Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
batch_edit_itemsA

Edit up to 100 tasks/projects in one call with preview and per-item read-back verification. Earlier edits remain if a later item fails.

server_infoA

Report server build, executable, OmniFocus version/capabilities and automation connectivity.

search_automation_apiA

Search installed OmniFocus API docs (4.9+). Returns paginated TypeScript declarations and comments; does not execute code.

dump_databaseA

Gets the current state of your OmniFocus database

add_omnifocus_taskA

Add a new task to OmniFocus. Before creating a task that may already exist, call find_similar_tasks with the same name and reuse the returned id instead if a strong match comes back.

add_projectB

Add a new project to OmniFocus

remove_itemB

Remove a task or project from OmniFocus

edit_itemC

Edit a task or project in OmniFocus. Supports: rename, set/clear dates (due, defer, planned), flag/unflag, set status (complete, drop, reopen), add/remove/replace tags, set estimated minutes, move to different project/parent task/inbox.

move_taskA

Move an existing task to a project, parent task, or inbox

batch_add_itemsA

Add multiple tasks or projects to OmniFocus in a single operation. Supports tempId/parentTempId hierarchy wiring, dryRun preview, stopOnError, and atomic rollback. Before adding tasks that may already exist, call find_similar_tasks for each name and drop or replace any item with a strong match — batch creation multiplies duplicates.

batch_remove_itemsA

Remove multiple tasks or projects from OmniFocus in a single operation

get_task_by_idA

Get information about a specific task by ID or name

get_today_completed_tasksC

Get tasks completed today - view today's accomplishments

get_inbox_tasksB

Get tasks from OmniFocus inbox perspective

get_flagged_tasksB

Get flagged tasks from OmniFocus with optional project filtering

get_forecast_tasksA

Get tasks from OmniFocus forecast perspective (due/deferred tasks in date range)

get_tasks_by_tagA

Get tasks filtered by OmniFocus tags (labels like @home, @work, @urgent). Use this for tag-based filtering, NOT for custom perspective names. Tags are labels assigned to individual tasks.

filter_tasksA

Advanced task filtering: status, dates (due/defer/planned/completed/added/modified/dropped), project, folder tree, tags, name/regex, note, repeat, estimate — plus and/or/not clauses, countOnly, field projection, and offset paging.

list_custom_perspectivesA

List all custom perspectives defined in OmniFocus. Pass includeRules to also get each perspective's filter rules and aggregation.

get_custom_perspective_tasksA

Get tasks from a specific OmniFocus custom perspective by name. Use this when user refers to perspective names like 'Today', 'Weekly Review', 'This Week' etc. - these are custom views created in OmniFocus, NOT tags. Supports hierarchical tree display of task relationships.

append_to_noteB

Append text to a task or project's note without overwriting existing content

uncomplete_taskA

Mark a completed task as incomplete again

complete_taskA

Complete a task. Already-completed tasks are unchanged; repeating tasks advance on each call, so do not blindly retry.

set_task_repetitionA

Set or clear a repeating schedule on a task. Use the structured fields (frequency/interval/daysOfWeek/daysOfMonth/count/endDate) — e.g. 2nd Tuesday monthly — or pass a raw iCal RRULE via rule_string. Verified by read-back.

list_projectsA

List and filter OmniFocus projects by folder, status, stalled state, with sorting and pagination

search_projectsA

Search OmniFocus projects by name query

get_project_countsA

Get aggregate project counts by status (active, on hold, completed, dropped, stalled)

get_task_countsB

Get aggregate task counts with optional filters (project, tag, flagged, date range). Returns total, available, completed, overdue, due soon, flagged, deferred.

list_foldersA

List all OmniFocus folders with project counts

get_folderA

Get details of an OmniFocus folder including its projects and subfolders

create_folderB

Create a new folder in OmniFocus, optionally nested under a parent folder

update_folderA

Update an OmniFocus folder's name or status

delete_folderA

Delete an OmniFocus folder. WARNING: this also deletes all projects inside the folder.

list_tagsA

List all OmniFocus tags with available task counts, filterable by status

search_tagsA

Search OmniFocus tags by name query

create_tagA

Create a new tag in OmniFocus, optionally nested under a parent tag

update_tagA

Update an OmniFocus tag's name or status

delete_tagC

Delete an OmniFocus tag

list_subtasksA

List children (subtasks) of a task, optionally recursive to show full hierarchy

duplicate_taskA

Duplicate an existing task, optionally into a different project. Copies name, note, dates, flags, tags.

batch_move_tasksA

Move multiple tasks to a project, parent task, or inbox in a single operation

list_notificationsA

List all notifications (reminders) on a task

add_notificationA

Add a notification (reminder) to a task — absolute date or relative to due date

remove_notificationA

Remove a notification (reminder) from a task by index

reorder_taskA

Reorder a task within its container — move before/after a sibling, or to beginning/ending. Controls next action in sequential projects.

manage_reviewsA

Project review workflow. 'list_due' lists projects whose review date has arrived (all: true = every scheduled project); 'mark_reviewed' stamps one project or up to 100 via projectIds and advances each next review date by its own interval; 'set_schedule' sets the review interval (unit + steps).

convert_task_to_projectA

Promote an existing task into a full project, keeping its subtasks, tags, and note. Optionally file it into a folder; without one the new project lands at the top level of the library.

analyzeA

Read-only analytics over the OmniFocus database: health_snapshot, velocity, overdue_clusters, or stalled_projects. Returns counts, rates, lists and dates as markdown — no scores and no recommendations — so the caller does the interpreting.

update_perspective_rulesA

Replace a custom perspective's filter rules (and optionally its aggregation). Overwrites — read current rules first via list_custom_perspectives includeRules. Keys are validated before writing (OmniFocus silently accepts invalid rules), the write is read-back verified with rollback, and the previous rules are returned for undo.

find_similar_tasksA

Find existing OmniFocus tasks whose names are similar to a proposed new task name. Run this BEFORE creating a task that might already exist — it returns ranked matches with similarity scores and task IDs so you can reuse an existing task instead of creating a duplicate. Tolerant of typos, word reordering, and partial names.

manage_attachmentsA

List, read, add, or remove file attachments on a task or project. 'read' returns small files inline as base64 and writes larger ones to an absolute savePath; 'add' takes either base64 content or an absolute filePath. 10MB limit either way.

app_controlA

Application-level OmniFocus control: start a sync, step the undo/redo stack, read/set/clear the sidebar focus of the front window, or reveal (select) a task or project. Undo and redo are destructive and require confirm: true — the top of the undo stack is often the user's own manual edit.

search_itemsA

Search tasks, projects, folders, and tags in one pass by name (optionally notes). Case-insensitive substring match; returns ids grouped by type with honest per-type totals.

TDQS

B3.3/5.0

Scored across 53 tools

Disambiguation2/5

Several task-retrieval tools overlap substantially: filter_tasks can express flag, tag, date, project, and inbox queries, yet dedicated get_flagged_tasks, get_today_completed_tasks, get_inbox_tasks, get_forecast_tasks, and get_tasks_by_tag are also present. Single/batch variants and complete_task/edit_item create further selection ambiguity. Descriptions help, but an agent will often have multiple valid tools for the same request.

Naming Consistency4/5

Most tools follow a snake_case verb_noun pattern such as list_projects, create_tag, delete_folder, and complete_task. Exceptions like server_info, analyze, and app_control, plus mixed object specificity (add_omnifocus_task vs add_project), keep it from being fully consistent.

Tool Count2/5

53 tools is well over the threshold where agents can easily navigate a tool list. Many tools are parameterized variants of one another—single vs batch, generic filter vs specialized getters—so the count feels inflated rather than curated.

Completeness4/5

The server covers task/project CRUD, folders, tags, notifications, attachments, reviews, perspectives, and app control, so there are no obvious dead ends. Minor gaps remain, such as no create/delete for custom perspectives and no dedicated get-project-by-id, but core OmniFocus workflows are well covered.
