apple-reminders

apple-reminders is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from AtomicBot-ai/atomic-agent. It costs 31 tokens per session (1,419 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command-line tool for managing Apple Reminders on macOS. It can work with reminder lists and add, complete, list, or delete reminders, which sync through iCloud.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to list reminders, create new ones, mark them complete, delete them, or manage the lists that contain them.
Why use it?
It lets an agent manage reminders from the terminal instead of requiring manual entry in the Reminders app. It also handles missing installation or permissions by reporting the relevant setup problem.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

apple-reminders scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

apple-reminders

Drive Apple Reminders from the terminal via remindctl. Reminders sync across Apple devices through iCloud.

Setup check (lazy — do NOT probe every turn)

Do not run a remindctl status probe before each request. Just run the remindctl command the user asked for directly. Only when a command fails map the error to a Setup playbook branch:

  • stderr contains command not found: remindctlSetup playbook → "remindctl is not installed".
  • output says permission denied / not determined / restrictedSetup playbook → "Reminders permission missing".
  • macOS not detected → reply that this skill is macOS-only and stop. Do NOT try to install anything.

If unsure which branch applies, capture stderr and ask the user before proceeding.

Setup playbook (when prerequisites are missing)

When a check fails, the agent's job is to OFFER concrete help and EXECUTE the fix itself — not to dump install instructions on the user. Use this dialogue shape:

  1. State plainly what is missing (one short reply).
  2. Offer the most direct remediation the agent can perform via tools.
  3. Wait for the user's yes/no reply.
  4. On yes, execute the fix (the runtime approval gate will surface the command for confirmation).
  5. Retry the original request; only then proceed.

remindctl is not installed

Reply (solo reply step):

"The remindctl utility is not installed. I can install it via Homebrew (brew install steipete/tap/remindctl) — it needs your confirmation and takes about 20 seconds. Install it?"

On yes:

[{ "tool": "os.shell.run", "args": { "cmd": "brew", "args": ["install", "steipete/tap/remindctl"] } }]

After install, retry the original command.

If brew itself is missing, do NOT attempt to bootstrap Homebrew — reply: "You don't have Homebrew installed. Install it manually from https://brew.sh/, then I'll continue."

Reminders permission missing

Unlike Notes Automation, remindctl has its own CLI command to request the permission — the agent CAN do it directly. Offer + execute:

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
