## What it does

The server provides 16 tools for managing Apple Reminders, including `remi_lists`, `remi_add`, and `remi_today`. It parses conversational dates, handles recurrence, and looks up lists using fuzzy string matching.

Three distinct layers run underneath. EventKit manages standard task queries, ReminderKit creates sections, and direct SQLite updates sync list members across iCloud. Swift helpers keep execution fast without web wrappers.

Section syncing fails completely without Full Disk Access for your terminal. You will also need macOS 13 or newer, Node.js 18+, and Xcode Command Line Tools.
