apple-reminders

apple-reminders is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from the-open-agent/openagent. It costs 34 tokens per session (818 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command-line interface for managing Apple Reminders from a Mac. It can list, create, edit, complete, and delete reminders, including reminders in specific lists or date ranges.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to view today's, upcoming, overdue, or filtered reminders, and to create or update reminders in Apple Reminders.
Why use it?
It lets scripts and terminal workflows work with the same reminders that sync to Apple devices. This avoids switching to the Reminders app for routine task changes.

About the project

OpenAgent is a self-hostable personal AI assistant that combines language models, document-based retrieval, and autonomous agent loops. It lets people connect model providers and their own knowledge bases, then have agents browse the web, run code, use computers, and call MCP-compatible tools.

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 6d 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.
