Manage Things 3 via the `things` CLI on macOS (add/update projects+todos via URL scheme; read/search/list from the local Things database). Use when a user asks Moltbot to add a task to Things, list inbox/today/upcoming, search tasks, or inspect projects/areas/tags.

Use things to read your local Things database (inbox/today/search/projects/areas/tags) and to add/update todos via the Things URL scheme.
