Feature request: support recurrence rules (--repeat hourly/daily/weekly/monthly) #104
There's currently no way to set recurrence rules on reminders via the CLI. The macOS Reminders app supports repeating reminders (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly), but reminders-cli doesn't expose this functionality.
Use case
I use reminders-cli to programmatically create reminders (e.g., flight check-in reminders). For time-sensitive tasks, I want them to repeat hourly until completed — so they keep nagging me until I actually do them. Currently I have to open the Reminders app manually to set the repeat.
If you need this today, I built remi - an Apple Reminders CLI (also a Skill and MCP server) that ships with --repeat support for daily, weekly, monthly, every N weeks, day-of-week, etc. It also handles sections with iCloud sync, which was the original thing I was trying to solve. Might help as a stopgap.
