to reach Tiimo's AI Co-planner; that is a separate service this CLI does not wrap.

Unique Capabilities

These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API.

Your data, out of the app

• export — Stream a paginated resource straight to JSON or JSONL. Use backup for a whole-planner snapshot and feed for calendar or spreadsheet formats.

  Reach for this to pull one resource as a stream; for everything at once use backup, and for a calendar file use feed.

  tiimo-pp-cli export profiles --format json

• feed — Generate a subscribable read-only iCalendar file of your Tiimo activities.

  Use this to make Tiimo activities visible inside any calendar client without giving that client write access.

  tiimo-pp-cli feed --out ~/tiimo.ics --days 30

• backup — Write every mirrored record - activities, to-dos, tags, routines, calendars - to one portable JSON snapshot. This is the whole-planner export Tiimo does not offer.

  This is the command to reach for when the user says they want their Tiimo data out. Use it before any bulk change, or on a schedule.

  tiimo-pp-cli backup --out ~/tiimo-backups

Plan versus reality

• drift — Show which activities consistently start late, overrun, or spend the most time paused.

  Reach for this when the user asks why their schedule never holds, or which task always blows its estimate.

  tiimo-pp-cli drift --days 30 --agent

• stalls — Find the exact checklist step where a multi-step routine tends to break down.

  Use when a routine keeps failing and the user does not know which step is the blocker.

  tiimo-pp-cli stalls --weeks 8

• adherence — Completion rate for each recurring activity over a window.

  Use to answer how reliably a habit is actually being kept, rather than whether it exists on the calendar.

  tiimo-pp-cli adherence --weeks 4 --agent

Timeline intelligence

• overlaps — List activities that are double-booked against each other.

  Use before committing to a plan, or when the user suspects their day is over-scheduled.

  tiimo-pp-cli overlaps --from 2026-08-14 --to 2026-08-21

• gaps — Find the unscheduled windows in a day that are at least a given length.

  Use when fitting something new into an existing day without opening the app.

  tiimo-pp-cli gaps --min 30m --from 2026-08-14

• rolling — A true rolling multi-day view starting from today.

  Use for a forward-looking view that does not reset at an arbitrary week boundary.

  tiimo-pp-cli rolling --days 7

• capacity — Committed versus free minutes per day, broken down by time-of-day bucket.

  Use to judge whether a day has real room left before agreeing to add something to it.

  tiimo-pp-cli capacity --from 2026-08-14 --to 2026-08-21 --agent

HTTP Transport

This CLI uses Chrome-compatible HTTP transport for browser-facing endpoints. It does not require a resident browser process for normal API calls.

Discovery Signals

This CLI was generated with browser-observed traffic context.

• Capture coverage: 15 API entries from 15 total network entries
• Protocols: rest_json (75% confidence)
• Auth signals: oauth2_bearer
• Candidate command ideas: create_activities — Derived from observed POST /api/profiles/{profile_id}/activities traffic.; delete_activities — Derived from observed DELETE /api/profiles/{profile_id}/activities/{activity_id} traffic.; get_activities — Derived from observed GET /api/externalCalendar/profiles/{profile_id}/externalCalendars/{externalcalendar_id}/activities traffic.; get_linkedCalendars — Derived from observed GET /api/externalCalendar/profiles/{profile_id}/linkedCalendars traffic.; get_profiles — Derived from observed GET /api/profiles/{profile_id} traffic.; get_routines — Derived from observed GET /api/profiles/{profile_id}/routines traffic.; get_tags — Derived from observed GET /api/profiles/{profile_id}/tags traffic.; get_todo_task_lists — Derived from observed GET /api/profiles/{profile_id}/todo-task-lists traffic.
• Caveats: empty_payload: API-looking request returned an empty or null payload; schema confidence is weak.

Command Reference

activities — Timeline activities - the scheduled items that make up a day

profiles — Tiimo profiles (an account can hold several shared profiles)

• tiimo-pp-cli profiles get — Get a single profile
• tiimo-pp-cli profiles list — List every profile on the account

routines — Saved routines

• tiimo-pp-cli routines <profile_id> — List routines in a date window

Freshness Contract

This printed CLI owns bounded freshness only for registered store-backed read command paths. In --data-source auto mode, those paths check sync_state and may run a bounded refresh before reading local data. --data-source local never refreshes. --data-source live reads the API and does not mutate the local store. Set TIIMO_NO_AUTO_REFRESH=1 to skip the freshness hook without changing source selection.

Covered paths:

• tiimo-pp-cli profiles
• tiimo-pp-cli profiles get
• tiimo-pp-cli profiles list
• tiimo-pp-cli profiles search

When JSON output uses the generated provenance envelope, freshness metadata appears at meta.freshness. Treat it as current-cache freshness for the covered command path, not a guarantee of complete historical backfill or API-specific enrichment.

Finding the right command

When you know what you want to do but not which command does it, ask the CLI directly:

tiimo-pp-cli which "<capability in your own words>"

which resolves a natural-language capability query to the best matching command from this CLI's curated feature index. Exit code 0 means at least one match; exit code 2 means no confident match — fall back to --help or use a narrower query.

Recipes

Capture a task, or a whole brain dump

tiimo-pp-cli todo add "book dentist"

Capture is the whole point for the target user, so the CLI takes one task per line on stdin. Pipe into it (printf 'call pharmacy\nbook dentist\n' | tiimo-pp-cli todo add --stdin) or redirect a file with < tasks.txt; blank lines are skipped and each line becomes its own task.

Narrow a deeply nested activity payload for an agent

tiimo-pp-cli agenda --from 2026-08-14 --to 2026-08-21 --agent --select title,startTime,duration,completedAt,checklist.isCompleted

Activities carry dozens of fields including nested checklists and recurrence; selecting a handful keeps the response small enough to reason over.

Find a free hour this week

tiimo-pp-cli gaps --min 60m --from 2026-08-14 --to 2026-08-21

Returns the unscheduled windows long enough to actually use, without opening the app.

Publish a calendar feed your other tools can subscribe to

tiimo-pp-cli feed --out ~/Public/tiimo.ics --days 60

Produces the read-only calendar view Tiimo users asked for and were told would not be built.

See which routine step keeps breaking

tiimo-pp-cli stalls --weeks 8 --agent

Aggregates per-step checklist completion so the failure point is a fact rather than a guess.

Auth Setup

Tiimo authenticates through OpenID Connect at auth.tiimoapp.com. The simplest path is to set TIIMO_TOKEN to a bearer token for the tiimo_webapi scope; run tiimo-pp-cli doctor to confirm the token is accepted. Tokens are short-lived, so store a refresh token when available and let the CLI renew it.

Agent Mode

Add --agent to any command. Expands to: --json --compact --no-input --no-color --yes.

• Pipeable — JSON on stdout, errors on stderr

• Filterable — --select keeps a subset of fields. Dotted paths descend into nested structures; arrays traverse element-wise. Critical for keeping context small on verbose APIs:

  tiimo-pp-cli activities list mock-value --from-date 2026-01-15 --agent --select date,activities

• Previewable — --dry-run shows the request without sending

• Offline-friendly — sync/search commands can use the local SQLite store when available

• Non-interactive — never prompts, every input is a flag

• Explicit retries — use --idempotent only when an already-existing create should count as success, and use --ignore-missing only when a missing delete target should count as success

Response envelope

Commands that read from the local store or the API wrap output in a provenance envelope:

{
  "meta": {"source": "live" | "local", "synced_at": "...", "reason": "..."},
  "results": <data>
}

Parse .results for data and .meta.source to know whether it's live or local. A human-readable N results (live) summary is printed to stderr only when stdout is a terminal AND no machine-format flag (--json, --csv, --compact, --quiet, --plain, --select) is set — piped/agent consumers and explicit-format runs get pure JSON on stdout.

Paths and state

Agents should treat the CLI's path resolver as part of the runtime contract:

• Use --home <dir> for one invocation, or set TIIMO_HOME=<dir> to relocate all four path kinds under one root.

• Use per-kind env vars only when a specific kind must diverge: TIIMO_CONFIG_DIR, TIIMO_DATA_DIR, TIIMO_STATE_DIR, TIIMO_CACHE_DIR.

• Resolution order is per-kind env var, --home, TIIMO_HOME, XDG (XDG_CONFIG_HOME, XDG_DATA_HOME, XDG_STATE_HOME, XDG_CACHE_HOME), then platform defaults.

• config contains settings like config.toml and profiles. data contains credentials.toml, data.db, cookies, and auth sidecars. state contains persisted queries, jobs, and teach.log. cache contains regenerable HTTP/cache files.

• Stored secrets live in credentials.toml under the data dir. Existing legacy config.toml secrets are read for compatibility and leave config.toml on the first auth write.

• Run tiimo-pp-cli doctor --fail-on warn to surface path and credential-location warnings. agent-context exposes a schema v4 paths block for agents that need the resolved dirs.

• For MCP, pass relocation through the MCP host config. The MCP binary does not inherit CLI flags:

  {
    "mcpServers": {
      "tiimo": {
        "command": "tiimo-pp-mcp",
        "env": {
          "TIIMO_HOME": "/srv/tiimo"
        }
      }
    }
  }

Fleet precedence: an inherited per-kind env var overrides an explicit --home for that kind. Use TIIMO_HOME or per-kind vars as durable fleet levers, and use --home only for a single invocation. Relocation is not reversible by unsetting env vars; move files manually before clearing TIIMO_HOME, or doctor will not find credentials left under the former root.

Automatic learning

This CLI ships a self-capturing learning loop. The CLI does its own bookkeeping: every invocation is journaled locally, a failed flag followed by a corrected retry auto-derives a flag_alias candidate, and a teach on a query family without a playbook auto-synthesizes a playbook_candidate from the session's journal. Your job is judgment only: recall first, act on surfaced candidates, teach the final answer, playbook amend when you observe a correction. You never record failures by hand.

Step 1: recall before any discovery

Before list/search/drill commands on a new user question, run:

tiimo-pp-cli recall "<user's question>" --agent

The response envelope:

{
  "query": "...",
  "normalized": "<normalized form>",
  "query_entities": ["..."],
  "found": true | false,
  "match_score": 0.0,
  "results": [
    { "resource_id": "...", "resource_type": "...", "venue": "...",
      "confidence": 2, "entity_match": "exact|partial|unknown",
      "source": "taught|preseed|pattern", "warnings": ["..."] }
  ],
  "mismatches": [ /* only when --debug-mismatches */ ],
  "warnings": [ /* top-level */ ],
  "candidates": [
    { "id": 12, "class": "flag_alias | playbook_candidate",
      "summary": "...", "sightings": 3, "last_seen": "...",
      "rationale": "...",
      "next_action": ["<trial command>", "tiimo-pp-cli learnings confirm 12"] }
  ],
  "playbook": {
    "query_family": "...",
    "playbook": {
      "steps": [ { "cmd": "<command with {slot} substitution>", "purpose": "..." } ],
      "entity_slots": ["$ENTITY"],
      "expected_tool_calls": 3
    },
    "slots_resolved": { "$ENTITY": { "token": "<live token>", "canonical": "<canonical>" } },
    "notes": "<workarounds + gotchas for this query family>"
  },
  "notes": "<duplicate surface for non-playbook callers>"
}

Empty-store short-circuit: if the store has no learnings, playbooks, or candidates yet (recall finds nothing and learnings list and learnings candidates are both empty), skip recall for the rest of this session instead of taxing every query; resume recall-first once something has been taught.

Step 2: decision tree

Read candidates, playbook, notes, results[0], and warnings in that order:

if Candidates present (warnings include "candidates_present"):
    -> candidates are try-then-confirm, never facts. Follow each candidate's
       two-step next_action verbatim: run the trial command first, then run
       `learnings confirm <id>` only after the trial verified the behavior.
       Reject a wrong candidate with `learnings reject <id>`.
    -> NEVER re-teach something recall surfaced as a candidate; confirm or
       reject that candidate instead of teaching a duplicate.
    -> candidates ride alongside playbooks and resource hits, not instead of
       them; continue with the branches below after acting on them.

if Playbook present:
    -> READ Playbook.notes verbatim FIRST (workarounds + gotchas the CLI surface doesn't expose)
    -> replay Playbook.steps in order, substituting Playbook.slots_resolved entries
       for the entity slot tokens. If a step's slot is unresolved, fall back to
       discovery for that step only.
    -> the Playbook's expected_tool_calls is a budget; if you find yourself running
       materially more, record the divergence via `tiimo-pp-cli playbook amend`
       at end-of-session.

elif Notes present (no Playbook):
    -> read Notes verbatim before any discovery step; they carry known gotchas
       for this query family even when no structured choreography exists yet.

elif Found AND Results[0].EntityMatch == "exact" AND Results[0].Confidence >= 2:
    -> skip discovery; fetch live data for Results[*].ResourceID in parallel

elif Found AND Results[0].EntityMatch == "partial":
    -> candidate hint, NOT a hit; read the resource title to validate before trusting

elif (any row in Mismatches[] when --debug-mismatches was passed):
    -> treat as cold start; the stored learning is for a different entity
       (different canonical resolved from query_entities)

else:  // Found == false, no playbook, no notes
    -> cold start; run discovery normally; teach the answer afterward (Step 4).
       If the family has no playbook yet, that teach auto-synthesizes a
       playbook candidate from this session's journal - you do not need to
       record one by hand.

Playbook and Notes are orthogonal to the per-resource path. A recall response can carry both a Playbook AND a Results[] hit - use both: the Playbook tells you which choreography to run; the resource hits short-circuit specific steps. Default to skipping mismatches; pass --debug-mismatches only when investigating cold-start surprises.

Candidate judgment details: learnings confirm <id> prints the candidate's full payload before materializing it - check that the printed payload matches the behavior you verified. learnings reject <id> tombstones the derivation signature so the same candidate does not resurface. The envelope carries only the few candidates worth acting on now; tiimo-pp-cli learnings candidates lists the full open set.

Graceful degradation: if learnings confirm is an unknown command, you are driving an older binary - ignore the candidates guidance and follow the rest of the protocol.
