Command Notes

• Turn Into... commands will automatically embed an ID like gtask:... or todoist:... for syncing.
• Sync from Remote is shown as a button next to tasks but can also be executed manually.
• Only one remote platform is active at a time.

Platform-Specific Commands

Some commands are specific to each platform adapter. They are registered dynamically when the adapter is active.

Platform	Command	Location
Google Tasks	Turn into Google Task	TurnIntoGTaskCommand.ts
Todoist	Turn into Todoist Task	TurnIntoTodoistCommand.ts

These commands follow a shared naming convention and are defined in their respective remote/{platform}/ folder.

Custom Command Registration

Developers can register new commands by modifying plugin.ts:

plugin.addCommand({
  id: 'turn-into-custom-task',
  name: 'Turn into Custom Task',
  callback: () => executeTurnCommand(...)
});

See Development Guide for details.
