ms-todo
Manage Microsoft To Do tasks using the Microsoft Graph API. Works on all platforms.
Setup (one-time)
1. Register an Azure App
- Go to Azure Portal > App registrations
- Click New registration
- Name:
OpenClaw Todo
- Supported account types: Personal Microsoft accounts only
- Redirect URI: leave blank
- After creation → Authentication → Advanced settings → Set Allow public client flows to Yes
- Go to API permissions → Add permission → Microsoft Graph → Delegated →
Tasks.ReadWrite and offline_access
- Copy the Application (client) ID
2. Authenticate via Device Code Flow
Request a device code:
curl -s -X POST "https://login.microsoftonline.com/consumers/oauth2/v2.0/devicecode" \
-d "client_id=$MS_TODO_CLIENT_ID&scope=Tasks.ReadWrite offline_access"
The response will show a user_code and verification_uri. Open the URL in a browser, enter the code, and sign in.
Then poll for the token:
curl -s -X POST "https://login.microsoftonline.com/consumers/oauth2/v2.0/token" \
-d "client_id=$MS_TODO_CLIENT_ID&device_code=DEVICE_CODE_HERE&grant_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:device_code"
Save the refresh_token from the response as MS_TODO_REFRESH_TOKEN.
3. Configure OpenClaw
Add to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:
{
skills: {
entries: {
"ms-todo": {
env: {
MS_TODO_CLIENT_ID: "your-azure-app-client-id",
MS_TODO_REFRESH_TOKEN: "your-refresh-token",
},
},
},
},
}
Getting an Access Token
Tokens expire after ~1 hour. Refresh before each session:
ACCESS_TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST "https://login.microsoftonline.com/consumers/oauth2/v2.0/token" \
-d "client_id=$MS_TODO_CLIENT_ID&refresh_token=$MS_TODO_REFRESH_TOKEN&grant_type=refresh_token&scope=Tasks.ReadWrite offline_access" \
| jq -r '.access_token')
Use $ACCESS_TOKEN in the Authorization header for all commands below.
Commands

curl -s "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/todo/lists" \

Notes
- Microsoft Graph To Do API only supports delegated (user) auth — no app-only/service accounts.
- Use
offline_access scope to get a refresh token that works indefinitely.
- The default task list (called "Tasks") always exists for every user.
$LIST_ID can be found from the "List all task lists" command.
- Pipe through
jq for readable output; omit jq if not installed.
- Works from WSL, macOS, Linux — anywhere
curl is available.
