Reminders Skill

Set and manage one-time or recurring reminders. Stores all data locally in SQLite. No external APIs required.

Features

• One-time reminders: Set reminders for specific dates/times
• Recurring reminders: Daily, weekly, or monthly recurring reminders
• Natural language parsing: "in 2 hours", "tomorrow", "14:30"
• Snooze functionality: Temporarily dismiss reminders
• Daemon mode: Check for due reminders (for cron/systemd integration)
• SQLite storage: All data stored locally

Capabilities

Add a one-time reminder

npx reminders add "<datetime>" "<message>"

Datetime formats:

• "2026-02-15 14:00" - Specific date and time
• "tomorrow" - Tomorrow at current time
• "in 2 hours" - Relative time
• "in 30 minutes" - Relative time in minutes
• "in 3 days" - Relative time in days
• "14:30" - Today at specific time (or tomorrow if passed)

Examples:

npx reminders add "in 30 minutes" "Call mom"
npx reminders add "tomorrow" "Dentist appointment"
npx reminders add "2026-02-15 09:00" "Team meeting"
npx reminders add "14:30" "Standup meeting"

Add a recurring reminder

npx reminders recurring <type> "<time>" "<message>"

Types: daily, weekly, monthly

Examples:

npx reminders recurring daily "09:00" "Take vitamins"
npx reminders recurring weekly "Monday 10:00" "Weekly review"
npx reminders recurring monthly "1st 12:00" "Pay rent"

List reminders

npx reminders list                    # List pending reminders
npx reminders list --all              # Include completed
npx reminders list --limit 20         # Limit results

List due reminders

npx reminders due                     # Show reminders that are due now

Get reminder details

npx reminders get <id>

Complete a reminder

npx reminders complete <id>

For recurring reminders, this schedules the next occurrence. For one-time reminders, it moves to history.

Snooze a reminder

npx reminders snooze <id> <minutes>

Example:

npx reminders snooze 123 30          # Snooze for 30 minutes

Delete a reminder

npx reminders delete <id>

View history

npx reminders history                 # Show completed reminders
npx reminders history --limit 50      # Show last 50

View statistics

npx reminders stats                   # Show pending, completed, overdue counts

Daemon mode

Check for due reminders (for use with cron or systemd):

npx reminders daemon                  # Output JSON with due reminders

Cron example:

# Check for reminders every minute
* * * * * /usr/bin/node /path/to/dist/cli.js daemon | some-notifier

Health check

npx reminders health                  # Check database status

Test natural language parsing

npx reminders parse "in 2 hours"      # Test how a datetime string is parsed

Storage

SQLite database at ~/.openclaw/skills/reminders/reminders.db:

• reminders - All active reminders with schedule info
• history - Completed one-time reminders

  message: "Call mom",
  scheduledAt: new Date("2026-02-15T14:00:00"),

  scheduledAt: when,
});

// Add recurring reminder
await reminders.addRecurringReminder({
