TL;DR
CLI skill that creates, tracks, and manages Lark/Feishu tasks, subtasks, and reminders.
§01

What it is

Lark CLI Skill: Tasks is a command-line skill for the Lark/Feishu CLI that lets you create todos, track progress, manage subtasks, assign team members, and set reminders without leaving the terminal. It is part of the Lark CLI ecosystem with 200+ commands and 19 AI Agent Skills.

The skill targets developers and team leads who use Lark or Feishu for project management and want to interact with their task system programmatically or through AI agents.

§02

How it saves time or tokens

Switching between the terminal and the Lark web interface to create or update tasks breaks flow. This skill keeps you in the terminal, where you can script task creation as part of CI/CD pipelines, post-deployment checklists, or daily standup routines. The structured output can be piped into other tools. The token estimate for this workflow is approximately 500 tokens.

Common pitfalls

  • Task permissions depend on your Lark app scopes; ensure the task read/write scopes are enabled in the Lark Open Platform console
  • Subtask nesting depth is limited by the Lark API; deep hierarchies should be flattened into separate task lists
  • Reminder delivery depends on the assignee's notification settings in Lark; verify notifications are not muted for task updates

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this skill to manage tasks for my whole team?+

Yes. You can assign tasks to any team member by email or Lark user ID. Task visibility follows your organization's Lark permissions, so team members see tasks assigned to them in their Lark task inbox.

Does this work with both Lark and Feishu?+

Yes. The Lark CLI supports both Lark (international) and Feishu (China mainland) platforms. Your authentication configuration determines which platform is used. The tasks skill works identically on both.

Can I automate task creation in CI/CD?+

Yes. Since this is a CLI tool, you can call it from GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or any CI/CD pipeline. For example, create a post-deployment task to verify the release, or generate tasks from test failures.

How do reminders work?+

Reminders are set using ISO 8601 datetime format with the --reminder flag during task creation. The reminder is delivered as a Lark notification to the assignee at the specified time.

Can AI agents like Claude Code use this skill?+

Yes. Claude Code can run lark-cli commands directly in the terminal. You can ask Claude to create tasks, check progress, or update deadlines as part of a development workflow conversation.
