OpenTickly

AI Integration

Let Claude, Cursor, and other AI agents track your time, start and stop timers, and manage projects and tags through toggl-cli.

toggl-cli lets Claude Code, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, Codex, Cursor, and other AI agents use OpenTickly from the command line. They can track time, start and stop timers, and manage projects and tags for you.

It comes in two parts:

  • toggl: the command-line tool itself
  • SKILL.md: a skill file that teaches your agent how to use it

Install

npm install -g @correctroadh/toggl-cli

npx skills add CorrectRoadH/toggl-cli

Configure

The CLI works with both Toggl and OpenTickly, and talks to Toggl by default. Toggl only allows 30 API requests per hour, which an agent can use up in a minute, so we recommend using it with OpenTickly.

To point it at your instance, add --api-type opentoggl and --api-url when you log in:

toggl auth <YOUR_API_TOKEN> --api-type opentoggl --api-url https://your-instance.com/api/v9

You can find YOUR_API_TOKEN in the OpenTickly web app under your avatar → Profile → API Token.

Not sure what to do with it next? Practices & Workflow has a few real examples: letting the agent start timers, giving it your weekly plan, and a nightly AI review.
