Task Lists

• ⏰ Urgent
• 🎯 Important
• 🎉 Fun
• ✅ To-Do List
• Old Google Keep reminders

Usage Notes

• Always run gtasks list first to get task IDs before updating/completing/deleting.
• List names with emoji must be quoted: gtasks list "⏰ Urgent"
• Multiple task IDs can be passed to complete and delete.
• Always confirm with the user before deleting tasks.
• The --yes flag skips confirmation prompts (use only when user explicitly says to skip).
