I've used Cultured Code's Things app for over a decade, but really feeling the lock-in now that I want to start piping stuff to agents. There's unofficial MCP servers, but under the covers they seem to be a lot of hacks (applescript, shortcuts etc).
I would love some way to talk to my to-do list to be helped to triage it, and have it apply the verbal feedback. Any suggestions?

I tried using Gemma 4 and qwen3.5 (in Pi), passing it a copy of Things's .sqlite db. I wanted them to figure out the schema and deduce a query that would just return inbox items. I gave them examples of inbox items, and items in logbook or Today (that should not be matched). After an hour I had to give up - neither of them could work it out 💩

@iandundas With 343 items still to be triaged in my inbox, I feel you and am interested as well. They could provide an API or SDK.
