Connect your Claude

Let your own Anthropic Claude read and edit your Workr tasks — straight from Claude on your computer. Ask Claude to add a task, tick one off, tidy up a project, and it shows up in Workr.

Opt-in, off by default, your data stays yours. Nothing is shared until you switch this on inside the Workr app and tap through a consent screen. Connecting Claude is a Workr Premium feature; disconnecting and deleting your data are always free. You can disconnect at any time, and your tasks on your device and in iCloud are never touched.

How to set it up

Two steps — one in the Workr app, one in Claude. You sign in with the same Apple ID on both sides so they connect to each other.

  1. In the Workr app: open Settings → Connect your Claude, read the consent screen, and sign in. This puts a private mirror of your tasks in the cloud so Claude has something to read and write. (It is created only when you do this, and removed when you disconnect.)
  2. In Claude (claude.ai or the Claude app, on your computer): go to Settings → Connectors → "Add custom connector", paste the connector link below, and sign in with the same Apple ID you used in the Workr app.

The connector link

Paste this into Claude's "Add custom connector" box:

What you can ask Claude to do

Once connected, just talk to Claude in plain language. Here is everything it can do today, with an example of what to say:

Tasks

What it doesExample prompt
List tasks
See your tasks — open (default), done, all, or what's in your Trash. Can search by title, or narrow to one project.
"List my open Workr tasks" · "What's in my Workr trash?"
Add a task
Create a task with a priority, project, due date, repeat schedule, reminder, notes, and mark it as "Doing" — any or all at once.
"Add 'Buy milk' to Workr, due tomorrow, high priority"
Update a task
Change anything about an existing task — title, notes, priority, project, due date, repeat, reminder, or pin it as "Doing."
"Move my 'Buy milk' task to Groceries and repeat it weekly"
Complete / reopen a task
Tick a task off, or bring it back to your open list.
"Mark 'Buy milk' as done in Workr"
Reorder a task
Move a task above or below another one in your list — just like dragging it by hand.
"Put 'Call the bank' at the top of my list"
Delete a task
Remove a task. It's a soft delete — it goes to Trash and is recoverable.
"Delete the 'Buy milk' task in Workr"
Restore a deleted task
Bring a task back out of Trash.
"Actually, bring back that 'Buy milk' task I deleted"
Permanently delete a task
Empty a task out of Trash for good — no undo. (The task must already be in Trash.)
"Permanently delete that old test task"

Projects

What it doesExample prompt
List projects
See the projects you've created.
"What projects do I have in Workr?"
Add a project
Create a new project to organise tasks into, optionally with a colour.
"Create a 'Groceries' project in Workr, make it green"
Rename or recolour a project"Rename my Work project to Career"
Delete a project
Its tasks aren't deleted — they move to Inbox. This can't be undone.
"Delete the Groceries project"

Templates — reusable multi-step plans

A template is an ordered checklist (e.g. "Onboard a new client") that Claude can build once and reuse. Starting a template creates a project and drops the first step in as a task; finishing each step reveals the next.

What it doesExample prompt
List templates"What Workr templates do I have?"
Add a template
Give it a name and an ordered list of steps, each with its own timing.
"Make a Workr template called 'New Client' — welcome email, kickoff call in a week, follow-up in a month"
Update a template
Rename it or change its steps.
"Add a step to my New Client template"
Start a template
Creates a project and puts the first step on your list.
"Start my New Client template"
Delete a template
Templates already started aren't affected.
"Delete my New Client template"
Changes apply on your next device sync. When you ask Claude to add, change, or remove something, Claude queues the change — the Workr app applies it the next time it syncs, so it isn't instant. Reading your tasks is always live.

This list of commands grows as Workr grows — new things you can ask Claude to do will appear here.
