It predates the current official Doist td CLI in Homebrew and remains notable as a terminal-first Todoist wrapper with local cache, API-token configuration, and integrations with fuzzy finders. ### Project history The official README identifies the project as an unofficial Todoist CLI client written in Go. It documents commands for listing, showing, adding, modifying, closing, reopening, deleting, syncing, and quick-adding Todoist tasks. The README now distinguishes the Homebrew formula name todoist-cli-go from the official Doist todoist-cli formula, noting that the formula was renamed to make room for the official CLI. It also warns that users must upgrade to v0.23 or later before February 10, 2026 because older versions depend on Todoist APIs scheduled for shutdown. ### Adoption history The project documents installation through Homebrew, the author's tap, AUR packages, Nix/NixOS, Docker, and source builds. That distribution pattern is typical of a popular unofficial CLI: it spread through package managers before the vendor-maintained command arrived. ### How it is used Users register a Todoist API token, run todoist sync, and then use subcommands for task and project operations. The README recommends peco or fzf shell functions for interactive selection, which places the tool in a classic terminal productivity workflow. ### Why package nerds care The package is significant mostly as a naming and migration story. Homebrew users who knew todoist-cli as the Go client later had to distinguish todoist-cli-go from Doist's official todoist-cli, and the README makes that package-name split explicit. ### Timeline - Pre-2026: Distributed as an unofficial Todoist CLI client through Homebrew, AUR, Nix, Docker, and source builds. - 2026: README warns users to upgrade to v0.23 or later before Todoist API shutdown on February 10, 2026. - 2026: README notes the Homebrew formula rename to todoist-cli-go to make room for the official Doist CLI. ### Related projects - Doist/todoist-cli is the official Todoist CLI and is named in the README as a separate tool. - peco and fzf are documented as recommended interactive helpers. ### Sources - current_curation.repo - - source_facts.package-manager ## Security Notes No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for todoist-cli-go.
