Things plus

**Expanded personal capture logic and streamlined environment checks.** - Now triggers for natural planning phrases (e.g., “I should…”, “remind me to…”) and concrete future commitments, even when Things is not mentioned directly. - Only blocks writes or prompts for setup when a write action actually fails; no more mandatory pre-flight at session start. - Accepts and rewrites fuzzy action titles into clear next steps for better task management. - Adds duplicate prevention logic: checks for recent or existing tasks before adding new ones. - Clarifies token/auth handling—guides setup only if a specific operation actually fails for missing auth. - Removes legacy/overly detailed setup flow in favor of more predictable, fail-fast behavior.

things-plus 1.2.0 - New test_promt.md - Added a new reference report file: `references/report.md` - Fixed delete ops into one-by-one mode.

fix safety issue

No user-facing changes in this version. - Internal metadata updated to declare required binary (`things`) and primary environment variable (`THINGS_AUTH_TOKEN`). - No code or behavior changes; existing functionality remains unchanged.

- Credential policy updated: now requires `THINGS_AUTH_TOKEN` to be configured locally in the execution environment (not pasted via chat). - Revised setup guidance to emphasize local environment detection and direct, shell-specific export commands. - Chat-based sharing of sensitive tokens is discouraged for improved security. - More precise shell/context detection before providing setup commands. - Task handling now pauses until local credential setup and verification are complete.

**Version 1.1.0 of things-plus introduces improved, safer setup and capture logic:** - Task capture is now limited to concrete, personal intentions; avoids auto-capturing hypothetical examples, quoted text, or indirect discussion. - Pre-flight checks (for Things.app, CLI, and token) now run not just on setup intent, but also on the first real task-management request per session, before any task is handled. - Token setup is more robust: the correct shell/context is detected, export/show commands are tailored, and token verification is performed in the actual agent context before proceeding. - Write operations now require positive verification (not just exit status) via read-back and duplicate prevention before claiming success. - Guidance reduced for non-actionable cases, and setup instructions avoid overwhelming the user with irrelevant shell commands.

Summary: Task capture is now always-on — anything sounding like a task or plan is immediately added to Things, no extra confirmation needed. - Automatically captures any to-do, plan, or intention mentioned by the user into Things without requiring confirmation. - Earlier manual triggers (like "add to Things") are no longer needed for task entry. - Stronger focus on proactive capture, even for casual or passing mentions of tasks. - Maintains all previous setup and safety checks for Things.app, CLI presence, and token before any operations. - All other task management, review, and field handling policies remain unchanged.

- Adds explicit metadata declaring THINGS_AUTH_TOKEN and things CLI as required dependencies. - Now marks THINGS_AUTH_TOKEN as the primary environment variable for operations. - No functional changes to skill behavior; adds OpenClaw compatibility metadata only.

things-plus 1.0.0 – Initial release - Cron is intentionally not used for personal reminders; Things native scheduling is preferred except for background automation. - Integrates with Things 3 on macOS via the `things` CLI for full to-do management: add, update, delete, search, and organize tasks, projects, areas, and tags. - Implements robust setup checks: verifies Things.app and CLI exist, installs CLI when requested, and requires `THINGS_AUTH_TOKEN` for any operations. - Guides first-time setup by confirming environment, helping users set up authentication, and refusing task operations until setup is confirmed. - Reads and writes all standard Things views (Inbox, Today, Upcoming, etc.) and supports both list and object retrieval. - Applies best practices for reminders, deadlines, tags, checklists, and repeats, including rewriting vague to-dos into actionable steps. - Prioritizes user safety by requiring UUID targeting for modifications and dry-runs for risky actions.
