The quiet layer on top of Superlist that thinks about your tasks so you don't have to.
Every morning it tells you what's on, what closed yesterday, and what's been sitting too long. Captures tasks wherever you are. Stays out of the way the rest of the time.
You open Claude Code. Before you type anything:
☀️ Tuesday morning. 3 of 4 closed yesterday, 1 carries over.
Working
· Proposal sent
· Called the accountant
Today (4)
Follow up with Sarah · 3 days overdue
Review lease renewal · moved twice
Book dentist
Pick up dry cleaning
**Start with:** Follow up with Sarah (3 days overdue)
Any other task to add?
You type "remind me to book annual review by friday" — captured, dated, routed to Work. That's the whole morning ritual.
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/superlist-assist:todo |
Capture. Type one task, scan the conversation, or paste text to extract from. |
/superlist-assist:brief |
Today's view. Auto-surfaces the first time you open Claude Code each day. |
/superlist-assist:recap [week] |
Summary of any window — week, month, since Monday. |
/superlist-assist:review |
Walk through stale tasks one at a time. Auto-surfaces on Mondays. |
/superlist-assist:config |
Change settings, lists, thresholds. |
Autocomplete gets you there fast — type /su and tab through. Natural language works too:
> what's today look like → brief
> add call dentist tomorrow → captured
> what have I been ignoring → review
> show me last week → recap week
Requirements: Claude Code + a Superlist account.
In any Claude Code session, run:
/plugin marketplace add superlistapp/superlist-assist
/plugin install superlist-assist@superlist-assist
Claude Code will prompt you to authorize the Superlist MCP the plugin ships with. Approve it — a browser tab opens for Superlist OAuth. That's the whole setup.
When new versions ship, pull them with:
/plugin update superlist-assist@superlist-assist
Commit-SHA versioning during beta means every push is a new version. Update as often as you like.
Superlist Assist will run onboarding (one-time setup, about 60 seconds). It asks what areas you want to organize, creates your lists, and gets out of the way.
- Built on the official Superlist MCP
- State lives in
~/.claude/superlist-assist/— nothing leaves your machine - Every task Superlist Assist creates carries a hidden
[sb:<id>]marker for idempotency - Daily snapshots power the "N of M closed yesterday" line in
/brief
After install, edit ~/.claude/superlist-assist/config.json to change list names or thresholds. Or use /config interactively.
Default behaviors (all changeable via /config):
- Morning brief fires at your chosen time each day — if Claude Code isn't open at that time, it surfaces automatically the next time you open it
- Review surfaces on Mondays if not already run that week
- A day is flagged "overloaded" at 5 tasks
- A task is flagged "stuck" after 3 reschedules
Cowork: the SessionStart fallback works in any Cowork session. The
scheduled cron trigger fires into the session it was registered from — if
you switch to a new Cowork environment, run /config [8] to re-register it.
Superlist Assist supports two ways to structure your tasks in Superlist (switch anytime with /config [7]):
One list per area (default) — browse each area separately in the sidebar (e.g. Personal, Work, Health).
Single Brain list — one list with sections and labels per area. Cleaner sidebar, filter by label.
Active development. Commands implemented: /todo, /brief, /recap, /review, /config.
Planned for V2.1: notes and Quick Refs (pending headers support in the Superlist MCP), coaching push-back, personality memory.
