6 days ago Thank you very much for opening up this issue! I am currently a bit overwhelmed by the many requests that arrive each week, so please forgive me, if I fail to respond personally. I am still very likely to at least skim read your request and I'll probably try to fix all (real) bugs if possible and I will likely review every single PR being made (please, give me a heads up if you intent to do so) and I will try to work on popular requests (please upvote via thumbs up on the original issue) whenever possible, but trying to respond to every single issue over the last years has been kind of draining and I need to adjust my approach for this project to remain fun for me and to make any progress with actually coding new stuff. Thanks for your understanding!
This is something that would really elevate the quick/ deliberate entry set (at the very least for the Apple folks, but I think it'll be wider than that).
Instead of having native apps everywhere, it'd be great to have a docker/ self hosted instance that can be pinged via an API to automate interacting with tasks. I can think of many use cases for this, e.g.
Mail ingest: Apple Mail to Apple Shortcut to GPT to SuperProductivity (new task with the right tag, summary, duration, urgency, etc.)
Lock Screen ingest: one-button quick capture not just bound by the desktop app, but available anywhere via API.
Custom ingest presets and user-defined templates: the API alleviates some of the feature pressure from the app itself (e.g. via tools like Apple Shortcuts, people can design their own custom menus that have preconfigured set of e.g. tag allocation/ prioritisation/ etc.)
(this is obviously quite the EPIC, but feels to me like a worthwhile thing to explore)
