Use Plan my day to turn today into a short list you can update as you go. It takes about two minutes. Open @armoredkitten_bot in a private Telegram chat; the list works without enabling reminders.
Open and add a task
Tap Plan my day in the private chat, or send /today. The card shows today's list and its progress. Choose Add task, enter one short task, then confirm. The list holds up to ten task titles for the current local day.
If you prefer a command, send `/today add Call Sam`. Use a brief title you are comfortable storing in the companion. Task titles are encrypted at rest and are not sent to the AI model.
While the bot is waiting for a task title, send /cancel to leave without saving. Reopen /today to see the current list if an old card or button looks stale.
Update progress
When you finish a task, tap its row, shown as ⬜ followed by the task title. The row changes to ✅ and the progress bar updates. Tap that row again to reopen the task if you marked it by mistake. Use Remove beside a task to take it off today's list. The bot tracks only what you tap; it does not know whether a task happened unless you tell it.
Example: add “Send the draft”, “Take a short walk” and “Call Sam”. Finish the walk and tap the row ⬜ Take a short walk. It should change to ✅ Take a short walk, and the card should show one completed task out of three. This example is only a demonstration; use tasks that fit your day.
Choose whether to get reminders
The checklist works without reminders. To opt in, open the list and choose Enable reminders. If enabled, the companion can send up to four gentle nudges in your local time. Reminder messages omit task names and stop when all tasks are complete. You can turn reminders off from the same list.
Check Settings if the reminder time seems wrong. Set your time zone by typing the local time you see; the companion uses it to schedule local-time messages. Enabling checklist reminders is a separate choice from daily notes and conversation starters.
Fix a stale card or undo a tap
If an old task card no longer matches today, send /today and use the fresh card. If you completed a task by mistake, tap its ✅ row again to reopen it. Choose Remove beside a task when you no longer want to track it. If reminders are unwelcome, choose Pause reminders in the list; that does not pause other message types.
The daily checklist is private to your companion account. It is not a promise, score or measure of your worth. Add only short, non-sensitive task titles.
