Todoist CLI for Headless Automation

Use KosmoKrator as a non-interactive integration runtime for local automations and wrappers.

Use headless automation when another tool needs a stable local command surface. The Todoist CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Todoist CLI for Headless Automation
kosmokrator integrations:configure todoist --set access_token="$TODOIST_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call todoist.todoist_close_task '{"id":"example_id"}' --json
