Control Things with AppleScript
I let the real world mark tasks as complete in my task manager. In this video, I show how a simple AppleScript can complete tasks in Things (or OmniFocus) automatically. Three real examples from my daily routine: meditation tracking with the Calm app, workout completion via Shortcuts, and file-sorting with Hazel. I also share Drafts actions that generate the AppleScript for any task.
