todo

Personal execution engine for tasks, projects, reminders, commitments, follow-ups, and next actions. Use whenever the user mentions something they need to do, remember, plan, follow up on, prioritize, or make progress on. Also use when the user feels overwhelmed, brain-fogged, unsure what to do next, or needs to offload mental strain. This skill captures natural language, turns vague intentions into structured action, tracks momentum, and surfaces the most human-friendly next step. Local-only storage.

What This Skill Does

The Todo skill is an advanced personal execution engine for the OpenClaw agent, designed to act as an external brain for your cognitive load. Unlike standard task managers that become digital graveyards, this skill emphasizes momentum and psychological relief. It categorizes inputs into structured items—tasks, projects, commitments, follow-ups, and reminders—and uses intelligent scoring to prevent decision fatigue. By tracking item 'traits' like 'tiny', 'hot', or 'cold', the system dynamically surfaces only the most relevant next steps, allowing you to focus on execution rather than maintenance.

Installation

To add the Todo skill to your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/agenticio/todo

This will provision the necessary local storage directories at ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/todo/ and initialize the required JSON files for items, statistics, and archiving. No further configuration is required, as the skill operates entirely offline and requires no third-party API keys.

Use Cases

  • Mental De-cluttering: When you feel overwhelmed or foggy, use the skill to dump all pending thoughts into the system. It handles the structural sorting so you don't have to.
  • Project Management: Break down complex outcomes into smaller, actionable tasks to maintain steady progress without feeling the weight of the entire project at once.
  • Social/Professional Accountability: Keep track of commitments made to others or follow-ups required after meetings, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
  • Weekly Maintenance: Utilize the weekly_review.py script to prune stale items, preventing the accumulation of 'cold' tasks that contribute to subconscious stress.

Example Prompts

  1. "I'm feeling really scattered today. I have a report due Friday, I need to call the bank, and I forgot to email Sarah back. Help me organize this and tell me what to do first."
  2. "I want to start a new project to rebuild my website. Break this down into tiny, actionable steps for me."
  3. "What should I work on right now? I only have 10 minutes before my next meeting."

Tips & Limitations

  • Pro-Tip: Leverage the 'tiny' trait for low-energy days. By filtering for tiny tasks, you can maintain momentum without burning out.
  • Privacy Note: All data is stored strictly on your local machine. There is no cloud sync; if you move to a new device, you must manually migrate your ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/todo/ folder.
  • Limitations: This is a standalone system. It does not integrate with external calendars (like Google Calendar) or commercial project management software (like Jira or Trello) to maintain maximum privacy and zero external dependencies.
