TaskAI

Manage your tasks in plain Markdown, powered by local AI.

Features

  • Edit your tasks in ~/.taskai/tasks.md using any Markdown format.
  • Tasks are automatically organized, updated, and deleted in a local JSON file.
  • Each task gets an AI-enhanced title and actionable description using Ollama's mistral:7b model.
  • No complex UI—just files and automation.

Usage

  1. Open or create ~/.taskai/tasks.md and write your tasks as Markdown list items.
  2. On save, TaskAI will:
    • Add new tasks with sequential IDs
    • Update changed tasks
    • Remove deleted tasks
    • Enhance each task with AI
  3. All data is stored locally in ~/.taskai/tasks.json.

Requirements

  • Node.js (for extension runtime)
  • Ollama with mistral:7b model running locally for AI features

Known Issues
