Todoist, filled in from the conversation.
Say what needs doing and when, ask what is due today, and Cedric proposes the task in Todoist before it saves.

- Todoist works when everything gets into it, and most things get decided somewhere else.
- Say it once: "send the contract to Alder Friday morning, high priority" becomes a task with that due date and priority.
- Ask what is due today, what is in one project, or what carries a label, and the list comes back in the thread.
- Rescheduling, completing, reopening, moving to a project or breaking a task into sub-tasks is one approval.
- Deletions and bulk changes are permanent, so Cedric confirms them, and Todoist's rate limits apply.
What can a Todoist AI agent do?
Capture is the main job. Cedric creates tasks in Todoist with due dates written in plain language, priorities, descriptions and labels, so the thing agreed in a thread becomes a task without retyping it. It breaks work down by adding sub-tasks under an existing task, and organizes work by creating projects and sections and moving tasks between them. Labels get created and applied across tasks for sorting. This is the capture half of an executive assistant that reads the same channels you do.
Reading is the other half. Cedric lists and filters tasks by project, label or saved filter to show what is due today or coming up, and reads the comments on tasks or projects, including notes shared with collaborators. It looks up the collaborators on a shared project and assigns tasks to them, so "give the design review to whoever is on the Website project with me" resolves to a person.
Changes follow your day. Cedric completes, reopens, reschedules or deletes tasks as plans move, and adds comments to a task or project. Every write is proposed before it is saved. Deletions and bulk changes to tasks and projects are permanent, so those are confirmed with the exact list shown, and requests are rate limited, so a sweep across a large account is paced.
Out of a meeting
Four things to do, captured once.
Emily Carter9:14 AM
@Cedric from the Alder call: add "send revised contract" to the Alder project, due Friday morning, priority 1, with sub-tasks for the pricing table and the legal review. Then push everything due today in Admin to tomorrow.
CedricAPP9:15 AM
Proposed in Todoist: task "Send revised contract" in project Alder, due Friday 5 September at 09:00, priority 1, label client, with two sub-tasks, "Update pricing table" and "Legal review". In Admin, 3 tasks are due today: "Expense report", "Renew domain", "Book travel for the offsite"; all three move to tomorrow, 4 September. Nothing saved yet.

Connect Todoist in a minute
No setup project, no workflow builder, no field mapping. The flow is the same for every tool Cedric connects to.
- 01
Install Cedric where your team talks
One click. It joins your Slack like any other member, and everyone shares the same Cedric.
- 02
Connect Todoist from the dashboard
Open the Integrations page and sign in with Todoist on its own screen. Cedric never sees or stores your password, and you can revoke the connection in one click at any time.
A fresh connection can look but not touch: read-only until you say otherwise.
- 03
Ask in plain words
Back in the channel, try it: "what is due today?". You describe the outcome; Cedric picks the Todoist actions the ask needs. There is nothing to configure.
Connect for the whole workspace so the team shares it, or keep the connection personal. Two accounts are fine too; each gets a short name.
- 04
Let it become routine
Schedule the recurring version of the ask, and let Cedric fold Todoist into bigger jobs that cross your other tools. Anything that would leave your workspace still comes back as a preview to approve first.
Better in company
A task in Todoist often starts as an email in Gmail; ask Cedric to turn the thread into a task with the sender and the deadline in the description, and to draft the reply that promises it.
The due date belongs in Todoist and the time to do it belongs in Google Calendar; Cedric can set the task and block the hour from one message, and the shared notes in Notion can carry the same list.
Where the limits are
Todoist is a catalog connection, not a built-in playbook. Cedric works from what the Todoist connection can read and do; ask in plain words and it says what it can reach there, and what it cannot.
Deletions and bulk changes are permanent. Cedric can delete a task or reschedule a whole project at once, and it shows the exact list before doing either. Completing is what it proposes when a task is done.
Todoist's rate limits apply. A sweep across a large account, every project and label, is paced rather than done in one burst, so a full review takes a moment longer than one project.
Cedric sees what the Todoist connection grants and nothing more. Access is scoped, logged, and revocable from the dashboard, effective immediately.
Nothing sends itself. An email, a post, a change to a record: anything with consequences comes back as a preview for a human yes. That is the design, not a beta caveat.
FAQ
Yes. Todoist is one of the 3,200+ apps in Cedric's catalog: connect it once from the dashboard, on Todoist's own sign-in screen, and ask in plain words. There is no built-in playbook for it, so Cedric works from what the connection can read and do, and tells you when something is out of reach.
No. Reminders and recurring due dates you set in Todoist keep working as before. Cedric creates and updates tasks the way you would, and Todoist handles the recurrence and the notifications itself.
Yes, on shared projects. It looks up the collaborators on a project and assigns the task to one of them, and it can add a comment so they see the context. Assigning is a write, so it is proposed before it is saved.
Connect it for the whole workspace and everyone shares it, with one person authorising once. A connection you would rather not share, a personal inbox for instance, can stay personal to you.
Yes, and it starts that way: a fresh connection can look but not touch until you say otherwise. Even with write access granted, anything that changes or sends waits for an approval.
