Describes the environment variables required to run the server.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
OMNIFOCUS_TIMEOUT_SECONDSNoOptional: OMNIFOCUS_TIMEOUT_SECONDS (default 60) if a large database needs a longer OmniJS budget.60

Instructions

Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.

This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
omnifocus_statusA

Health check for OmniFocus: running state, Pro vs Standard, undo availability, and headline counts.

Use this first when a session starts or a call fails. It never dumps tasks.

query_tasksA

Read tasks from Inbox, Flagged, Forecast, tags, projects, custom perspectives, or an ad-hoc filter.

Results are paginated and compact by default. Use count_tasks when you only need totals. Custom perspectives (source=custom) are saved views, not tags.

count_tasksA

Count matching tasks with a status breakdown and known estimated minutes.

Use this before listing when you need scale, daily capacity, or a review total.

query_projectsA

List projects, including review metadata and stalled detection.

query_foldersC

List OmniFocus folders. detailed includes child projects and subfolders.

query_tagsA

List or search tags, including hierarchy paths such as 'Work / Deep'.

query_perspectivesA

List built-in and custom perspectives, or read a custom perspective's filter rules.

Custom perspectives require OmniFocus Pro. This does not return the tasks inside a perspective; use query_tasks with source=custom for that.

read_attachmentA

Read one attachment previously listed on a task. Images are returned as image content when possible.

add_taskB

Create one task, optionally with subtasks, tags, dates, and a repeat rule.

add_projectC

Create a project, optionally inside a folder and with an initial task list.

add_itemsA

Create many tasks or projects in one OmniJS call. Later items can parent to earlier names.

create_project_from_outlineA

Create one verified project tree from a user-confirmed outline. Rolls back with Undo on failure.

edit_itemC

Edit a task or project, including optional move, tags, dates, and status.

complete_itemsA

Mark tasks or projects complete, incomplete, or dropped. Repeating completes report the generated instance.

move_itemsA

Move tasks to a project, parent task, or the Inbox. Cycles are rejected before any move.

remove_itemsA

Delete tasks, projects, or folders. First call returns a cascade preview and confirmToken; second call executes.

duplicate_itemsB

Duplicate tasks or whole projects. Duplicating a project is useful as a template.

set_repetitionA

Set, update, or clear a task's OmniFocus 4.7+ repetition rule. Restores the previous rule on failure.

manage_folderB

Create, rename, move, or delete a folder. Deleting a folder also deletes its projects; that path requires confirmToken.

manage_tagA

Create, rename, nest, or delete a tag. On-hold tags block next actions.

manage_perspectiveA

Update a custom perspective's filter rules in place. OmniFocus cannot create or delete perspectives via automation.

manage_notificationsC

List, add, or remove task reminders (absolute or due-relative).

append_noteB

Append to a task or project note without overwriting it.

mark_reviewedA

Mark confirmed projects reviewed with one timestamp and return the OmniFocus-generated next review dates.

omnifocus_sessionB

Undo or redo the last OmniFocus change, run database clean-up, or reveal an item in the OmniFocus UI.

TDQS

B3.4/5.0

Scored across 25 tools

Disambiguation3/5

Most query/add/manage tools have distinct scopes, but there is real overlap: edit_item can move items like move_items, add_task/add_items/create_project_from_outline all create items, and remove_items/manage_folder both delete folders. Descriptions help, but an agent could still pick the wrong tool in several cases.

Naming Consistency4/5

The snake_case verb_noun pattern is largely consistent with query_*, add_*, and manage_* groups. Minor deviations like omnifocus_status, omnifocus_session, and the longer create_project_from_outline keep it from being perfectly uniform.

Tool Count3/5

25 tools sits at the heavy end of the range for a single server. It is comprehensive for OmniFocus, but some overlapping creation/deletion paths and utility tools make the set feel larger than strictly necessary.

Completeness4/5

The surface covers task/project/folder/tag/notification lifecycles, repetition, review, undo, and status checks. The main gaps are attachment creation and perspective creation/deletion, which are largely platform limitations, so core workflows are still supported.
