calendar-reminders

Calendar reminders pipeline: config-driven wrapper around gcalcli (Google Calendar) plus optional CalDAV source via vdirsyncer+khal, and a reminder planner that outputs a JSON plan for one-shot OpenClaw reminders.

Full skill instructions

gcalcli calendar wrapper + reminder planner

This skill provides:

  • scripts/​calendar — wrapper around gcalcli
  • scripts/​calendar_reminder_plan.py — produces a JSON plan for reminder scheduling
  • references/​openclaw-calendar.example.json — example config format

Config

Copy the example config to a private location and edit it:

  • Default path: ~/​.config/​openclaw/​calendar.json
  • Override with env: OPENCLAW_CALENDAR_CONFIG=/​path/​to/​calendar.json

Requirements

  • Required: python3, gcalcli
  • Optional (for CalDAV/​iCloud): vdirsyncer, khal

Auth (Google)

gcalcli requires OAuth. On headless servers you may need SSH port-forwarding. The wrapper uses --noauth_local_server to print instructions.

Reminder planning

The planner outputs a JSON blob describing reminders to schedule. A separate cron job (or an agent turn) can read it and create one-shot OpenClaw reminders.

Defaults:

  • Ignore birthdays.
  • Timed events are considered important.
  • All-day events only trigger reminders if their title matches configured keywords.

Wiring a daily reminder scheduler (OpenClaw)

Create a daily cron job (e.g. 00:05 local time) that:

  1. If CalDAV is enabled in config, runs the configured vdirsyncer sync command.
  2. Runs scripts/​calendar_reminder_plan.py to get a JSON plan.
  3. For each planned reminder, creates a one-shot OpenClaw systemEvent reminder at reminderAtUtc.
  4. Writes a small state file so you don’t schedule duplicates.

(Our skill intentionally provides the wrapper + planner; scheduling is left to your cron/​agent wiring.)
