What You Need

  • macOS + Apple Reminders
  • remindctl: brew install steipete/tap/remindctl
  • jq: brew install jq
  • OpenClaw gateway running
  • Cron job (LaunchAgent, 3AM daily)

What It Does

Agent executes natural language commands:

Research (web, books, skills)
File operations (edit ROADMAP, create notes, git commits)
Calendar (create events, recurring schedules)
APIs (GitHub issues, Home Assistant, Jira)
Automation (anything you can describe)

Natural language → Agent figures out HOW → Executes → Reports back with 🤖
