Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_task_listsA | Show every Google Tasks list on the account, with a short alias and the real id. Either can be passed as list_id to the other tools. |
| list_tasksA | List tasks, optionally from one list and/or within a due-date range. Omit list_id to cover every list. Due dates are calendar dates (YYYY-MM-DD): the Google Tasks API cannot store or return a due time. |
| search_tasksA | Find tasks whose title or notes contain the query, across every list. Case-insensitive substring match — the Google Tasks API has no search endpoint, so this filters client-side. Use it to locate a task before acting on it. |
| get_taskA | Full detail for one task, including notes, links and subtask parent. |
| create_taskA | Add a task. Omit list_id for the default list. due is a calendar date (YYYY-MM-DD); resolve relative dates like "Thursday" yourself before calling. parent_id makes it a subtask; previous_id places it after a given sibling. |
| create_tasksA | Add several tasks at once. Use this instead of repeated create_task calls when the user lists multiple things. Each entry may target a different list. |
| update_taskA | Change a task's title, notes or due date. Only the fields you pass are touched — this uses patch, so omitting notes leaves existing notes intact. To remove a due date pass clear_due=true; omitting due leaves it unchanged. Cannot change parent or position — use move_task for that. |
| complete_tasksA | Mark one or more tasks done. This is the most common write by a wide margin — prefer it over update_task for finishing things. Safe to repeat. |
| uncomplete_tasksA | Mark one or more completed tasks as not done again. Safe to repeat. |
| move_taskA | Reorder a task, make it a subtask, or move it to another list. Note that repeating tasks cannot be moved between lists. |
| delete_taskA | Permanently delete a task. This cannot be undone. If the task looks like an instance of a repeating task, this refuses unless force=true, because deleting one instance through the API can delete the whole series. Prefer complete_tasks for finished work. |
| clear_completedB | Hide every completed task in a list. They remain retrievable with include="all" but disappear from the Google Tasks UI. |
| create_task_listC | Create a new task list. |
| delete_task_listA | Permanently delete a task list and every task in it. This cannot be undone. Requires confirm=true. |
