Print Week

Generate a clean, printable Markdown view of upcoming TickTick tasks.

[GOAL]

Fetch tasks from TickTick and create a nicely formatted Markdown document grouped by day and tag, suitable for printing or quick reference.

[OUTPUT]

Saves to: Cockpit/Next-7-Days-Print.md

[PROCESS]

1. Fetch all tasks from TickTick

Use ticktick MCP: ticktick_filter_tasks with filter_criteria empty object

2. Parse and categorize tasks

Group tasks into:

• OVERDUE: Past due date, grouped by first tag
• Today through +7 days: Each day as a section

3. Format output

For each task show:

• Checkbox
• Priority indicator (exclamation marks for high/medium/low)
• Title
• Time if not all-day
• Project name in italics
• Tags as inline code

4. Generate Markdown

Process tasks with Python to:

• Parse dueDate timestamps
• Group by day and tag
• Format as clean markdown checklist
• Calculate days overdue for past-due tasks

5. Save output

Write to Cockpit/Next-7-Days-Print.md

[IMPORTANT]

• Project map: Fetch current projects via ticktick_get_all with search projects
• Tags: Only first tag is used for grouping (matches TickTick behavior)
• Overdue: Shown prominently at top with days overdue count
• Times: Only shown if task has specific time (not all-day)

[VARIANTS]

• print-week compact: Table format instead of list
• print-week html: Generate HTML for better print styling
