Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00970 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00485 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00194 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00097 |
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.
This is a copy
100% identical to apple-reminders — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 131 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Apple Reminders
Use remindctl to manage Apple Reminders directly from the terminal. Tasks sync across all Apple devices via iCloud.
Prerequisites
- macOS with Reminders.app
- Install:
brew install steipete/tap/remindctl - Grant Reminders permission when prompted
- Check:
remindctl status/ Request:remindctl authorize
When to Use
- User mentions "reminder" or "Reminders app"
- Creating personal to-dos with due dates that sync to iOS
- Managing Apple Reminders lists
- User wants tasks to appear on their iPhone/iPad
When NOT to Use
- Scheduling agent alerts → use the cronjob tool instead
- Calendar events → use Apple Calendar or Google Calendar
- Project task management → use GitHub Issues, Notion, etc.
- If user says "remind me" but means an agent alert → clarify first

Due Time vs Alarm / Early Nudge
--due and --alarm are different fields:
--duesets the reminder's due date/time.--alarmsets the EventKit alarm/notification trigger. Timed due reminders may default to an alarm at the due time, but pass--alarmexplicitly when the user asks for an earlier nudge.
For a reminder due at 2:00 PM with a notification 30 minutes earlier:
remindctl add --title "Hairdresser" --due "2026-05-15 14:00" --alarm "2026-05-15 13:30"
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.
