Manage Todoist tasks, projects, labels, and sections via the todoist CLI.

  • SKILL.md covers Tasks, Projects, Labels and Sections, plus 5 more sections
  • Needs TODOIST_API_TOKEN
  • Show todays tasks

What it does

Todoist 2 is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Manage Todoist tasks, projects, labels, and sections via the todoist CLI. Use when a user asks to add/complete/list tasks, show today's tasks, search tasks, or manage projects.

Its SKILL.md is about 730 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with Todoist. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.

When your agent uses it

  • A user asks to add/complete/list tasks
  • Show todays tasks
  • Manage projects

Example prompts

  • “/todoist-2”

Requirements

  • A credential in TODOIST_API_TOKEN

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b80cde2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • TODOIST_API_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Todoist 2 loads about 733 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 136 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~47
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~733

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 136 words (~733 tokens).

“Use todoist to manage tasks, projects, labels, and sections via the Todoist REST API.”
