## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

Todoist CLI is Doist's official command-line interface for Todoist, installed as the td command. It represents Todoist's vendor-maintained move into terminal workflows, OAuth-based authentication, shell completion, and coding-agent skill installation.

### Projektgeschichte

The official repository describes Todoist CLI simply as a command-line interface for Todoist and installs it from npm as @doist/todoist-cli. The changelog begins with 1.0.0 on 2026-01-16 and shows rapid 1.x development through 2026, with semantic-release automation documented in CONTRIBUTING.md.

The README documents browser-based Todoist authentication, read-only OAuth mode, optional additional OAuth scopes, manual token and environment-variable authentication, OS credential-manager storage, and a plaintext fallback config path. This is a more vendor-integrated model than older unofficial Todoist CLIs, which typically relied directly on user API tokens.

By mid-2026 the changelog shows many feature additions beyond basic tasks: accounts, projects, sections, labels, comments, reminders, billing, apps, backups, goals, Markdown output behavior, and Todoist SDK upgrades. The README also documents installing agent skills for tools such as codex, claude-code, copilot, cursor, gemini, pi, and universal.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The input metadata shows the official CLI packaged by Homebrew, MacPorts, Nix, and Debian metadata, while the README uses npm as the primary installation channel. In Homebrew, this package occupies the todoist-cli name, while the older Go client is named todoist-cli-go.

The agent-skill commands are a notable adoption signal for the current package-nerd niche: Todoist CLI is not only for humans at a shell prompt, but also for local coding agents that can read a Todoist-specific skill and operate through td.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Users authenticate with td auth login, then run commands such as td add, td today, td inbox, td task list, td project list, and td task view. The README also documents shell completions for bash, zsh, and fish, accessibility flags, read-only mode, additional OAuth scopes, and environment-token fallback.

Package-conscious users care about where credentials land. The official README says tokens are stored in macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Manager, or Linux Secret Service/libsecret when available, with a warning and fallback to ~/.config/todoist-cli/config.json if secure storage is unavailable.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Todoist CLI is significant because it turns a hosted task system into a first-party terminal tool with npm, Homebrew, MacPorts, and Nix packaging. It also clarifies the package-name collision with the earlier Go client in this batch.

Its 2026 agent-skill support makes it especially relevant to package nerds building local AI or automation stacks: it packages not just a CLI, but also command knowledge for agents to install into their own skill directories.

### Zeitleiste

- 2026-01-16: 1.0.0 appears as the first official changelog entry.
- 2026-03-31: 1.34.0 added read-only OAuth mode for safer autonomous tool use.
- 2026-05-07: 1.62.0 added GitHub Copilot skill installation instructions.
- 2026-06-29: 1.75.3 fixed Pi skill installation in the agent directory.
