obsidian-tasks
Creates and manages task notes in an Obsidian vault - one note per task, identified by a type property set to task and collected by a Bases file, carrying a done checkbox, due, priority, category, and an RRULE frequency. Use this skill when the user wants to add a task, mark one done, change its priority or due date, roll a recurring chore forward after doing it, or ask what to work on next - what are my top tasks, what is overdue, what should I do this weekend, add mowing the lawn to my tasks, I just changed the oil. Also use it when the user mentions their task base, a task repo, a task note's done state or frequency, or a backlog of home, yard, or vehicle chores. Do not use it for checkbox tasks inline in note bodies - what the obsidian tasks command lists - do not use it to review the whole base or to sweep out finished tasks - groom my tasks, what is stale - which is obsidian-task-grooming; and do not use it for general vault reading, searching, or note editing - obsidian-vault covers those.
- Compatibility
- Requires the obsidian CLI and a vault whose task notes carry a type property of task, collected by a Bases file
