name

quadrants

description

Manage Quadrants tasks and projects via natural language. Use when the user wants to create, view, complete, or organize tasks on the Eisenhower Matrix. Supports listing projects, adding tasks (single or bulk), viewing priority tasks, completing tasks, and getting project overviews. Triggers on mentions of "quadrants", "tasks", "to-do", "eisenhower", "priority matrix", or task management requests.

Quadrant Reference

The Eisenhower Matrix has 4 quadrants based on urgency (0-100) and importance (0-100):

Quadrant	Urgency	Importance	Action
Q1: Do First	High (>50)	High (>50)	Urgent + Important → Do immediately
Q2: Schedule	Low (≤50)	High (>50)	Not Urgent + Important → Plan for later
Q3: Delegate	High (>50)	Low (≤50)	Urgent + Not Important → Delegate
Q4: Eliminate	Low (≤50)	Low (≤50)	Not Urgent + Not Important → Drop it

Task Format for Bulk Create

[
  {"description": "Fix login bug", "urgency": 90, "importance": 85},
  {"description": "Update docs", "urgency": 30, "importance": 70}
]

Integration with OpenClaw

Heartbeat Check

Add to HEARTBEAT.md to periodically check priority tasks:

Check Quadrants priority tasks and remind user of urgent items

Cron Reminder

Schedule daily task briefings via cron jobs.

Natural Language Mapping

When users say things like:

• "加个任务" / "add a task" → create
• "今天做什么" / "what should I do today" → priority
• "完成了" / "done" / "mark complete" → complete
• "看看项目" / "show projects" → projects
• "任务概览" → overview

Infer urgency/importance from context when not specified:

• Bug fixes, deadlines → high urgency
• Strategy, planning → high importance, low urgency
• Nice-to-have → low both
