Aggregate TODO deadlines across multiple projects into a single agenda-style CLI view.

Project description

todo-hub

todo-hub is a lightweight CLI tool that aggregates TODO tasks across multiple projects and presents them as a deadline-focused agenda.

It scans TODO.md files from different repositories and shows tasks grouped by urgency with a clean, colorized terminal view.

Perfect for developers managing many small projects.

Features

  • Scan TODO files across multiple projects
  • Parse tasks written as Markdown checkboxes
  • Detect deadlines using @YYYY-MM-DD
  • Group tasks by urgency:
    • Overdue
    • This week
    • Later
    • Unscheduled
  • Agenda-style weekly view
  • Colorized terminal output
  • Deterministic color for each project
  • Simple configuration via config.toml
  • Fast and dependency-light
  • High test coverage (~88%)

Installation

Recommended (using pipx)

pipx installs CLI tools in isolated environments and makes them available globally.

pipx install todo-hub

Then run:

todo-hub

If pipx is not installed:

python -m pip install --user pipx
pipx ensurepath

Using pip

You can also install with pip, although pipx is recommended for CLI tools.

pip install todo-hub

Development Installation

For development or testing from the repository:

git clone https://github.com/cwahyu/todo-hub.git
cd todo-hub

pipx install -e .

Usage

Run:

todo-hub

Example output:

Overdue:
- [ ] fix parser @2026-03-10 (-4d) #mudita

This week:
  Today
  - [ ] finish CLI @2026-03-14 (0d) #todo-hub

  Tomorrow
  - [ ] improve parser @2026-03-15 (1d) #mudita

  Mar 16
  - [ ] refactor scanner @2026-03-16 (2d) #todo-hub

Later:
- [ ] redesign module @2026-03-25 (11d) #todo-hub

Unscheduled:
- [ ] research API #blog

TODO Format

todo-hub scans Markdown files named:

TODO.md
todo.md

Tasks must follow this format:

- [ ] implement feature @2026-04-01

Deadline syntax:

@YYYY-MM-DD

Examples:

- [ ] finish CLI @2026-03-20
- [ ] refactor parser @2026-03-21
- [ ] improve documentation

Completed tasks are ignored:

- [x] finished task

Configuration

Projects are defined in config.toml.

Example:

[[project]]
name = "mudita"
path = "~/projects/mudita"

[[project]]
name = "todo-hub"
path = "~/projects/todo-hub"

Each project path will be scanned recursively for TODO.md.

Why todo-hub?

Many developers maintain multiple repositories with scattered TODO lists.

todo-hub provides a single unified view of upcoming work across all projects.

Instead of searching through repositories, you can simply run:

todo-hub

and immediately see what needs attention.

Philosophy

todo-hub is designed around a few simple principles.

1. Deadlines over task lists

Most TODO tools focus on managing tasks inside a single project.

todo-hub focuses on deadlines across projects.

The goal is to answer one question quickly:

What needs my attention today?

Instead of browsing multiple repositories, todo-hub aggregates tasks into a single agenda-style view.

2. Plain text first

Tasks are stored in simple Markdown files:

TODO.md

This keeps the workflow:

  • transparent
  • version-controlled
  • editor-friendly
  • portable across tools

No databases, no lock-in.

3. Minimal syntax

todo-hub only requires two simple conventions:

task description @YYYY-MM-DD

Example:

implement CLI @2026-03-20

Everything else is optional.

4. Works with existing repositories

todo-hub does not require special project setup.

It simply scans for:

TODO.md
todo.md

in configured project folders.

This makes it easy to adopt gradually across existing repositories.

5. Fast feedback

The tool is designed for a quick daily check:

todo-hub

Output is grouped by urgency:

Overdue
This week
Later
Unscheduled

This makes it easy to see what requires attention immediately.

6. Terminal-first workflow

todo-hub is intentionally simple and optimized for terminal use:

  • fast startup
  • minimal dependencies
  • readable CLI output
  • colorized task urgency

It fits naturally into a developer's daily workflow.

7. Small and maintainable

The project architecture is intentionally minimal:

config → scan → parse → schedule → present

Each module has a single responsibility, making the codebase easy to understand and extend.
