Documentation
Everything you need to get work done in createtodo — from your first todo to wiring up AI agents that file and finish work alongside you.
Getting started
Concepts
- Todos & subtodosThe unit of work in createtodo — capture it fast, enrich it when it matters, break it down when it grows.
- ListsOrganize todos into lists — one per project, area, or client — and shape how each one is displayed.
- Status & priorityTrack where each todo stands and what deserves attention first.
- LabelsTag todos with labels to slice work across lists — by theme, kind, or anything else you care about.
- Dependencies & relationsConnect todos that block, relate to, or belong to each other — and let "ready" work sort itself out.
Interface
- Command paletteOne keystroke to reach everything — search todos, jump between lists, and run commands without leaving the keyboard.
- Keyboard shortcutsThe complete shortcut reference, generated from the same registry the app itself uses.
- Archive & trashFinished work stays browsable in the archive; deleted todos are recoverable from the trash.
- Offline & syncLocal-first storage makes the app instant and offline-capable; real-time sync keeps every device and teammate current.
For agents
- MCP serverGive any MCP client — Claude, Cursor, and friends — structured tools to work in your createtodo workspace.
- The ct command lineManage todos from the terminal with JSON-first output — built for scripts, git hooks, and coding agents.
- API keysWorkspace credentials for the MCP server and the ct CLI — one key per agent.
