Apple Reminders and Calendar CLI (event)

Use the event CLI to manage Apple Reminders and Calendars directly from the terminal. You can create, view, update, and delete reminders and subtasks, as well as view and create calendar events.

Setup & Constraints

• macOS-only.
• Requires Apple Notes.app, Reminders.app, and Calendar.app to be accessible.
• If prompted, the user must grant Automation/Full Access permissions in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Reminders / Calendars.
• Some advanced reminder features (tags, flagged, parentTitle, url) require the AdvancedReminderEdit Shortcut to be installed (https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/b578334075754da9ba6e50b501515808). If it's not installed, use the --no-shortcuts flag to disable these features and only use basic fields.

General Usage

All commands support the --json flag to output results in JSON format, which is easier for you to parse.
