Griply already has something many tools don’t: it feels designed around life planning, not just task management. That is exactly why API / MCP support would be so valuable.
With API or MCP access, Griply could become the central system for:
AI-assisted weekly reviews
turning reflections, notes, emails, or chats into structured tasks
goal and habit support through external tools
smarter prioritization and planning workflows
This would help users commit more deeply to Griply because it would allow Griply to stay the main source of truth while still working with modern AI tools like Claude.
Even a lightweight first version would be enough to unlock a lot of value:
personal API key
CRUD for tasks and subtasks
read/update for habits
basic read access to goals, lists, due dates, and statuses
This is one of the main features that would make me much more confident in building my full life-planning system in Griply.

I would really love an API or MCP server support so that I can use Griply with other tools, as Todoist, etc. support. This is the main thing I am missing to really commit to Griply in my daily use. Importantly, it would allow users to integrate as much or as little (or none) of these external tools.
Example uses cases I have (using an MCP server with e.g. Claude):
Auto-adding important tasks from my email or WhatsApp messages to Griply
Cleaning up or identifying high-priority tasks
Helping with weekly or longer-term reflection based on completed tasks

Hi Griply team! 👋
A public Griply API (personal use via API key) would be a huge unlock — especially for automation and AI workflows.
Read basic data (lists, task details, due dates, statuses, etc.)
Why it matters:
This would let users connect Griply to tools like cloud functions / bots / AI agents to automatically generate well-structured tasks and subtasks (e.g., from notes, voice, planning prompts), while keeping everything inside Griply.
Even a first version with just CRUD for tasks + subtasks, secured by a personal API key, would already be incredibly valuable.
Thanks for considering — I’d definitely use this. 🙌

While I love the natural pausing built into Griply where we get the chance to stop and evaluate elements of our lives - keeping Griply from turning into the overwhelming dumping ground of other apps, there are still times where I’d like to programmatically make changes based on automation designed around my most important inputs: an urgent email from my boss or a bill payment reminder. As more people adopt tools like agentic AI assistants or even n8n without AI, they’ll want ways to tie into their favorite life planning app.

The reason for me to switch to Griply is visualization. I want to see the graph of completed tasks and all that. This is THE feature for me.
If I could now also access the data via an API to have an LED bar light up in my room showing my progress, that would be absolutely amazing!
I’d like to specify that I want an API and NOT an MCP. Thank you :)

Imagine all the possibilities… I could change my phone home screen background according to task completion and so on…

Hi @András Iványi , thank you for the offer! API and MCP are Up next so development should start in the near future.

Hi Griply team! 👋
A public Griply API (personal use via API key) would be a huge unlock — especially for automation and AI workflows.
What I’d love to be able to do via API:
Create / update / complete tasks and sub-tasks
Manage habits (create, check-in/complete, read status)
Read basic data (lists, task details, due dates, statuses, etc.)
Why it matters:
This would let users connect Griply to tools like cloud functions / bots / AI agents to automatically generate well-structured tasks and subtasks (e.g., from notes, voice, planning prompts), while keeping everything inside Griply.
