Todoist

What is the Todoist tool?

The Todoist tool is a built-in capability in the Agno framework that allows AI agents to manage todoist tasks and projects. When added to an agent in Agno Builder, the agent can autonomously decide when to invoke this tool based on the user's request.

This tool requires a TODOIST_API_TOKEN environment variable. Get your API key at todoist.com.

How to use Todoist in Agno Builder

1. 1

   Create an agent

   Drag an Agent node onto the canvas in Agno Builder, or use one of the built-in templates.

2. 2

   Enable Todoist

   Click the agent, go to the Tools tab, and toggle on "Todoist" from the productivity category.

3. 3

   Add your API key

   Enter your TODOIST_API_TOKEN in the tool configuration. Your key stays in your browser and is never stored on our servers.

4. 4

   Open the chat panel and send a message. The agent will automatically use Todoist when relevant.

5. 5

   Export Python code

   Click File > Export Python to get clean, runnable code with the correct imports for Todoist.

    name="Todoist Agent",
    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o"),
    tools=[TodoistTools()],
    instructions=["Use the todoist tool to help the user."],
    markdown=True,
)

agent.print_response("Help me with a todoist task")
