How it works

Connected in a minute. In your control after that.

    Open Connections, find Checkvist and paste an API key from your Checkvist account settings. Cicada checks it works before saving it.

    Full, Ask first or Read-only, for the whole workspace. Share Checkvist with the team, or keep it under each person's own login.

  3. Ask from anywhere

    Text your agent on iMessage or WhatsApp, message it in Slack or the app, or put a Checkvist job on a schedule: every morning, every Friday.

Works with your other tools

Checkvist, together with the rest of your stack.

Ask for an outcome that spans apps and your agent pulls from each one, cross-checks them and sends back one answer.

Questions

Checkvist and Cicada, answered.

Does Cicada integrate with Checkvist?

How do I connect Checkvist?

Open Connections, find Checkvist and paste an API key from your Checkvist account settings. Cicada checks it works before saving it.

What can Cicada do in Checkvist?

16 actions: 6 that read from Checkvist and 10 that change things in it, for example search tasks, get checklist, get task tree. It picks the right ones for what you ask and chains them with your other apps.

Can I stop Cicada changing things in Checkvist?

Yes. In Connections, set Checkvist to Read-only and no agent in your workspace can create, change or delete anything in it; it can still read. Ask first lets it act but makes it check with you before each change.

Can I ask about Checkvist from my phone?

Yes. Text your agent on iMessage or WhatsApp, or message it in Slack or the app. It answers in the same thread, and it can run Checkvist jobs on a schedule, like every morning at 8.

Is my Checkvist data safe?

Your Checkvist login or key is stored on the server and never appears in a conversation. Disconnecting removes it. Every action an agent takes is in your activity log, and your data isn't used to train models.

One teammate. The output of a team.
