Claude Delegator

This tool will delegate tasks in todoist to a claude agent when you tag a task with "delegate" or message a telegram bot with a task.

My goal for this project is to move towards treating LLMs as employees I can delegate to instead of as a thought-partner or a tool I have to interact with if I want it to do something for me.

For the first test, I had it submit a purchase request for my club at UChicago, and it did well enough that I thought it’d be worth it to build this out.

The system interacts with the user through a Telegram chat and uses the Anthropic API as the engine for tasks. The chat with the agent can be treated as a traditional chat until you send “go” in a single chat which will then activate the agent to carry out its plans with your feedback. There’s two ways to give it a task. You can use “new: ” and then give it a task in the telegram chat. Or you can tag a todoist task with delegate.

It does great at research tasks (expected) but can also do more manual labor like booking flights. It used a headed browser so it may ask you to step in to complete things. For example, it may ask for a login or for credit card information. You can step in and provide it and then have it finish out the task. You could also provide it with this information through Telegram.
